quickest way to lose me is to keep doing something i already told you i don't like. that's not a mistake anymore, that's a choice. if i opened up about what hurts me, what makes me uncomfortable, or what crosses the line for me, and you still do it, then you're showing me how little my feelings matter to you. i don't ask for much, just basic respect and consideration. i can be patient, understanding, and forgiving, but once i feel unheard too many times, i stop explaining. and when i stop explaining, i slowly start letting go. that's how you lose me.
