Submission

Dominating. I have dominated meetings, presentations, proposals almost everything. My personal life I have organized things so strategically that they only know my way. I’ve never felt out of control even in intimate activities. I have created a life that fits my wants needs and desires. Very structured and strategic. Then I met her. Then

The Weight Of Expectation

I think I dodged a serious bullet by not being the first child, but that doesn’t stop the standards and expectations. It doesn’t stop the comparison from the moment parents see any difference that strays away from what they originally want from you or have seen from your older sibling. I’m not sure what it

Sad

The day the scales feel from my eyes was the day I saw myself. I was busy chasing shadows while being barely noticed. I saw myself the way he saw me. Available, ever ready, forgiving, accepting, tolerant, naïve, easy and maybe even easy to manipulate. I don’t know how I missed it before, in fact

It spans from intense romantic desire to platonic, familial, or self-giving care. How do you describe falling in love? How do you describe feeling intense love for someone so deeply that

Wishes

It’s just easy to wish to have something that isn’t yours. To admire the ones that have it, wish to be them, envy them even. But no one ever understands the responsibility of having those things than the one who has it. Imagination is often far different from reality. I think that’s one of the

Self-Sabotage

This is when you unconsciously or consciously act against your own goals, creating obstacles through behaviors like procrastination, perfectionism, self-medication or negative self-talk, often rooted in fear of failure, low self-esteem, or past trauma, and it can be overcome by increasing self-awareness and addressing underlying beliefs.
