IGNORING HER only teaches her how to live without you. Men think she’s suffering, but she’s actually adjusting.

Emotional intelligence is knowing: -not every thought needs to be said. -not every feeling needs to be acted on. -not every trigger is truth.

I just heard someone say “maybe you don’t need more time to heal, maybe you need more experiences that show your nervous system a different realty” And, yeah.

I’m becoming more and more convinced that if we want to cultivate and maintain a sound mind, we have to limit how much energy we give to social media.

"it's their first time living too" and it's also mine, and i still would never do that to anyone

Women are not “naturally submissive.” Similarly, men are not “natural leaders.” Both are patriarchal lies.

Not only do I love a man that I can call for everything, I love when a man wants to be called for everything. Never annoyed, always ready to solve a problem.

Unfortunately no matter how hyper independent and girl you are, at the end of the day, you will still prefer shutting your brain off with someone who leads the way and gives you a princess treatment in the most genuine way...!

A man will traumatize you and then get mad that you’re still hurting, like you’re supposed to go back to being the woman he destroyed.

Men swear they hate drama, but will lie, cheat, and gaslight like it’s a sport. YOU are the drama.

i like consistency. i like reassurance. i like effort. i like soft love. i like being chosen loudly.

You will marry a lover boy with provider mindset who loves to spoil you , & is unashamedly & unapologetically in love with you.

Flirting can destroy your home. If you’re in a relationship, act like it. Respect your significant other, even when they’re not around. Loyalty is tested when no one is watching. Choose your partner, every day, in every way.

Being in a relationship means giving your partner space to be human. To have needs. To get it wrong sometimes. And to grow at their own pace.

I love this quote: "Love is not something you beg for. It’s something you recognize, something that sees you too."

"you're too picky" his morals will raise my children. his hands will protect my home. his heart will nurture mine when I'm hurting. you're not picky enough

Note to guys: Please make bringing flowers to a first date a thing again. I promise you this will make you stand out & show a girl you really care

I seriously cannot stress how important it is to find a partner who believes in you so wholeheartedly that on days you feel like you can't… they remind you that you can.

If you're a woman and you're still single in this era, trust me, you're the woman that a good man is praying for. Don't lose hope.

I don’t care how INDEPENDENT or self sufficient she seems, treat her well. Buy her things. Take her out. Court her. PURSUE her. She’s only doing everything alone because she HAS to, not because she wants to.
