your friends think about you, y'know? they smile and think about goofy shit you've said. they pray for you. they smell your perfume in a shop and think of you fondly. they tell anecdotes involving you to strangers and friends. they remember the way you hug or bite or high five and want to repeat it with you. they love you. i promise.

The abuse you endured was not on your terms.

But your healing can be.

Your healing is for you, no one else, and you get to decide what’s right for you when it comes to healing.

Your needs are not too much. You’re allowed to communicate what you don’t like or what you would like more of, even if people already do a lot for you. You’re important and not annoying at all. Communication is so important and most people enjoy getting friendly feedback. Especially with your partner, it’s always an ongoing conversation about needs and wants. Be brave and talk about it.
