Giving someone the benefit of doubt, especially those close to us is natural.
If you repeatedly endure lies and confusing them with love, this situation can turn toxic at every level. Words become meaningless.
Clarity can be gained by a sounding board that is neutral and kind.
Who can help you find clarity?
Does this person follow through on promises or flake out with an excuse? Is there a balance (not in terms of a spreadsheet)?
When giving becomes exhausting, and you have no support when you need it most; it’s giving you a clear message that your love is not respected.
Set an example of how you expect to be treated by setting boundaries and a good example. You will know when to move on…
Love yourself first. Value and respect yourself first. You deserve it. You are worthy.
Love & light
