If you’re still in the thick of it, still trying to save someone who keeps hurting you, let me say what I wish someone had told me:
It’s not your job to fix them.
You don’t need to destroy yourself to prove your love.
You are allowed to leave — even if they’re “not all bad.”
You deserve to feel safe in love, not scared.
Your love is not wasted.
But it’s time to redirect it — back to yourself.
Final Words: I Didn’t Save Them. I Saved Me.
Looking back, I realize something powerful:
I thought I was trying to save them from their demons.
But really, I was trying to save the dream I had of who they could be.
They never became that person.
But I became someone stronger.
I became someone who finally chose herself.
And in the end, that’s the only kind of saving that truly matters.
Sharing is caring!
