Friendship is so weird because I watched you forgive your partner over a hundred times for serious things, but one small issue happens between us and suddenly we never speak again.

Not all hurt people hurt people. Some turn into alchemists, turning pain into purpose.

i think my 🚩 is that, i never know how to talk about my feelings. i talk to myself in my head a lot about how i feel & i explain it so well, but getting it to actually come out my mouth is so hard.

Please tell me I’m not the only one Who pulls out my phone to check the time, Puts it back in my pocket, And immediately has absolutely no idea what time it is.

I don't have energy to make someone stay in my life anymore. Stay or not, that's your choice.

So much of adulthood is just grieving in secret..... grieving ex lovers, grieving dead friendships, grieving your parents sinking into old age, grieving the person you thought you'd grow into, grieving cities you never got to live in, grieving parts of you that couldn't survive.

it sucks because for a minute i was happy, for a minute i was getting better, for a minute i had hope, but in a minute i lost it all again

I can handle someone telling me I hurt them. I’ll listen. Validate their feelings. Show accountability. Even if I don’t fully agree, I can see their perspective. But when you tell someone how they hurt YOU and they attack you, deflect, and turn it around on you? That’s guilt.

I think one of the most humbling lines to live by is that "if someone tells you you hurt them, you don't get to decide that you didn't. It's not a difficult thing to take a few steps back and admit that your actions have caused harm to someone you care about."

People knowing your heart and still choosing to do you dirty is a different kind of evil

trauma may help explain why someone behaves a certain way, but it should never be used to justify manipulation, emotional indifference, or narcissistic treatment of genuinely kind people.

Them: "Why dont you tell anyone your struggling?" Me: "Because it's like talking to the police anything I say will be used against me"

nobody talks about how exhausting it is to live in that space between “things will get better” and “i can’t handle this anymore.” it’s like your emotions are constantly swinging. leaving you both hopeful and defeated in the same day

Some people will use you as a target for misplaced anger because they don't know how to sit with their own disappointment.

Nothing feels worse than talking to someone and realizing halfway through that the other person is not really listening and you’re just talking to yourself. You can tell they’re not engaged anymore and now you’re just trying to end the conversation as fast as possible.
