You gave him everything. Your time, your energy, your heart. You made excuses for his behavior. You lowered your standards. You convinced yourself that something was better than nothing.
And now you're sitting here wondering why you feel so empty.
Here's what happened: you abandoned yourself. You chose his comfort over your truth. You silenced your intuition because it was easier than facing the reality of who he really is.
But this pain? It's not punishment. It's a wake-up call.
Your intuition wasn't wrong - you just ignored it. Your standards weren't too high - you just compromised them. Your needs weren't too much - you just made them too small.
This is your moment to come home to yourself. To rebuild what you lost. To remember that you are enough, exactly as you are.
The right person won't make you shrink. They'll make you expand into everything you already are.
