Friendship shouldn’t feel like emotional labour, walking on eggshells, or proving love through exhaustion.

If you’ve ever been the one who over-explains, over-cares, or overstays, only to end up tired, resentful, and misunderstood, you’re not failing.

You’re burnt out from unconsciously feeding the patterns that confuse love with self-abandonment.

Healing starts with accountability and the willingness to sit in its discomfort without turning away.

To honestly ask:
❤️‍🩹 Where have I mistaken anxiety for connection?
❤️‍🩹 Where have I given from fear rather than fullness?

If any of these dynamics live in your life, start here:

✅ I’m probably aware of how these patterns show up in connections that drain me,
❌ but less aware of how they appear in the ones where I’ve outsourced my power.
🙂‍↕️ I play an equal part in perpetuating what I most want to heal.

Love deepens when it’s held, not drained. When presence replaces performance, and friendship becomes the place where truth can rest.

Yes and i pray and give and serve and ask and give anf give and give , and i just wanna lady to hold, to model for me etc, and i keep getting “teased” so badly. Wherr is the grace? Where is the goddess ti meet halfway? I see the bad patterns that i wanna fix.. but seems they bizarrely hold me to bad standards of the past. Maybe doesnt apply to you cuz you live far away.. but i can empathize 100% with this 0
