Their intentions might not be pure the second time and the time after that.

Be comfortable in your own skin; do things that will help you be as confident as you can in yourself. What other people think or say about you should not be a bother, especially when it is coming from a place of assumptions, negativity and judgements.

Don't pay attention to their invalidation and bitterness, it does not and should not count.

Sometimes, You know what to do, the right decision to take, and exactly how to handle it all when dealing with a sour situation that may be hard to salvage, but because a part of you is hoping for a different turnout, you suddenly feel the need to seek opinions and counsel, not necessarily because you need them but because you are just looking for that one validation that will help you hold on to your hope while you continue to endure and die in silence.

That's not the best way to live and stay sane, You should do what is healthy for you and your sanity.

Be real and maintain your personality and character traits.
When you have experiences, learn from them but do not permit them to have a negative influence on you, it may be a struggle but try hard.

Be firm; resist the urge to alter your identity. Your aura will attract like-minds to you and authenticity will always win over disguise, maybe not immediately but eventually.

The last stage of an interpersonal relationship is the "deterioration phase" where someone either loses their partner to the cold hands of death or has gotten bored of the partner and all plans to try to renew the spark of the relationship keeps going down the hill.

You look at your partner and no longer feel anything for them, you just want any way possible to escape from them.
In a marriage, it can result in separation or divorce while in a romantic relationship, it can lead to a breakup.

When this happens and you have put in all the effort but there is no positive outcome, please leave. Do not keep anyone stuck with you, stay with anyone out of pity or try to manage anyone while getting what the relationship is lacking from somewhere else.

Leave that partner and be free, it is better to LEAVE or be LEFT than to CHEAT or get CHEATED ON.

Sometimes, people who have hurt you badly come back begging not because they have realized that they screwed up and are truly sorry but because they did not see you moving on so quickly and doing better without them, so they desire to resurface and have more hold on your life.

You can forgive them for you, your sanity and healing but be very cautious with letting them back into your space. Their intentions might not be pure the second time and the time after that, so protect yourself from distress.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 😊❤

Grief is always the hardest to talk about as it comes with the worst emotions and state of mind ever but the healing starts from being as vocal as one can be about every single way felt.

When it comes to grieving all you have to do is Listen, validate, and empathize. A grieving person does not need to be countered nor should his/her feelings be trivialized.
Follow at his or her own pace.

When you meet someone who you view as a potential partner, I want you to know that he/she might likely not have or be everything you are looking out for but when you get a 6 out of 10 in that person, it's valid enough.

You just have to make sure that the main qualities you are looking out for and can't compromise fall in the 6, as for the others you can teach or even overlook them.
Nobody is perfect, everyone has flaws, select the one that you can manage.

When people are genuine with you, make an intentional effort to be genuine with them as well.
The slightest glimpse of insincerity is enough to decline or break off the trust they placed in you.
Be Reliable; Have Integrity.
