We end up in toxic relationships because we don’t stand up for ourselves early on when red flags occur. We let them slide, because we fear losing a companion. How long do you let disrespect and neglect go? At some point you have to develop healthy barriers for how you’re going to be treated; you’re responsible for your experience, nobody else is.

In a relationship, you need somebody who’s gonna call you out, not someone who’s gonna let everything slide. You need someone who doesn’t want to live without you. But can. Not somebody that is dependent, but somebody who is stronger with you. A relationship is two people, not one.
