having signature jewlery that u always wear is very important i can’t explain it
Start looking at arguing with someone as a privilege because it really says that they’re important enough to you that you’re willing to take it there. That they’re worth you raising your cortisol, wrecking your nervous system, getting emotional over etc. It shows you care enough to invest your time and energy into them despite all these reasons that negatively affect you. Not everyone earns that kind of attention & honestly, not every situation is worth the emotional energy. Communication is very powerful and in a healthy dynamic, arguments aren’t always necessary, especially not frequent ones
brb I’m going to cleanse my energy and remember that things will fall into place at the right time and what I need right now is to build myself up into best version of myself
People pleasers + selfish people
People pleasers tend to attract selfish people because their tendencies create the perfect dynamic for someone who is self centered or even emotionally manipulative. Selfish people thrive in relationships where they can take without much effort in return and people pleasers unintentionally reinforce this dynamic by not setting strong boundaries
At the same time, people pleasers also gravitate toward selfish individuals because they subconsciously seek validation from those who are hardest to please. It becomes a toxic cycle—one where the pleaser keeps trying to "earn" love, approval, or recognition from someone who prioritizes themselves above all else
Selfish people measure their morality based on their own feelings, rather than how they actually treat others. They can dismiss your needs, hurt you and still believe they’re a good person—simply because they felt bad for a moment or never intended harm
They think that if they feel guilty, they must be a good person. They think that if they didn't mean to hurt you, that you shouldn't be upset and if they are upset about their actions.. you need to comfort them
At the same time, they’ll also justify the moments when they are intentionally selfish or hurtful, excusing their actions instead of taking accountability
The reality is that they only care when their own emotions are affected. If they actually valued you, they’d care about the impact of their actions, not just their own guilt or discomfort. A good person takes responsibility and makes an effort to change—not just feel sorry for themselves
It’s exhausting dealing with someone who prioritizes their own emotional comfort over your actual well being. That’s why boundaries are key. If they only care when they feel bad, but not when you are hurt, they’re not as good as they think they are
People pleasers need to recognize one sided relationships and stop giving to those who only take. Setting boundaries isn’t selfish, it’s necessary. When you learn to protect your energy, you’ll stop attracting people who drain you and start surrounding yourself with those who truly value you
My dad raised me to not depend on people, but still expect things from them. This shifts the brain from hyper independence to healthy discernment. Hyper independence is a trauma response. What’s healthier is self sufficiency with connection—knowing you can stand alone but don’t have to. It’s about expecting reciprocity from others and being willing to remove those who don’t meet that standard
Personal question, do you let your friends joke with you in a mean way? ex. i had to cut majority of my hair off due to heat and i was telling a friend how i finally have enough to straighten it and she told a friend by us something about me being bald head then told me it was cute vs just complementing me
Lol, no. I don’t like jokes (which is ironic because I’m also very funny 🤣), but I don’t have a sense of humor when it comes to things like that. If I were in a similar situation, my friends would be finding solutions for me. All my friends and I compliment, motivate, and support each other. There’s just no room for that type of behavior in friendships, especially if your friends know you intimately and understand your soft spots. I’ve been in a similar position years ago with a horrible group of girlfriends who criticized and judged me. In my case, they were all sleeping with my ex and were mad because he wouldn’t leave me apparently. Not everyone is your friend, angel and you don’t need anyone who talks about you behind your back or puts you down 🤍
Now some advice about more important things, like your hair and not those people:
Rosemary Oil, Castor Oil & Pumpin seed oil are great for hair growth & thickness
For shine and softness, you can put in Argan Oil, Jojoba Oil or Olive Oil
For scalp & dandruff you can use Coconut Oil, Neem Oil or Tea Tree Oil
Alma Oil, Black Seed Oil or Baobab for strength and repair
Peppermint Oil boosts circulation
Lavender Oil as well
Aloe Vera soothes your scalp and conditions hair
You can also take biotin pills for your hair and nails. Works wonders
Castor oil, Rosemary, Lavender, Amla and Jojoba are what I personally do :)
Oh! And start drinking green tea every day
Let’s focus on you and your confidence and less on others 🤍
