I've always thought that a good relationship is built on trust, on compromise, on finding ways to keep each other happy even if it means that you need to adjust. That both give equally and that no fight is worth losing the other person on.

but I guess you didn't get the memo.

And to think I always seemed to forgive you for everything. no matter what you did, if you apologised, I accepted it and moved on. because that's what you do when you're in love. maybe to you these were only words.

I cannot believe the things you said to me the day you decided to walk away. You brought back every fight, every nuance, everything that was wrong with me just so that you could hurt me more. Maybe because you wanted to make sure I knew that it was all my fault, and that's why you were leaving.

and I sat there almost blank, unable to find words to tell you, or remind you of how i had forgiven you for things much worse. how in all those times I felt like leaving but I thought you were sincere and I let it go. and yes, I've had my faults too, but I meant what i apologised for, I changed what I apologised for, but I should have changed the part of me that kept giving you second, third and fourth chances.

I guess it is my fault, my biggest fault, that all this time that you were finding faults in me, I was overlooking yours.

But everyone has a different story and you don't get to decide what their story should be. Do not assume that just because someone is open about themselves they are willing to talk about it with you. If you want to have a conversation, ask permission and be sensitive to everyones emotions.

Everyone is different and if you are generalizing then you are stereotyping and that is not something an ally should be doing.

It's not about treating someone differently, everyone would like to be treated just the same, but you need to learn to read a room, you need to be able to put yourself in someone else's shoes. Just because you're comfortable doesn't mean someone else is. Isn't it? Do you feel the same? Do let me know.

Thank you for listening me. Keep supporting. Have a great day!
