you ever meet somebody who is like 85% right for you?? (which is a lot! that’s rare to find & connect with somebody in that way! their values and principles align with yours so nicely, and you feel so safe with them…) but there’s this 15% that reallyyyy fucks you both up. like. you just can’t get past this ONE dealbreaker. ONE. just one thing that is fundamental to you or to them and you clash there. somebody (or both people, in most cases) doesn’t feel seen or loved fully because of that oneeeee thing. but you love them so much. you don’t wanna let them go because that 85% is so fucking magical. they’re special and irreplaceable. and others might say “you guys are so perfect for one another” — but that one thing is a really, really big deal…
it’s so tragic but I guess the hard lesson is there’s somebody out there who will fulfill your emotional cups/needs and you have to let the one you’re currently so fucking in love with & attached to— go— for your own future self. to give you both the chance to be happy where you’re really meant to be. with somebody else.
