People who genuinely love you do not have a preferred version of you that they are quietly hoping you return to. They do not leave the door open to the old you as a passive suggestion. They do not get uncomfortable when you raise your standards, change your mind, or become someone your past self would not entirely recognize. They just keep showing up for whoever you are becoming. 🔑 Share this with someone currently shrinking their growth to stay comfortable inside a relationship that was only designed to hold a smaller version of them.
