Not all toxic people are cruel and uncaring. Some of them love us dearly. Many of them even have good intentions.. but are toxic to us simply because their needs and way of existing in the world forces us to compromise ourselves and our happiness. They aren’t inheritely bad people, but they just aren’t the right people for us. And as hard as that is, we have to let them go. Life is hard enough without being around people who drain our energy, and as much as you invest and care, you can’t destroy yourself for the sake of someone else. You have to make your wellbeing a priority! Whether that means breaking up with someone you love, letting go of a friend, loving a family member from a distance, or removing yourself from a painful situation… You have every right to leave and create a safer space for yourself. ❤
