When love starts to hurt,
it doesn’t mean you failed at loving.
Sometimes it means you stayed longer
than your nervous system could sustain.
Pain doesn’t always arrive as cruelty.
Sometimes it arrives quietly —
through confusion, through waiting,
through explaining yourself one more time.
This isn’t about blame.
It’s about noticing the moment
care turns into endurance.
And choosing clarity over self-erasure.
