Let’s talk, beautiful friend.
It’s important.
𝘋𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩.
So…
I think it’s time to forgive her.
I know, I know. She’s hurt you. She’s hurt others.
But she needs forgiveness for the way she responded to all that happened to her. What happened wasn’t her fault, and she didn’t deserve it.
You don’t have to forget her mistakes — it’s better to hold her accountable. But her heart is SO good. You know that, right? Besides, forgiveness is healing for you — it’s transformative.
So I’m suggesting this gently…
let your anger go.
And then, when you're ready, give her another chance.
I know that not everyone deserves so many chances — but she does. She’s trying so hard. And to be honest, with your expectations? She’ll need all the chances in the world.
So give the girl a break, okay?
You expect 𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 from her. Don’t you see how much she gives already? Don’t you see everything she does? You have no idea how much your approval matters. She needs you to believe in her. She needs you to see.
If you can give her just that much… you’ll help her find her joy again.
Do you remember how she used to laugh? She used to be playful. And silly! Remind her how it felt. Sit with her and reminisce. Laugh together —from the belly. Gosh, you used to have the best time.
But life is overwhelming, and she’s been through hell and hurt. It can be lonely sometimes, and sad. Sometimes she’s anxious, or worried, or scared.
But when she taps into her joy? Her soul is just electric. So help her hold tight to the happiness… by proving she can count on you in good times and in bad.
And please, FOR THE LOVE, show the girl your truest kindness.
You’re 𝘴𝘰 kind to everyone else… why not her? Do you think your words don’t hurt her? 𝘖𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘥𝘰.
Maybe she didn’t always get it right. Maybe she still doesn’t. But in giving her some grace, you’ll be shocked by what you see. You won’t believe how spectacular she is. You won’t believe the things she’s done. Things that will matter when the rest of this is gone.
She deserves to be treated better by you.
She deserves to feel worthy. She deserves to feel beautiful.
She’s earned those wrinkles. And she rocks them. And the strands of gray in her hair? They only add to her loveliness.
Look, I know you don’t think she sparkles like she used to… but you’re wrong.
𝘚𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘢 𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦.
Can you see it?
I can.
And I can sense you opening up your heart to her. I can sense you wanting to forgive.
Let it be the unconditional kind of forgiveness… the kind that stays with her. The kind that stays with 𝘺𝘰𝘶.
No, you should never allow toxicity back into your relationship. Never.
But allow her to be human. That’s all she can be. Okay?
Now it’s time to be brave, my dear. I know it’s hard to look her in the eye with tenderness. I know it’s hard to take this step.
But you must.
Because she’s right there, ready to love you.
She’s right there, ready to mend and nurture your relationship.
She’s right there… just 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦 for your acceptance.
She is 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 there.
In the mirror.
