understand that each person has their own boundaries. no asking why, no asking how come. no questions are needed.
just understand and respect that.

Just Ask.
Instead of spiraling and overthinking every little thing, just ask. Ask your partner / your friend / whoever’s got you confused.
You’re not annoying. You’re not crazy. You’re just trying to understand. And honestly? Most people are chill and actually willing to explain if you just give them the chance.
So skip the mind drama. Ask the damn question. Peace unlocked.

anybody else tired of spelling every little thing out? we are spelling way too much out these days and it's a lot. we need a bit more opacity over transparency! not every situation calls on us to explain ourselves. most of the time we can just shrug and keep it moving. as a society it'd be amazing if we can learn to make space for unencumbered silence and repose in a gentle and tender way. let go and let live

IDK most thread answers here seem idealistic. Sometimes people know exactly how they are contributing to the conflict and are counting on your grace to bulldoze whatever it is they want to achieve. Don't ever acuse or jump to conclusions but always respectfully lay out their words / behavior back to them and basically let them know that you already know what the fuck is up. Maybe they are doing it somewhat unconsciously, maybe you understand, however an empathetic but straightforward read of what you are seeing and hearing from them reflected back goes a long way. sometimes you even come back stronger

i have always known this. that people come and go. but it was only recently that this statement really… struck me. i guess that no matter how much you want people to stay in your life, sometimes it‘s just inevitable. though it was hard at first to let go of ‘your person’, i also realized that relationships are maintained by more than just one person.
so no matter how much you want to keep those people in your life, to save the relationship and connection that you have, at the end of the day, they also have a say in what they feel and what they want. and if what they want is to be out of your life, then the best thing that you could do is to accept and respect that.
it’s the best thing that you could do. not only for them, but also for you.

nothing beats the aftermath feeling of hanging out with your homies that you haven’t seen for a long while, knowing that you had a well spent day with the right people.
my heart is full.

just turned 23 today!
i feel like you always got these existential crisis in your early twenties. (or is that just me?)
but the number 23 is particularly such a strange age.
you feel confused about in which end of the spectrum that you fell in. you are no longer considered to be a teen, but you also don’t have much of a responsibility to be called an adult just yet. you’re an in-between.
i guess i can relate to when mark hoppus sang what’s my age again, which legit sums up the whole confusion in being the age of 23. of still feeling like you’re not an adult just yet, but also forced to act your age.
peter pan complex really does exist huh?
