choose someone who thinks about you before they do something, not after. someone who pauses and asks, "will this hurt you?" or "will this make you feel bad?" someone who values your feelings enough to consider them first, not someone who only realizes your worth after the damage has already been done. you deserve someone who is mindful, even in the smallest things. because the right person won't keep hurting you and apologizing later. they will respect you enough to think ahead, choose better, and protect your feelings before it reaches that point.
