You know this relationship hurts you.

You know something isn't right.

And yet… he can’t leave.

And then comes the guilt.

You start to think that maybe the problem is you.

That is being weak.

That is failing because it cannot put a stop to it.

But is it really “weakness”?

Or is it fear that holds you back?

Real fear. Of not surviving.

Of not being able to handle yourself. Of not having ground. Of not being able to bear the pain.

This fear is not an exaggeration.

He lives in the body, not just in the head.

It was formed way back when you learned that to avoid being abandoned, you had to please. You had to give in. You had to accept.

Even when it hurt.

You learned that your survival depended on the other.

And today, even as an adult, her body still reacts as if she were that child trying to secure love at any cost.

That's why shame appears.

You feel wrong for not being able to leave a place that hurts you.

You feel inadequate, as if you are failing once again.

But this shame is not yours.

It was placed on you, along with many humiliations that you had to swallow in silence.

And as much as it seems impossible to escape this web today… there is a way.

A path of reconstruction.

To begin to feel your own emotions safely.

Of learning to say no. Of learning to say yes.

To rediscover who you are, without having to mold yourself to fit anyone else.

You don't have to handle everything alone.

With support, with care, with loving presence…

it is possible to get out of this cycle.

And when this movement begins…

what once seemed impossible, begins to seem… possible.

You are not alone.

There is a way.

There is a way.

And you deserve to experience something lighter and more true.
