The Orchard of the Heart
No matter what state you are in, you must understand that the goal of life is health and happiness. Say goodbye to unhappy people and things.

In any relationship, if it constantly triggers your vulnerability, anxiety, and unease—and you find yourself unable to change the dynamic—leaving may be the best choice. In life, learn to treat yourself kindly by knowing when to walk away. Leaving certain people isn't necessarily because they are "bad," but because being with them makes you feel bad.
