Some people will only love you as long as you fit in their box. Don’t be afraid to disappoint.
Dr Seuss said “be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind”.
We live in a world where we build relationships on the foundation of surface level connections.
Not investing in the relationship as we don’t want to burden anyone.
Fearing deeply that you don’t want to disappoint anyone.
What if we acknowledge that when you let your guard down enough, deeper friendships forge.
The conversations are real and level of safety for both is the platform.
Question.
Do you get disappointed or pigeon-holed into a box?
Disappointments are necessary.
They lay the foundation for long term genuine relationships.
You see, you will be let down and you will let them down as well.
Unless you have some magical powers that l don’t know about, you will disappoint.
Being human doesn’t ruin relationships.
Hiding your human-ness behind a mask for fear of disappointment will.
