while i am pretty sure i'm monogamous by nature, i'm glad i experimented with different relationship styles. being part of the poly community helped me unlearn a bunch of useless social norms. it taught me so much about how to be a better friend and communicator as well as how to heal from codependency. that's invaluable.
I gave you a flower everyday
So your bouquet would never empty
But you took each individual flower
Saying, “what am I supposed to do with this?”
And cried over your empty vase
So I kept them for myself instead
How do you discipline yourself when your parents never did
May need to read a lot of self help books for this 👌👍🤘
Notes from Vanessa Bennett's talk "Healing Codependency in Relationships"
Vanessabennett.com
Where do you feel it in the body? (throat, chest, belly)
What’s the impulse? (fix, pursue, shut down, perform)
What’s the story? (“I’m too much / not enough / unsafe / trapped”)
Remember: if something feels really, really urgent, it may be from an old story. (Not always, but) If it feels really big, it may be historical, which is where we start looking at the projection and the story. (Saying: "if it is hysterical, it is historical"—again, not always). Oftentimes, it's not the two of you talking anymore—maybe the two inner kids, or the two subconsciouses, have hijacked the room. Intimacy requires two (messy) humanities in the room.

me to me:
love is good
in all its guts
and all its glory
you don't have to feel bad for it having ended badly
you don't have to feel bad about mourning a love that you couldn't fit into now even if you tried
you will find love again, it will not be what it was but that's ok
because what it was wasn't good, and you deserve to experience better love
so take a breath
take some time
and learn how lean on yourself as you've let others lean on you
this time is important, there is no need to rush
I love you
