I want to tell this to everybody today that most relationships donât fall apart because people stop loving each other.
They fall apart because no oneâs telling the truth.
And by âtruth,â I donât mean dramatic arguments or late-night breakdowns.
I mean the quiet, uncomfortable honesty, like admitting you feel lonely even when you're sitting right next to them.
Like confessing youâre scared they wouldnât love the version of you thatâs anxious, insecure, or just plain exhausted.
Weâre taught to hold it together. To be the strong one. To not âburdenâ anyone.
But emotional intimacy doesnât come from strength, it comes from access.
And when you're always composed, always âfine,â you become emotionally unreachable.
Hereâs the paradox of vulnerability:
The more open you are about whatâs really going on inside, the fear, the self-doubt, the not-having-it-all-together...the safer your partner feels with you.
Because now, theyâre not just looking at you. Theyâre with you.
Not because youâre broken. But because youâre real.
And no, it doesnât take both of you doing this at the same time.
One person going first is enough to shift everything!
So if you feel the connection has gone quiet..Donât try harder.
Just get honest with your partner! â¤ď¸
