Because you aren’t stopping to acknowledge everything you’ve already accomplished. 

You’ve been in a similar headspace before. And you’ve gotten through it. It might not have been easy, but you made it until today. And that was the old you, who wasn’t armed with as much wisdom and experience as you are currently.

You play it safe, no matter what it costs you.

People who accuse you of overreacting when you share your feelings. 

You never question whether your person is going to leave, whether they’re going to cheat, whether they care less than you care. You know your person is in love with you because they show it in a million little ways every single day.

Stories expands the AHS universe while including great references to its ‘Story’ mothership. 

You’re feeling disrespected, unappreciated, and unheard. 

The worst part is, you aren’t going to grow from everything that happened between us.

I hope you’re doing okay, but that doesn’t mean walking away was an overreaction. It doesn’t mean I regret anything that happened between us. It doesn’t mean you were right all along or that you deserve an apology. It doesn’t mean that you were innocent, after all. 

Maybe they’re the one who got away for a reason. Maybe you weren’t meant for forever. Maybe the short time that you spend together was enough.

Stop playing nice in order to keep the peace. Especially when it’s disturbing your peace.

Love should make you feel full. Not empty. Not misunderstood or unappreciated.

If your partner loved you, they would value your judgment. They would trust you to make the right decision without feeling the need to interfere.

Everyone goes through moments of insecurity and self-doubt, but when you have a strong support system, it will be easier to pick yourself up again.

You shouldn’t feel guilty for resting. You cannot be productive every moment of every day. You need to give yourself breaks in order to keep yourself healthy. You need to be kind to your body and mind.

Despite what your anxiety tells you, you aren’t unlovable. You aren’t a burden. And you should never settle for someone who makes you feel like you are.
