my mom told me "there is no point in arguing with someone who does not have an open mind. people with a closed minded mentality will never look at all the variables being presented, just the ones that benefit them" and i've never heard anything more true in my life
men underestimate a silent female. once your girl no longer trips over what you're doing and no longer tries to talk things out, she's done. the silence of a female means she has exhausted herself emotionally trying to get you to listen and you didn't. now she no longer cares.
Love just isn't enough for me anymore these days. As I grow in life I need you to respect me, support me, reassure me, value me, be gentle with me. I need to feel safe with you so I can flourish being the softest version of myself.
