BRIE

Literally aspired to be the woman who came home, kicked off her Jimmy choos and sulked about her problems with a glass of wine and Chinese takeout. 😭 She wasn't perfect, but she was well off and successful.

If a relationship is going to actually work… you have to remember something. You’re two completely different people. Two different upbringings. Two different pasts. Two different ways of thinking, feeling, and handling things. And then somehow… you’re trying to build one life together. Of course it’s not always going to be easy. You’re not going to agree on everything. You’re not always going to see things the same way. You’re not always going to react the same. And that doesn’t mean something is wrong. That’s just reality. The problem isn’t the differences… it’s how you handle them. Because when things don’t line up, that’s when it really shows what kind of connection you have. Do you listen… or do you just react? Do you actually try to understand each other… or are you just trying to prove a point? Do you communicate… or let pride take over? That’s what makes or breaks it. Because a healthy relationship isn’t about agreeing all the time. It’s about respecting each other enough to work through the moments you don’t. To protect the connection instead of attacking it. To choose each other… even when it’s uncomfortable. That’s what real love looks like. Not perfect… just two people willing to figure it out together.

Unpopular opinion: hide your intelligence. Let people underestimate you. Not everyone deserves access to your mind, and being underestimated is sometimes the real advantage.

Y'all do realize the only forced sexuality is heterosexual, right?

i love when the sky looks like strawberry lemonade

i’m actually really fun once you get to know me (takes 2-4 years)

Unpopular opinion: If someone lacks manners, self-awareness, common sense, emotional intelligence, morals, or basic consideration, they don't belong in your inner circle. No drama. No excuses. Just standards. Protect your peace like it's a job. Because it is.

Mind you she’s not annoying at all. Yall just don’t want fat people to talk about how society treats fat people. The way people treat her is so disgusting and vile.

@FaithNwb Left.

As a beginner, which one should i go for? Left or right?

The intimacy of feeling safe enough to be vulnerable. And knowing it won’t be weaponized later.

Nobody talks about this…

“I'm a dominant submissive in the majority of my life.” —Jill Scott in a new interview “I'm strong-willed, but if I see the need to be quiet and listen, I will shut up. If I feel the need to follow the path, I will follow the path. But if I don't feel moved by something, I will make my own way. I will follow my own path. I have to be moved. And that's with everything. So I appreciate the time when I actually can submit. Now I've learned with grace and age that I cannot submit until I can see that I can submit. It can't just be words. It can't be an action. It has to be fair, firm, and consistent. I want to be able to close my eyes while you drive. That's important to me. All this whole life has been about me finding and maintaining a certain level of peace. So I need to know that you are who you say you are, even when nobody's looking, you know, I need that.” Full story: instagram.com/reel/DXGGbUuje…

Trying to hold someone hostage to who they used to be or the things they used to do is so miserable. If it’s clear they’ve exhibited real growth, you just look like a hater trying to force an old narrative

spot the differences 😭

Every single thing you want in life is on the other side of something that sucks. That suck might be 100 workouts, 100 bland meals, 100 hours of work, or 100 hard conversations. Embrace it as the cost of entry. The answers you seek are found in the actions you avoid.
