Makes me think of a self imposed misery through 'unrequited' love (or a desired type? of love not given). Sometimes our attraction compasses are effed up and we vie for the attention/validation of some one despite the understanding (or not) the unhealthy balance in said relationship. And we fail to set the boundaries or proclaim our wants/ needs because that will accelerate the inevitable transformation/dissolution of the relationship. This is rooted in cowardice and it makes me think of the phrase 'scarcity mindset'.

Nope, I believe in unconditional love.

" ...Whatever we do, we want a return. We're all traders in life, in virtue, in religion and alas! We are also traders in love. ...we get misery in return for our love; not from the fact that we love, but from the fact that we want love in return. There is no misery where there is no want."

There's nothing wrong in expecting same efforts from others like we give.we can find few in million who only think of giving n not taking.Minds Will put in such Condition to take back what's given.I thinking being judgemental can put u in state where ppl might look desperate.

Wanting is exciting and can't be beat once accomplished by meticulous effort. I tend to distinguish want from need as want being something that "can" be accomplished and need as inevitable effort. Misery is hence the destination of insufficient effort.

I hope you find the courage to be true to yourself. To decide without thinking about what other people might say. To fight for what you really want in your heart. To be free from other people's judgments. It will be painfully beautiful. 🌈✨

I appreciate you by telling me what to do‚ your words really motivate me but I hope you know how to tell it to yourself as well, for I know you’re needing help too.
