I once chose the person who felt like home.
Turns out home was just familiar pain.
I'd lived there so long I called it comfort.

I once said "take your time" when what I meant was "please hurry, I'm drowning."
People-pleasing is just fear with good manners.

I once stayed because the good days were so good.
Two good days a month.
I built a whole case on two days.

I thought being understanding meant accepting everything.
"They're going through a lot."
So was I.
Nobody was understanding me.

I thought closure was a conversation.
So I chased it. Drafted the perfect final message.
Never sent it.
One day I realized: the closure was me, deciding I was done.

I once loved someone through their worst.
Held their hand through the storm.
Then watched them become the storm.
Loyalty to someone who's hurting you isn't loyalty.
It's self-abandonment with better branding.

Watch how someone apologizes. "I'm sorry you feel that way" is a press release. "I'm sorry I did that" is a person. #SimplyJohnOne #HumanBehavior #RelationshipAwareness #EmotionalAwareness #toxicpatterns
