Don’t be afraid of losing him. Be afraid of staying where you’re tolerated… not valued. Where you have to shrink to keep the peace. Where you think before you speak. Where love feels like something you have to earn. You’re not scared of losing him. You’re scared of finally choosing yourself. That’s the real fear. If this hit… you already know. #selfworth #toxicrelationship #emotionallyunavailable #HealingJourney #detachment

Don't be afraid to lose him. Be afraid of saying where you're not valued. I'm sick of this. Sick of changing your tone, just not to set him off. Sick of thinking how to say something before you even open your mouth. Sick of shrinking yourself so he stays comfortable. Sick of crying and still having to explain why you're crying. Sick of feeling like everything is your fault just because he says it is. And you know what's the worst part? He's fine watching you adjust, fine watching you overthink, fine watching you carry the emotional weight of the relationship. Because as long as you stay, nothing has to change, and that's why you're stuck. Not because you don't see it, because you're still scared to lose him. Meanwhile, he's comfortable losing pieces of you every day. Your voice, your confidence, your peace. So now, don't be afraid to lose him. Be afraid of how much you're willing to lose just to keep someone who isn't even trying to keep you. You're not too much. You're just tired of shrinking for someone who expects it. Read that again. Some of you aren't confused. You're exhausted. If this hit say tired, say here, I'm Mama Tone's. Follow for more, Batty. I love you. You can do this.
