Are You Holding on to Love or Holding Yourself Back?
It's not because you are a bad person; it's because you want to hold on to that love so badly. That's why you value his affection and constantly tolerate his criticism. You tell yourself that he's doing this for your own good, and that comforting narrative feels like the truth.
