Ethel & Noble

DO YOU KNOW THIS PERSON?
-He is selfish by nature. Everything revolves around him, and he’s very difficult to deal with when it doesn’t.
-He treats strangers better than he treats his own family.

THE LESSONS
1. They will not do anything for you without wanting times two of something else from you

2. You are not certain of what you are to them. Yesterday, they love you. Today, you are just a friend. Tomorrow, you are a stranger to them.

3. They don’t respect boundaries.

4. No matter how many times you tell them, your needs and wants they will never do it. Their needs and wants will always come before yours. There’s no compromise.

5. They will jeer at you. Anything from their mouths is to bring you down. From body shaming to making you feel bad for having parents that care about you.

6. It’s not your fault if they disrespect you. That’s just who they are.

7. When you tell them that “if you insult me again, I’ll leave” keep your word. Because if you don’t, then they will do the worst things since they know that you will always stay.

8. Put yourself first. If you feel that your mental health is deteriorating, then leave the relationship. But if leaving is a luxury, then look for a way to be happy through the pain. As for me, I left the relationships I could leave. And for the relationship I couldn’t leave, I focused on my hobby – dancing, to get through the pain.

9. Buy yourself a gift or take yourself out for having the bravery to leave the relationship. It’s not easy to leave a relationship, especially a toxic one.

10. Healing is possible and it will come. Have patience with yourself.
