The hardest thing about this stage is how much are you willing to fight the fight? When will you see things clearly and accept the end?

I know these are questions that are boggling you and you're clinging on to hope for a better outcome. Let me hold your hand and say, "I'm sorry."

Respect doesn't mean absolute obedience because that only means compromising agency and in this case, your happiness. I wish I never gave up on my dreams, perhaps I'm probably way happier now. If you are someone who is grappling between blind obedience and autonomy, maybe this conversation is for you 🫂

Today, we're unpacking where jealousy really comes from, what it might be trying to tell us, and how to respond to it without letting it take over our relationships or our self-worth. 🌻

A relationship between two people should not be a "group effort." I learned it the hard way and I still lost the person in the end to the same person I thought was helping me out... CRAZY.

I understand that you feel the itch to reach out to your peers when the relationship gets heavy - you want them to validate you and see why your partner is wrong. But here's the thing, it's not healthy. You're in the height of your emotions and it's always best to keep it contained within the spaces it's meant to be safe in and that is between you and your partner.

Whether you see yourself in one attachment style or you're trying to understand someone you love, I hope this conversation helps you make sense of the patterns you've been stuck in and remind you that awareness is the first step toward healthier relationships. You're okay, you just need to talk it out 🫂

Courtship used to be so ingrained in Filipino culture but I'm not quite sure anymore if meron pa ba talagang nanliligaw these days. Though the answer to that remains blurry the idea of being yearned and wanted remains strong for many of us who loves the idea of love. It may be quite brazen for some but knowing how we want to be yearned, the best we can do is turn it into a non-negotiable and tell them, "gusto ko magpaligaw."

This was scary to post because my lore behind this topic is DEEP!!! If you're listening to this, allow me to apologize on behalf of the people who never understood how painful it was for you to shrink just to be liked. I hope your mind clears up after the episode and you can have a kind conversation with your partner 🫂

It's feels good to be back but the struggle to be back was...something else. In this episode, I explore the conversations I've been having between my healed self and my newly-pained self. I put value in my ability to feel yet its also the source of my inability to move on. So the question stands. How do you feel again after being numb?

I'm all for looking at silver linings but too much of it just suffocates what you really want to say. Nothing hurts more than rejecting the hurt you're already feeling because believe me, it will haunt you more than you think if you deny it all the time :<<
