Remembering this helps a lot:
Choosing where to be is also a way of taking care of yourself.
Important emotional recommendations:
It’s not about cutting people off out of anger.
It’s about choosing your spaces more wisely.
You don’t need to confront everyone.
Many times it’s enough to:
stop being available all the time
not accept every invitation
prioritize your well-being
Healthy relationships don’t require you to constantly strive to be accepted
Reaching a certain stage of life doesn’t mean withdrawing from the world, but rather learning to be alone where it truly matters. Being in a place where you’re welcomed with openness, interest, and respect shouldn’t be unusual… it should be the norm.
