What I wish someone would have told me.

article image placeholderUploaded by @Chey
And it's the ten things that I wish someone would have told me. One. Pay attention to his actions, because his words can whisper sweet nothings. Two. Listen to him, he will tell you who he is. Be. Leave him. Three. Listen to his words. He will tell you what he thinks of himself. Do not try to paint him a better picture. Four. Learn to love yourself so you know when you are not getting what you need. Five

I wish somebody had said that. But yeah, I think a lot of people need to hear it. That's why I re swelled it, because it's so important. And thank you so much for sharing this, because I think it took a lot to sit down and think about, about all this and saying that you wish someone had told you this. Me, too. I wish somebody had told me this, too. This is good

And that is it right there. We shouldn't be in the pursuit of anything, right? We have everything that we need and want within us. We have self love, self acceptance, emotional intelligence, the ability to sit ourself down and think after we've had our heart broken and reevaluate and change what we need to and keep it moving. At least that's what I do

And I had to put it all together and come up with my own conclusions. And in doing that, that's when I realized a lot of them were never taught to love themselves. And they might have given love. Like, I know what it is to receive love. I know a girl. I know how to give love like it's nobody's business. Let me tell you something. But what I realized was, everyone doesn't deserve your love

And it went from, oh, she's a bitch to, what's up, sis? And I can respect that. I can respect that. And I could appreciate that because we all are out here just guarding and trying to protect ourselves and deal with life. And when you've had your heart broken, it's an experience you don't ever want to have to experience again, especially when it's over and over again

There was one time I was listening to this sermon and she was like, get you some boundaries and watch your edges come back. And girl, my edges? Is they growing back in? It was a little spot that was trying to take me out and I was like, no, but yes. The stress levels of brokenness, male or female or broken men like that

Hi. Thank you for sharing these lessons learned as a woman. These are things, I believe, that mothers, aunts, grandmothers, the sisterhood as a collective should impart on young girls from such a young age

And because of that, I talked openly about it with my own children. Oh, my gosh. I remember the first time I told the guys that I had a conversation with my son and Chey were like, are you serious? And I'm like, yeah, because these conversations aren't had, and they need to be had
