You Still Believe in Fairytales? Have You Ever Been Burned?

in CCC4 months ago

He was always on his best behavior, a master of manners, utterly and completely irresistible.

He promised to pluck the moon from the sky for you, with only you in his eyes, making time for you above all else.

It was a classic boy likes girl story, a perfect fairytale of devotion.

That is, until the script flipped.

He got tired and tried to toss you aside like hot coals in his hand.

Suddenly, the man who would rearrange his world for you couldn’t spare a single second. Promises, responsibilities, and anything related to you simply evaporated, as if you were invisible.

Even if he were granted 240 hours in a day, everyone else's shit would still take priority over yours.

Your emergencies didn’t matter; you were left to lie on the curb and go through it all by yourself.

If you are going to die, better make it quick.

This is the consequence of not walking away—of allowing yourself to be burned by the fire like a moth.

Not everyone is worth giving so much of yourself to.

Sorry, but not sorry. I have to burst everyone's bubble. The truth is that fairytales are nothing but beautiful lies.

Todas las relaciones tienen un inicio y, en el, mayormente vemos todo lo bueno, todo lo que nos atrae y nos creamos muchas expectativa. Luego viene la relación y todo cambia, al menos así lo creen muchos, pero resulta que una relación es como todo en esta vida, si evolucionas y te adaptas, todo marcha bien, en caso contrario, seria estancarse y marchitarse la relación, y por ende al fracaso. Los cuentos de hadas no existen, eso de vivieron felices para siempre no es solo porque sí, todo es adaptación, evolución y querer seguir adelante.

Well said, Wlin

I've been burned several times and that pfince on the white horse is someone without a face, did you notice that?
He is not able to win the heart of a living being (Snowwhite, Cinderella, Belle & the Beast, the Sleeping Beauty...) Pepe Le Pew has way more charm and do has the Cat in boots.

A man showering you with love can also change in a manipulative dominant freak isolaging you from everyone.
