I don’t think parental love is truly valuable as it’s made out to be. I honestly think it’s a weird dynamic. like you depend on them and also there’s all these expectations and stuff. I dunno. maybe for some people it’s all good. but I just think it’s weird

i feel like the people who feel the most unlovable rn will get it later in life. normally they make others around them feel the most loved and appreciated when they don’t get it themselves. the right person will love you more than anybody ever could and even tho—

your parents were emotionally neglectful growing up, your partner will love every part of you. it may not be here rn but ik one day that love (beyond what your parents could give) will come to you 🫶
