We all want to be wanted but we make the mistake of seeking it through others. Bounded by the inner wound of wanting it through the parent that didn’t. By parenting yourself, you will not seek being wanted but seek a partnership that will support you caring for yourself.

I think we are all hopeful romantics but the world rips our insecurities apart to play it cool but in reality we all just want to be wanted.

We all want to be wanted by others. Bounded by the inner wound of the parent that didn’t. That is why we struggle in love. Seeking a parent, rather than a partner. Parent yourself. To not seek being wanted but to seek the right partner that will support you as you love yourself.

I have been making a list all of 2024 of the love I want, here are the top 3 qualities: 1. Speak life into each other. 2. Say things even when it sucks. 3. Are self ware and accountable of what their red flags. 📝📝📝

There’s something beautiful about creating a culture in a relationship. The cleaning schedules. The unspoken looks across the room. The safe words when settling confrontations and intimate exploration only you two know. That’s what makes it worth fighting for, because it’s yours.

The goal during heartbreak is not to just get over someone but to become a higher sense of self through the actions you choose to take while navigating difficult emotions.

I rather crash out processing a rejection that came from my most authentic than crashing out over dimming my light and getting rejected anyway.

There is something so beautiful about being secure to the point where you want your partner to feel safe over the anxiety that they are taking advantage of you.

Getting over your fear of rejection is like lifting a heavy weight. You can visualize, and think about lifting it but at the end of the day the action itself is the only way to build the muscle.

The biggest challenge of being human is not trusting how capable we actually are. We let fear of rejection, wounds of abandonment and people pleasing get in the way of finding the right connection. Only until we radically allow ourselves, is when we find what serves us.

We don’t talk about good trouble. The healthy love we worked so hard on ourselves to attract to finally find us and know that it’s the moment to step up, practice calming oneself and be your most vulnerable. It’s that deep and transformational love that can be scary.

Knowing that there is someone out there who will hold you in your most depressive state and say “I love you just the same” only happens if we have the courage to present that to them. Find love but a love that is built on authenticity.

We have to give more credit to the friends who are willing to share that they’re struggling and to check in on the friends who never seem to struggle at all.

I’d like to think I met you when I had nothing else but in reality I was just waiting for you while working through so much. in all honesty I’m going through a lot. I’m learning. Being better. And you’re a product of the result.
