A narcissist never comes back because they love you. They come back to see if you’re still weak enough to reopen the door. They remember the damage. They just never cared.
Behind closed doors, I've done so much for people... real help, real support, no cameras, no credit. So when my name come up, don't just run with whatever story sounds good... Tell that part too! Tell them how I showed up when I ain't even have to. Tell them how I poured into people who couldn't pour back. Tell how I stayed solid, even when it wasn't returned. Don't be quick to speak on the surface, but quiet about what really went on. Keep it real all the way or don't speak on my name at all. ‼️
Like when people tell me my son is an amazing kid or that I’m a good mom, I kinda freeze up lol cause like damn wait, I really am though… he so legit!!! And it’s not that I don’t already know this, I’m just constantly in motion, curating a space and dynamic where he can continue to thrive.
I’m such a good mommmm UGH 😭🥹
I be so busy just showing up for him and fighting for him and doing the work and going through the motions everyday, I often don’t have time to really sit with the thought. But I love when God and the universe bless me with that reminder and force me to sit with it.
