I know for myself, from what I witnessed growing up love was violent, loud, fighting, sex, crying, constant drama and a lot of tears so naturally that's the relationships I attracted for many years. It took so much digging to realize what real love meant. It also took many miserable relationships one after the other, constantly feeling not enough and literally crazy.
I can promise you this is not love. Love is healing the parts of ourselves that are wounded and learning to take care of ourselves and have self respect. For me, fear of abandonment kept me stuck in toxic relationships for years.
It's ok to be stuck if you still are but never give up on yourself and the healing process. It's worth it and eventually, with a little courage and strength, you can find that love in yourself that others will see and they will find you. The hard part is letting go of toxic people and trusting that healthy people will start showing up in your life.
