Kindle Notes & Highlights
And maybe that’s why I’ve stayed as long as I have. It’s hard to leave someone who loves you, even though you know realistically it’s not working. Love is stupid like that. It’s like drinking poison because it tastes good.
For years, it all hurt so much and I swallowed that hurt like medicine. Taking every ounce of that pain in stride like I was supposed to because taking the pain in silence was the only way to be good. Any form of defense was an offense.
