Took us 3 years of dating to find a communication style that works for us. Love ain’t for kids, y’all. You gotta find that balance between “not about to let nobody play me” and “I’m fighting for this because it’s what I want”. It’s a fine line to walk, but it’s there.
If you’re listening to respond instead of listening to understand, y’all will never find any common ground and the issue is likely to arise again in the future. Y’all have a good weekend and I hope 2020 brings u what u need ✨
No bullshit, I need to say this: I’m extremely proud of finally getting my bachelors degree. I didn’t gather all my friends and family for this moment because it was more personal than anything. For me, it was about finishing something I started 14 years ago.
Clarification: dating includes the timeframe from meeting and hitting it off to being in a committed relationship. Ain’t nobody doing that “talkin stage” bullshit for 3 years
For ppl asking me questions, I’m not a love coach lol. But I am a psych major and I’m happy to share my experience w y’all, but everybody’s is gon be different. Overall just be receptive, if somebody arguing it’s bc they care enough to argue.
Anyway, Happy National Boyfriend Day to the one that steals my socks, my shorts, my shirts, my toothpaste, my protein shakes, my durags, my shower gel, my snacks, my patience & my heart

In my relationship, it works best for both sides to enter the convo trying to understand the other person perspective before expressing their own. I mean of course somebody gotta talk first but the desire to understand instead of argue makes a world of a diff
As stubborn as we are, our insistence on seeing shit through to the end is lowkey inspiring to y’all, and it’s also why yall know we’re dependable and solid as a rock 🙂
