Thank you to this incredible page and community — you stood by me during the darkest days, and today, I finally reached the light.

Today is the day of clarity. The day I truly felt self-love — something I never knew I needed so deeply.

I now see every red flag I once ignored, and I finally understand why I was so unhappy in that relationship.

The hardest thing to spot is emotional manipulation. Sometimes it’s easier to recognize abuse when it’s loud and aggressive. But when it’s quiet, wrapped in kindness, stability, and a nice house, it’s harder.

You fall in love with the illusion. And in the process, you slowly abandon yourself.

No woman who truly loves herself should settle for crumbs. Here’s what those crumbs looked like for me: • He doesn’t visit you, but he’s tired and raising kids. • He didn’t buy you a birthday gift until you reminded him, but at least he got something. • You don’t go on dates, but he’s broke, right? (Meanwhile, he orders food every day and his kids never lack anything.) • He never initiates intimacy, but he’s always “in pain.”

This list is endless. And yet, we convince ourselves it’s love.

Until the day you realize you were acting like a wife to a man who only saw you as a helper.

So here’s what I’ve learned: • Don’t give your energy to someone who wouldn’t lift a finger for you. • Don’t raise their kids. • Don’t clean their house. • Don’t buy them clothes. • Don’t abandon yourself just to feel “chosen.”

Because one day you won’t be. And they’ll replace you like an old t-shirt. And you’ll sit there asking yourself, “What did I do wrong?” “Should I have done more?”

No. You did too much.

You were more than enough — for the wrong person.

Dear women, your love is sacred. Stop giving your energy to men who drain you and call it love.

Real love doesn’t feel like a sacrifice. It feels like peace.
