Yes, starting over is hard. It's uncomfortable, uncertain, and sometimes lonely.

But you know what's harder?

Waking up years from now, still shrinking yourself to fit into a relationship that drains you.

Still explaining away his behavior.

Still hoping that maybe this time he'll show up the way you deserve.

Still carrying the weight of protecting his image while your own spirit is breaking behind closed doors.

You're not here to prove your worth to someone who can't see it.

Don't waste your precious life waiting for someone to become who they promised to be.

Walk away. Heal. Rebuild.

You're not starting over. 

You're setting yourself free. 🖤🕊️🤍
