Honesty

Lovers

Maybe everything did seem fine. But I’ve realized that ‘fine’ has come at the cost of me staying quiet about my needs just to keep the peace. And that’s not sustainable for me anymore. I’ve worked too hard to honor my healing, my peace, and my worth to keep walking on eggshells in this connection.

If you truly care, I’d hope you’d want me to be honest with you, even when it’s uncomfortable. A real partnership means both people can express their needs without fear of burdening the other. I’m no longer willing to accept a dynamic where I feel unseen or like I’m constantly waiting for more. And I don’t want you to stay out of obligation either. I want both of us to be free to choose this, fully.

If you feel you’re not able or willing to meet me in that space, I’ll respect that. I’ll always care about you, but I won’t ignore what I know I need to feel safe, valued, and loved. I want something mutual and consistent, and if that’s not what’s here, then I have to let go even if its with love so the right energy can finally flow into my life.

I hope you understand, ive outgrown this connection and the old habits. Im not the same person I was and I choose me. I mean....who else is going to if not myself, right? I hope this reaches you but please dont mistake my kindness for naivity.
