People say they want true love, while holding on to something toxic

Self-harm comes in different forms. It’s not just cigarette smoking, putting a blade to your wrist slow kind of death. People hurt themselves every day. Holding on to things that have already gone. Holding on to the people that have already let go. Holding on to someone who continuously lets you down is self-harm. Being with someone who constantly makes love feel painful is self-harm. Being with someone who is inconsiderate, selfish, and negative is self-harm. Being with someone who is not supportive, unreliable, and incapable of telling the truth is self-harm. Loving the wrong person is just another form of self-harm.
