Now before i serenade you all with my little sob story I wanna make something perfectly clear: I am well aware that billions of people have lives way worse than i could ever fathom.
With that out of the way, lets talk about my little rough spot.
We’ve all been there, you’ve just met “The One”. The one who you are certain you will marry, aka every person you’ve ever dated. The relationship and connection started off pretty strong and seemed to only get stronger. Few fights here and there but nothing world ending, mostly petty shit.
Then it starts to get worse, the fights more frequent and more personal. Not simple stuff or valid issues, but attacks on character and overall degradation. The person you loved with all your heart seems no different than some shitty sandbox bully. The person who you know loves you more than anyone or anything in the world, yet their actions leave you wondering. Its a fucking awful feeling when you confront them and they realize that it hurts you, even worse when they defend it with a reasonable and logical explanation. You find yourself between respecting yourself with boundaries or letting yourself get walked over. Its a no-win scenario.
So to anyone entering a relationship who reads this, yes actions speak louder than words but use your fucking words properly too. You never really know how what you say affects someone mentally. If someone means a lot to you then you better fucking make sure they never doubt it for even a second. Even if it feels like it doesn’t need to be stated. So many people barely get so much as a compliment, most of their interactions (if they even take place) are negative. Treat people how you would want to be treated.
