Not enough yesterdays

Biggest lesson I’ve learned this year is that you can’t force someone to properly communicate with you & work things out. You can’t force someone to see your love is worth holding onto, eventually they will come to the realization themselves. If they want to run, let them run.

If a man says he’s going to hurt himself unless you do what he says, let him. You aren’t responsible for his actions. You are not guilty for what he does to himself, you don’t owe him, you are not his thing to control, you don’t exist to serve him, you are allowed to go on living your life.

well, you could give him the suicide hotline and go.

Dropping this here because abuse isn’t limited to straight people.

goes for anyone of any gender

“i know i know keep trying” literally everyone around him was busy convincing him to continue harassing her to the point that even he was sick of hearing about it

It’s crazy

Boys and men don’t learn these things in a vacuum. Teach them to respect women and their boundaries early, and don’t assume anyone else will do it either.

Y’all actually have to tell them. Nobody listens to the girl caught up in it so… 

It’s almost like CEOs and cooperations have an agenda making youths have addictions

That’s a pretty wild accusation. I can guarantee you that getting kids addicted is the last thing that the company behind Juul actually wanted.

You weren’t supposed to deepthroat the boot but ok

The thing that kills is the people in the tags claiming that ecigs and vapes were invented to help people quit smoking. No. No they fucking weren’t. You see back in the late 90s/early 2000s, smoking was already starting to decline. Not only that, but states continued to pass anti-smoking legislation like outlawing smoking in bars and restaurants, increasing taxes on tobacco products, restricting the kind of advertising that tobacco companies could use to sell cigarettes, etc. This scared the shit out of tobacco companies. They were smart enough to see the future and it didn’t look good for their profits. That is how things like ecigs and vapes were born. It was a way for them to continue to get people addicted to their products (the nicotine in ecigs and vapes is extracted from tobacco) and still have a captive market, while getting around all the regulations. Now most of the major vape companies are owned by companies that are cleverly hidden subsidiaries of big tobacco companies. It was never about helping people quit smoking. People were already doing that (or never starting in the first place) all on their own, thanks to decades of public health campaigns. It was always about profits and keeping as many people addicted as possible so they would never go out of business.

it lowkey hurt to read this this is to true

I relate even as a bisexual. I had the same behavior around men.

A lot of people ask me what my biggest fear is, or what scares me most. And I know they expect an answer like heights, or closed spaces, or people dressed like animals, but how do I tell them that when I was 17 I took a class called Relationships For Life and I learned that most people fall out of love for the same reasons they fell in it. That their lover’s once endearing stubbornness has now become refusal to compromise and their one track mind is now immaturity and their bad habits that you once adored is now money down the drain. Their spontaneity becomes reckless and irresponsible and their feet up on your dash is no longer sexy, just another distraction in your busy life. Nothing saddens and scares me like the thought that I can become ugly to someone who once thought all the stars were in my eyes.

this fucks me up every single time

This is so fucking important and I think it’s something I needed right now

this is exactly right.
