A take on my past relationships and lessons learned throughout them. ** Names are changed for privacy of course **

Over the last 34 years I have met a lot of people, formed a lot of bonds, and been taking advantage of more times then I would like to admit. For years I would blame myself, wonder what was wrong with me, and yet kept surrounding myself with people that mimicked the same people who hurt me time and time again. I always considered myself a ” strong” person because I had been through a lot and thought that was just who I was. Someone who experienced terrible things. For years, I was in and out of therapy with little to no change and just accepting my fate, internally hoping for peace one day.

In 2019 I was sexually assaulted in my own home, lost the person I considered a best friend, and felt truly alone for the first time in life. This was the turning point in my life. I knew I had to make changes and used everything I learned in my personal and professional career to change. With a he** of a lot of work I have healed a lot of my past and continue to heal moving forward.

I have found peace with myself and am now surrounded by genuinely amazing people.

However, in the process I had to do a lot of self actualization. This blog will be my take on my previous relationships and the lessons learned throughout them. In a effort to continue to heal and let others know they are not alone.
