Many relationships would be a lot healthier if we romanticized honest, open and direct communication instead of idealizing the idea of a partner who’s intuitively in tune with your every need. You don’t need someone who can read your mind, you just need someone who’s willing to listen when you speak.

the intense sapphic urge to have a wife. to call someone my wife casually. to live with a wife. to be a wife to them too. for a wife to call me their wife. yes.

“I don’t pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me. Love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person. Love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of. Love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.”— The O.C.
If someone makes you feel like you have to compete with other people as “candidates” to prove yourself worthy to be in a serious relationship with them, then walk away. You shouldn’t have to constantly prove yourself worthy to be loved, and love is not a competition on being the best person available to someone else. Don’t let someone only see your value based on what you can do for them, don’t let them treat you like a commodity. Because as soon as they see someone they think is a better “commodity” or a better “service” to them, they will leave you for them. You are a human, you are not a service, you are not an object, you aren’t meant to be used. You are meant to be loved. The idea that you have to conquer someone’s love through fighting with others and proving that you “are different and better than others” comes from romantic books that end beautifully - but in real life, those relationships are often toxic.
“I’m here. I love you. I don’t care if you need to stay up crying all night long, I will stay with you. There’s nothing you can ever do to lose my love.”— Elizabeth Gilbert
