last night i had a difficult conversation with someone and i was able to fully say how they made me feel: mad, sad, etc. and i told them what i wished for even though i knew it wasn’t what they wanted. after you get past the fear, keeping things to yourself is so much harder than being honest. and both people feel so much better regardless of what was said<3 proud of myself !

You should Literally never regret getting a truth off your chest. The people around you deserve to know and you will feel less alone when you introduce them to something you’ve kept close. Like here’s something I’ve been ruminating on, here’s my impression, here’s my little friend… Honesty is good

rid yourself of the need for saving face with the use of therapy words. of course there’s nuance here, but not every conflict with a friend calls for boundary setting, flag raising, and accountability. accept the fact that humans are inherently flawed and that we’re all just doing our best.

can be emotionally laborious but it is almost always worth it imo. telling someone how they made you feel is an act of kindness both to yourself and to the person who made you feel shitty. people will often surprise you with their responses

i like to watch this movie every six months or so as a reminder to stop obsessing over people who are clearly not interested in you (me: guilty) its from 2009 so it did not age perfectly and its super heteronormative ofc but regardless, a story i need to hear
