You don't fix them

Hey babe 🖤

Love isn’t soft. It’s messy, chaotic, and often brutal. People will hurt you, intentionally or not and the truth is, it doesn’t mean you’re weak, unlovable, or “too much.” The people who betray, ghost, cheat, or gaslight? That’s on them, not you.

Here’s the truth most people won’t say:

• Cheating isn’t always about you. It’s about them, their fears, their flaws, their immaturity. You didn’t break it. You didn’t cause it. You didn’t deserve it.

• Emotional betrayal is real. Sometimes it’s subtle: lying, hiding, giving love elsewhere. Sometimes it’s obvious. Either way, it’s manipulation. Recognize it, don’t excuse it.

• Gaslighting is cruel. If they try to make you doubt yourself, your instincts, or your worth, you’re allowed to leave. You’re allowed to see clearly. You’re allowed to stop apologizing for noticing the truth.

🔥 The Brutal Truth About Love

1. You will love people who leave you. That’s normal. That’s life. It hurts. And that hurt? It makes you untouchable next time.

2. Some people are just lessons. Not everyone who enters your life is meant to stay. Not everyone who kisses you, whispers “I love you,” or gives you promises - wants to grow with you. Some are here to teach you your own strength.

3. You are never the problem. Stop blaming yourself. Stop replaying every moment, thinking, “Maybe if I… maybe I…” Babe, you did your part. They didn’t. Period.

4. Heartbreak is fuel. Let it rip through you. Let it make you raw, real, and fearless. Don’t shrink. Don’t numb. Don’t soften yourself to make anyone else comfortable.

✨ Permission List

• Permission to leave people who don’t value you.

• Permission to call out manipulation, lies, or gaslighting.

• Permission to love yourself harder than anyone else ever did.

• Permission to grieve fully, scream, cry, and rage but then rise.

• Permission to be unapologetically selective. Your heart isn’t free real estate.

💌 Reflection Prompt

Ask yourself: Who in my past drained me instead of building me? Who didn’t see my worth?
Write it down. Feel it. Then burn it mentally. Let it go. You’re not carrying anyone else’s betrayal anymore.

🎧 Music Rec

• Selena Gomez – “The Heart Wants What It Wants” 
  → Dark, emotional, intense, and perfectly captures betrayal, heartbreak, and emotional ownership.

💥 Real Talk

You are not broken. You are not too sensitive. You are not the cause of their weakness.
You are alive. You are aware. You are a main character in a world of chaos. And this? This betrayal, this heartbreak? It’s shaping you into someone untouchable, unshakable, and unstoppable.

Stop apologizing for seeing the truth. Stop shrinking for anyone who can’t hold space for your fire. Stop trying to fix people who aren’t ready to be fixed.

✨ Babe, Hear This

You are worthy.
You are enough.
You are fierce.
You are rising.
You are the prize.

And never forget: the storm didn’t break you, babe you are the storm.
