A Process.

22/MNL. She was a broken masterpiece. Artistically beautiful and poetically damaged. An ever-lasting chaotic tornado of magnificence and divine. Ataraxia.

So why do you think you are suited to this position?

What are your achievements so far?

What are your ambitions. in reference previous education and work history?

If you can't control what's happening, control the way you respond to the situation. That's where the power is.

You are worthy, even when you don’t feel like it.

“Dear you, sometimes we have to let go of someone who matters to us not because we want to but because we have to, and it’s the right thing to do. Let us remember that we can’t force anyone to love us, we can’t beg someone to stay when he wants to leave and be with someone else, and sometimes this is what life teaches. Letting go of things that is already out of hand.”

I allowed you to hurt me by already knowing your heart would never be mine.

[4am-reflections]

real love is not like the poetry. it is not i love you spat down each other’s throats or finding a reason to live again because you found this one person. It is so much simpler than that. real love is telling them to go back to sleep because it is still early and you know they need it, even if you want them to be awake with you. It’s realizing it won’t always be easy but still choosing them every day and wanting to be the very best for them. that’s it, it’s not as deep as you think.

This is your reminder that if someone uses the words “that was a test/I was testing you/you passed” in reference to their weird behavior or to brush off a fight you had with them?

That’s a red flag.

RUN THE OTHER WAY.

If they do something that makes you angry and you react accordingly and they tell you “I was testing you to see how’d you react” they are PURPOSEFULLY baiting you.

If they allow you to think something awful is happening (usually like they are cheating) and you blow up about it and they say “I was checking to see if you are jealous” they are PURPOSEFULLY trying to push your buttons.

If they invade your privacy (checking your phone, sneaking on your computer) and say “I was testing you, you passed, there’s nothing on your phone” when you catch them, they are PURPOSEFULLY going out of their way to find something to pick a fight.

Healthy relationships do not involve partners that manufacture “tests” to check the other partners commitment.

Healthy relationships do not include pushing the other to the edge just to see what they will do.

Healthy relationships DO NOT INCLUDE excusing terrible behavior by saying “I was testing to see if you loved me”

Labeling actions as “this was me forcing you to prove you feel (this way) by making sure you will act the way I think you should” is manipulative at best and can very easily turn abusive in about a million different ways.

Fail their test. Walk away. Leave them to their toxicity.

It’s not worth it.

“Pop quizzes” are for school, not for relationships.

“Oh, honey, I truly thought that maybe I could have held on for us both. Honestly, you could have kept your head above the waves, but ‘that’s no fun’. You need to suffocate to feel okay. And, baby, I should let go, but I, too, like submerging my heart until my heartache melts into pain and we’re dancing mindlessly in the middle of the street.”

“Even when you hurt me, I declared that I loved you beyond reason as if it justified the pain you inflicted. But one day I realized there really was no reason, so I stopped loving.”
