People who are incredibly toxic will never realize their toxicity or how much of it they shove down your throat. They will think their toxicity is normal. That it is okay. That it is fine.
And that is scary.
this. your every criticism of a toxic is just invalid.

Because there was a moment when I was happy for quite some time that I long for sadness. Now I’m in a melancholic and often hollow state that I force myself to be happy. I often just try to let the feelings be. But then I start worrying that soon the happiness or sadness will swallow me whole.

When I realized I was not my body, I became free.

This is another one that’s just stacking up on information we’ve suspected for a while. When a child is praised for being smart or talented, it makes the stakes that much higher because they need to stay smart or talented in order to maintain their identity. Here’s the crux of this study:
“Adults may feel that praising...

No, I do not need a consolation of “there is someone out there who could love and treat you much better” because if I allowed myself and if you too decided to give us a try, we could be better. No, no.lasting regrets of what happened. And I would try to stop myself to longingly wonder, what could have been - because there are a whole wide world of possibilities! Some amazing, some...

Graham Hill trades in a life of luxury for a 420 square-foot studio apartment with almost nothing in it — and is happier as a result:
Somehow this stuff ended up running my life, or a lot of it; the things I consumed ended up consuming me.
Or, as Tyler Durden once put it:
The things you own, end up owning you.

Let me live with my delusion that if circumstances were different, you would want to be with me too; if you get bi-curious, this feeling would be mutual.

I do find it funny that lesbians are perceived as man-hating but gay men are not perceived as woman-hating, and in fact are often illogically shielded from accusations of misogyny simply by being gay

Sinister in too many ways to count, but yeah the simplest thing I’ve noticed is that it’s hard to think straight, much less challenge society, when your body has no energy.

For someone who prefer doing things her way, I do melt when someone I like take charge for me. Not really a dictator-like kind of push. It’s more of a confident “you’ll do this because you’ll like it” and you trust enough that you would. And when you do achieve it, it is every way nice because that person celebrates with you too.
Ugh. It is such a turn on for me to...
I have never really tried going the extra mile. Never really gone beyond the comforts of just enough. Never let lose to the passionate almost crazy pursuit of better. I am content, for the the longest time, with mediocrity. Maybe, I have always sought after cheers from others that yes, I can do it — but never heard it, so I didn’t. But do you know what’s amazing? I stumbled upon...
Maybe, its not really just about how far you’ve gone. Or you’ve taken the wrong road and have to turn back. Or even taken the right one and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Maybe it is more on having the courage to keep walking even with that nagging uncertainty.
