#judgmental

When irony hits harder than the blunt.

I got home from school early today and my cat doesn't know what to make of my presence

I haven’t posted in almost a month and my model is clearly unimpressed.

"No changing for anyone." "That's just how I am." You're never going to be happy. You see every conversation, every attempt for clarity as an argument or a fight. And you don't like to fight, so you avoid talking. You disappear for weeks. When clarity comes, or is asked for, you reject it and you shut down instead. You don't compromise. You're stuck in your ways. But you know what? Sometimes, relationships require compromise. You don't have to run at the first sign of conflict. You can look at someone else and see a million flaws, make a thousand judgments, but when it comes to looking in the mirror? All you can do is deflect. 'No changing, that's just how I am.' Even when you know it's a problem? Even when it's hurtful? Your next relationship - it'll be good for awhile, just like we were. Until the cycle repeats. You'll still have all the same problems because you refuse to bend or change, even at the cost of hurting others - or yourself. I hope you know that. I hope you know you're your biggest obstacle.
