“Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.”

it’s okay if going after what you want takes time. it’s okay if going after what you want takes multiple steps. it’s all going to be okay as long as you’re patient with your dreams.

sometimes people will make you feel stupid for being kind. this makes it hard to stay kind. it is important that you do anyway. if you have become unkind, it is important to remember that you can become kind again. it's a skill, not an inherent trait.

We give ourselves over to those who can't fully receive us.

Sometimes, we think we're doing them a favor by continuing to give, not realizing that they don't have the tools necessary to handle what we are in their lives.

Or, they may just be completely ambivalent to your presence.

Whatever the case, this is not right for us in the long run. Eventually, we can begin to feel as though we are not enough despite truly knowing what all we bring to the table.

Any connection that makes you feel this way is not one that you need to keep yourself in long term. If you continue to try communication what it is that you need and do not see any change or effort, you must abandon the situation for your own wellbeing.
