DON'T FORGET YOUR CROWN: Self-Love has everything to do with it.

by Derrick Jaxn

The alcohol addict type of lover may have been a cheater in their distant past or has cheated in every relationship but sincerely

decided that they’ve come to a time in their lives where they’re ready to be 100 percent monogamous. For that lover, keeping that promise doesn’t simply consist of not drinking the alcohol, but also not smelling it, or even staring at it for too long.

Just one phone call that gets accepted from an old flame that understood them the way they wish their current partner did, one conversation that goes too far with someone who’s clearly attracted to them so they can bask in the feeling of being desired, or just one online dating profile used for flirting to stoke the flames of attention that have smoldered at home.
