@onlywithn life is either the warm presence of love or the long shadow it casts when it walks away. even our anger, our distance, our numbness they’re just different ways of missing it.

@sereianecdoche anxiously attached people don’t just feel abandoned when someone leaves. they feel erased, like they never really existed in that person’s life the way they existed in theirs.

Losing a connection due to a misunderstanding or third party, is the worst, especially when you're an anxiously attached person. Nobody talks about the paranoia and sleepless nights that come after they're gone. You lay awake, sitting in your bed thinking how little meaning or—

@el_archive7999 people who treat others as disposable are usually terrified of being disposable themselves.

we really need to stop acting like treating people as disposable is emotional maturity. the whole “i don’t care if we stop talking” attitude, especially towards people who have genuinely shown up for you, has always felt like a lack of depth to me.

dignity isn't something you explain to someone who took it. it's something you take back by saying nothing at all.

@bluewmist the decision starts it. the discipline keeps it.

you can literally wake up one day and be like “actually, fuck everything ab my past and the self-sabotaging identity i had” and decide to live an entirely new life and be some1 who always fucking wins. it doesn’t take a feeling or breakthrough moment or epiphany. only a decision.

@rumilyrics silence isn’t rude. it’s self-respect.

Normalize never speaking to people again after they disrespected you.

@RobertGreene anger doesn’t just make you loud. it makes you stupid. the decisions you make in that state are the ones you’ll regret the longest.

When you have success, be extra wary. When you are angry, take no action. When you are fearful, know you are going to exaggerate the dangers you face.

@Abdulghafarmus2 you keep dissecting their silence like it holds some secret meaning. but the truth is simpler than you want it to be.

you’re overthinking their behavior, meanwhile they’re not even thinking about you like that.

you don't owe anyone access to your peace just because they used to know you.

@BonesawMD some people don’t want the truth. they want the version of the story that finally makes you less than them. a false allegation just gives them permission to admit it out loud.

If you're ever involved in a false allegation it'll never be the person who made it up that carries the full weight of your despise. Instead, you'll see many people around you clearly 'want' the negative thing about you to be true. Unforgettable experience

@luckygirldotcom someone who wants to talk to you will make it easy. someone who doesn’t will make it feel like work.

someone not texting you back all day is a clear sign that they don’t like you like that, your phone is in your hand damn near all day and that mf ain’t think about you once, it’s the most obvious shit ever

@karefreekeri most people who need to feel superior aren't actually competing with you. they're still fighting a battle from high school that no one else is even playing anymore.

I wish people really got to the root of why they need to feel superior or that they’re better than the next person. Why is that so important to you?

there are hearts that never learned how to stay. only how to visit.

@AfsaRosette and they'll call you picky or egotistical for protecting yourself.

@thewatersideboi they don’t just waste your time. they train you to settle for scraps and convince you it’s normal.

The most dangerous person to be with is someone who doesn't want to commit to you but does not want to lose you. People like that are dangerous; please stay away from them. They are users.

being loved feels warm. but loving someone pulls you closer to the truth of who they really are, and who you’re becoming in the process.

@onlystresstoday you can endure difficulty, but you don’t have to endure disrespect.

i never leave when it gets hard, I leave when it gets inconsiderate, inconsistent, and disrespectful.

the moment you start treating people exactly as they treat you is the moment your peace stops depending on their effort.

sometimes the smartest thing you can do is stay quiet…not because you don’t have anything to say, but because you know how much your honesty would hurt someone who isn’t ready for it.

@IM_YARA4 when you stop trying to teach them your language and start learning theirs… that’s when it finally feels like home.

Men and women don’t fall in love the same way.. and that’s exactly why it’s so complicated, and so beautiful. A woman often falls in love through ‘consistency’. It’s the little things. The good morning texts. The way you show up when you said you would. The feeling of safety, of being chosen again and again without having to question it. A man often falls in love through ‘experience’. It’s how he feels around you. The peace. The admiration.The sense that he can be himself without being judged, and still be respected. She listens for effort. He feels for peace. She needs emotional security to open up. He needs emotional acceptance to stay open. And here’s where it gets messy.. When she doesn’t feel consistency, she pulls back. When he feels pressure instead of peace, he pulls away. So both people end up protecting themselves… instead of understanding each other. Love isn’t about who loves “harder”It’s about learning how the other person loves and meeting them there. Because the right connection isn’t confusing. It’s two people choosing to understand each other, even when it’s easier not to. And when that happens? It doesn’t feel like guessing. It feels like home.

@Freonat true...honest evil is way easier to navigate than fake goodness.

I much prefer someone who is evil with their chest than someone who pretends to be a good person when they know they're not
