Trust Issues🥀

I remember sitting on a bench outside school, trying not to cry after a friend I trusted told my secrets like they meant nothing. That day stayed with me. Since then, every time someone gets close, a part of me braces for the moment they leave or change. Trust started to feel like a risk I could never afford again. I’ve noticed how I pull away even when someone is being kind. How I overthink simple texts, expecting lies hidden between the lines. But I’m learning that healing doesn’t mean forcing myself to trust. It means listening to the little voice inside me that knows what feels right and what doesn’t. Now, I remind myself that it’s okay to move slowly. It’s okay to ask for reassurance. The right people will not make me feel crazy for needing time. They will sit beside me, not push, and let me grow back into trust one small moment at a time #TrustTakesTime #HealingConnections #GentleFriendship #LoveSafely #SoftBoundaries 🫧
