Love, life & layers

Boundaries aren’t walls; they’re the doorway to sustainable love
Dear Strong One,
I hear you. Deeply. You’ve been the anchor, the safe place, the fixer, the one who holds things together when everything feels like it’s falling apart. You’ve never dropped the ball because it feels more like a bomb to you. And I know how bloody exhausting all of this is. You’re not wrong to want something different. You’re not selfish for craving a love that flows both ways. But here’s the thing no one tells you: when you spend your life being the strong one, people start to believe you don’t need anything.

In the shadow of potential
Dear Unsure,
It feels like you’re at the tender crossroads of love and longing. It takes so much courage to admit when you’re unsure, to ask the hard questions and sit in the thick of the discomfort instead of rushing for the answers. What you’re feeling is deeply valid: the pull of love and friendship, and the ache for deeper connection on one hand, and the uncertainty and fear of commitment on the other. Let’s sit together for a moment and unpack this messy, beautiful thing you’ve trusted me with.
