swolerbear: arandomthot: An interesting perspective to consider [Tweet by @AhBiola that reads: ‘This therapist just said “it’s not that you’re attracting toxic people toxic people aren’t picky, they go to everyone, you letting them stay is the issue that needs to be worked on” and this makes so much sense than that “you’re broken that’s why you’re attracting broken people”’] This is an incredibly important albeit very difficult lesson that everyone needs to learn. Many of us have been conditioned in one way or another to accept shitty treatment, whether by our parents, our peers, or our most unfortunate romantic partners, and you don’t need to put up with it. This is what I’ve learned in my journey after leaving my abuser. Don’t be afraid to assert boundaries. I know that’s easier said than done, but your needs and wants matter just as much as anyone else’s. -- source link
