I choose me, I’m not sorry. Selfless sharing and sacrificing for you yet I’m starving for more. Redirecting complicated conversations because the moment you have to be transparent, it makes you uncomfortable. We’re vulnerable but neither of us is being completely honest. Protecting precious feelings…I lied about wanting to see you the other day. Caught up in your world when I should’ve left. I’m empty - drained so much love into you but failed to reserve enough for myself. That’s my fault…I know better now. I love you but I gotta love me more.
Peace,

I’ve been married for almost 18 years. You really have to prove to the other person that you’re in it for the long haul. Everyday we both have to choose to be here. Choose to stay. Choose each other. Be honest when you need alone time. When you’re depressed. When I’ve hurt you. Apologies when you do the hurting. Heal yourself and I’ll support you, and you support me while I heal myself. We must be kind to one another, always. Once you hit that sweet spot in love, it’s amazing, warts and all.
One thing I’ve noticed is that people try to be what they think their partner wants. A relationship made up of two pretenders will end in flames. 🔥
Truth and glad to be here ✊🏽
