The Situation

"She's still talking to the guy she cheated with"

The Brutal Truth

She's keeping the door open with someone she betrayed, showing a lack of commitment and respect for your relationship. This indicates unresolved feelings and a willingness to repeat the past. You deserve someone fully invested in you, not stuck in their past.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might beg for reassurance or try to sweeten the relationship, believing they can somehow win him over. This is dangerous because it leads to more dependency and reinforces feelings of inadequacy. You shouldn’t have to chase someone to feel worthy of love.

💭 Something to Reflect On

What patterns in your relationships have led you to tolerate behavior that undermines your worth?
