@brightblackhooney: The same person that has carried you into every mess, has also carried you out. We need to leave more space for self reflection and self forgiveness in these conversations. #relationships #dating #highvaluewoman #highvalueman #toxicrelationship #discernment #menandwomen #selflove #datingadvice #youngwomen #datingpool #narcissist #manipulation #datingyourself #decentermen #adviceforgirls #redflags #greenflags
I couldn’t put my finger on why that statement bothered me so much and you described it SO perfectly.

“As a culture we aren’t generous enough with how wisdom comes to be” this really hit home!!

I saw a comment that said it’s more like you can tell how their parents loved them. That hit deep. Definitely many factors involved though.

kendall's biggest hater :
it's cyclical imo. the idea that your partner reflects everything about you feels like just another shaming tactic so wisdom never truly spreads.

Did I fall for a bad person or did they slowly remove the personality, thoughtfulness & kindness they showed me in the beginning

So much of dating advice for men teaches them how to misrepresent themselves and the only way to protect yourself from that is by allowing time for trust to develop before becoming committed

It almost feels like they blame the woman for the man actions 😔 no accountability for men at all

I haven't had much experience in dating but whenever I see these types of videos it feels like it targets people with little to no sense of self

So true. I keep telling my friends that it’s not a moral failing- it’s a societal issue.

Spot on! By the time the performance is over i’m stuck in a inconsistent reward cycle addiction 😭

and so often the older women around you shame you when you discuss leaving that 'good man'

I would say treating people who care about you poorly shows lower self esteem. But people see this as “game” when it’s self sabotage.

Men are taught they are not masculine unless they have total security in their relationship with control. Coercion is how men guarantee secure attachments for themselves alone at her expense.

Oftentimes - it’s only when you have children with him, that you realise the mess you’re in. I thought I had an equal partner until then.

thank you. this was framed as though I can pick a man like I'm shopping at a store "hmm he has everything I want! that's the one!" but they have autonomy too. it takes 2, I can't just "pick" like that

ya my boyfriend didn't share with me how problematic his viewpoints were before we lived together he just let me talk about mine and stayed quiet 😭

Totally agree. As a personal journey we are all learning & mastering self love as well as learning to relate to our loved ones. Sometimes we are confident in our choices & other times we are growing💕

You just said everything there been sitting in my heart the last couple of months. I’ve really tried to be conscious of who I pick as a partner to break familial relationship trauma patterns…

yes, thank you for talking about how hard it is to rebuild after being deceived, feeling judged and entirely responsable for 'not clocking it' makes it harder definetly

They make it seem like every woman chose the guy who clearly doesn’t work and doesn’t want to. There are women who only date higher earning men who experience these things too.

The male performance is KEY. My ex flipped like a switch when I got pregnant. It was terrifying.
