Hyper-independence is a trauma response where we: rarely or never ask for help, believe no one cares for us, and give up on making any connections at all because we believe eventually we’ll be abandoned.
I hope I marry into a family that’s huge on time together, like parties, cookouts. A family that loves me & treats me like their own. That’s kinda a big deal for me
at the end of the day, I will make the best decision for my kids and myself. that may mean that I lose some people on the way. but that’s God telling me they aren’t a part of my journey
