she lost her shit, cried for a minute
Precisely. It’s not the same a year into a relationship is it?
we’re just way more chill, it wasn’t that we liked homegirl better we just knew we had an excuse in the bank
Did we though?
Sha’s reaction was a lot more severe.
She was good to us, even when she was still figuring out how to be.
We didn’t have a right to hurt her
These are the lessons in life that are more subtle.
You can have bullet-proof logic and still be wrong.
We don’t have a right to hurt someone else just because they hurt us, or could have possibly hurt us. This is the logic of preemptive war defended by so many
emotional children
It’s the same way that we don’t have a right to make someone feel uncomfortable due to our own uncomfortable loneliness.
Or anger at being lied to, chasing them in cars just because we know we’re right.
you love arguing with people until they feel uncomfortable
That’s the wisdom of life, right? Knowing when to push the issue, in the name of truth or whatever value you’re upholding. And then knowing when to back off, because the person across the argument from you is still a human being worthy of love.
