Last Valentine’s Day I sat across from the man I married, who told me, “Everyone is a sinner. Marriage is just about picking the particular sinner you want to struggle with for the rest of your life.” I moved out a week later and ended our toxic marriage. No regrets.
It’s weird that we spend so much time figuring out who to come home to, but here’s the thing:
If you ever have to ask if they still love you
if they make you sorry for your softness & tell you you’re too much,
if they need to be faced with your absence to value your presence
If you ever have to ask if they still love you
if they make you sorry for your softness & tell you you’re too much,
if they need to be faced with your absence to value your presence
if they treat you like loving you is
anything less than a privilege,
if you have to chase them,
beg them, give them an ultimatum,
if you find yourself googling
“What is emotional abuse?”
Get. The. Hell. Out.

Quit loving boys that like that they are mean, who love their own sandpaper edges.
Quit loving boys that pretend they
don’t miss you or pretend they don’t
care.

Quit loving boys who
think they are God's gift to you - some boyish Messiah sent to
save your soul with their touch and
resuscitate the skeletons hanging in the closet of your heart.
Quit loving boys like you’re going to war, because you never come back the same.

Quit loving boys like you’re going to war, because you never come back the same.
Most of all, quit loving boys just because they aren’t 100% monster.
You deserve better than that.
Don’t let anyone half love you -
be with someone who gives their love openly and generously because
receiving love should not have to be a constant struggle.

You deserve the same love you keep trying to give to everyone else.
I know what you’re thinking but
this is not cruel – when someone isn’t treating you right, it is an act of love to hold them to a higher standard by walking away.

Overall, you should know that there are so many things in life to be tortured about so don’t let men who don’t love you right be one of them.
You deserve the kind of love that does not force you to prove your worth and sit in anxiety.
Happy Valentine’s Day, loves
