So you knew the habit and how it was altering you and you kept feeling onto it.
You saw the red flag and stains. You knew you were doing too much for that person that never appreciated you and you kept on doing it.
What did you dare to change?
Are you just postponing, hoping that things will change? And the more you keep going, the more the pain keeps increasing.
It is easy to blame the second chance because it gives you somewhere else to look out for. But there comes a point where accountability becomes more useful than sympathy.
If your choice helps create a life you are happy with, that choice can change everything. It can become the beginning of a different thing which cannot favour you at all.
