As someone who doesn’t drink alcohol in an environment where almost everyone does I’m really happy to have friends who understand me and don’t try to force me to drink, but this happened because I communicated how I felt and set that boundary. Communication is very important.

[@WobblesandBean]

For the first time in my life, I'm in a healthy relationship with a wonderful man. I've never felt like this before, and I'm so happy. You're so right, communication is key, and NONE of my exes have ever bothered to do this. Many of them were toxic, and a few were straight up abusive. I told myself I needed to respect myself enough to walk away from any man who wasn't communicative or only loved me for who they wanted me to be, rather than who I was. It took 40 years for me to finally realize that I should never have had to settle, and that I'm worthy of being loved and treated so well. For decades, I assumed I wasn't worth it. Now I am working so hard to better myself, always striving to learn and grow, so I can be the best version of me to keep both myself and my relationship strong.

My entire family broke all 8 of these signs with me, especially boundaries and communication. It is no wonder that I didn't have any self worth to improve my symptoms at all (autism, selective mutism, injured brain). This is why I want to sleep and cry forever and why I really hate my family. I don't want to experience any neurological symptoms and keep being discouraged from improving the symptoms.

Yes, I had all this. Communicated about everything... I thought so. Then she suddenly breaks up overnight, changes her entire personality and life goals, and distances herself from all her friends. Lies to me, breaks my trust and heart and starts to cry how bad she feels for doing this to me, but won't take it back. So, not that healthy, isn't it? Those signs mean nothing, when the person you love is lying to herself and manipulates you into thinking these things. You can not trust these signs! Never!

How awesome is having such lovely and healthy relationships with friends and romantic partner. Personally, realizing of how take care of myself first allowed me to have better connections with people who really were interested on me. For years, I just pleased everyone because I was afraid of being myself, my hard depressive episodes as well as anxiety crisis drained all my energy and felt so lonely. Although, I am still going it through, I met such lovely being who nowadays I can rely on. Maybe, I have less friends but let me tell you they're real friends, as my second family. About my romantic partner, it was complex to let him know how I am, but telling my stories, getting knowledge about ur dreams, fears, goals and sense of life made me realize I'm in a safe place. Of course, I have no idea if I last forever with him, we both just living in present. We already had disagreements, conflicts but we always try to make it up because we deserve love again. So, no worries if you don't have boyfriend or girlfriend yet or be surrounded by many friends, slow down, you'll get ur time and when happen, please live it, live it!
