Love Crumbs
1: What?
When you work on yourself, you are investing in your own growth and happiness. You are taking the time to heal your past, learn new things, and overall become the best version of yourself. This is a journey that takes lots of time and effort, and it is one that is incredibly rewarding.
One of the most important things you can do for yourself when you are working on yourself is to set boundaries. This means saying no to things that are not good for you, and demanding the love and respect that you deserve, from your point of view, remember, love has two directions. Love crumbs are not acceptable for those of us who work in the self.
Love crumbs are the scraps of attention and affection that someone gives you when they are not really interested in you, not at a deeper level, at least not enough to make them decide for you. They may text you once a day, or call you when they are bored. They may make plans with you and then cancel at the last minute. They may give you mixed signals, making you feel like you are not sure where you stand.
Love crumbs are not enough. They are not nourishing or fulfilling. They will leave you feeling empty and unsatisfied. If you are working on yourself, you deserve more than love crumbs. You deserve a love that is full and complete, not unconditional, but that is another story.
2: Why?
There are several reasons why love crumbs are not acceptable for those who work on themselves.
- Love crumbs are a sign of disrespect. When someone gives you love crumbs, they are essentially saying that they do not value you enough to give you their full attention. They are treating you like an option, not a priority - one big difference, not "the priority" as that's only oneself, but a priority.
- Love crumbs are not sustainable. If you are constantly accepting love crumbs, you will never feel truly loved or appreciated. You will always be left wanting more, unsatisfied and if the acceptance for this already happened, it will not change.
- Love crumbs can damage your self-esteem. When you accept love crumbs, you are sending the message to yourself that you are not worthy of being loved fully. This can damage your self-esteem and make it difficult to believe that you deserve to be happy, loved, cherished for and desired.
3: How?
If you are working on yourself, it is important to:
- Set boundaries. This means saying no to things that are not good for you, and understanding that you will get what you allow yourself to get, not what you deserve. You will feel more confident and worthy.
- Be clear about your needs and expectations. Let the other person know what you are looking for in a "relationship" or whatever invention you are getting yourself into. You will attract better relationships.
- Don't be afraid to walk away. If the other person is not willing to give you what you need, don't be afraid to walk away. You will be happier.
By doing this, you are doing yourself a favour. You are setting yourself up for a happy and fulfilling life. If you are working on yourself, it is important to understand where you stand. Love crumbs are not acceptable. You deserve a love that is full and complete, and the fulfilment of the desires that are within you.
