Not a lot of us talk about this but it needs to be a reoccurring conversation… especially with the society we live in. No shade to humans on earth right now but I’m gonna come out and say it... y’all (we) are toxic. If I can accept it, so can you.
I am FINALLY in a healthy relationship and let’s just say it was not all smooth sailings from jump. I had numerous conversations with trust worthy friends and family memebrs to open my eyes to what I unfortunately incorrectly labeled as… I don’t even know the word. I’ll just jump right into it.
I have been in more than enough “situationships” that morphed my judgement to misread certain things = RED FLAGS. The relationship I am in now started off with 99.9% honesty (I’ll explain later). We both expressed that we weren’t looking for anymore games or time to be wasted — but work towards a serious worthwhile relationship. In my past, idk about you but I rarely ever had that conversation in the beginning and always lied to myself that I was just going with the flow aka getting played without labels. I say this because the calmness of my current relationship was VERY new to me. Me being the overthinker that I am labeled that calmness as boredom. Now hear me out: I wasn’t ACTUALLY bored. What I was doing was comparing how I would feel in the beginning of my “situationships” which usually entailed a factor one would call: A CHASE…
