Some people will hurt you in ways that nobody else sees. They’ll strike in silence, where the pain is yours alone to carry.
Then, when the world is watching, they’ll show up pretending to care—acting like the savior, so they can polish their own image.
These kinds of people aren’t helping you out of love or concern; they’re feeding their ego at the cost of your wounds.
It’s a reminder to be cautious of those who create the fire and then show up with a bucket of water just to look like the hero. Real love, real friendship, and real support don’t work that way.
Genuine people won’t hurt you in private just to gain praise in public—they’ll stand with you consistently, whether or not there’s an audience.
Protect your peace, recognize the snakes for who they are, and value those rare souls who never need a stage to prove their loyalty.
