Hi, sis. Has your body's release of oxytocin fooled you into thinking the guy you're seeing is a catch, when there are actually over a dozen people in your life right now who care about you far more than he ever will?

Some questions to wake you up

Is your neighbor nicer to you than the fuckboy you're seeing?

Are strangers more caring to you and interested in how you're going than your bf?

Are your parents more supportive to you than your husband?

Is your friend more thoughtful than your 8 year bf when it comes to knowing you are as a person?

Do internet strangers get you better than the guy you're dating?

Did your professor notice something's up with you while your bf is oblivious?

Is your therapist more of a partner than your emotionally unavailable husband?

Did you strike up a conversation today with a pleasant cashier, and did it make you feel better than speaking to your constant gaslighter of a husband?

Were the other guys on Tinder more respectful to you than the dud you're dating?

Are your IG followers more encouraging and supportive than your bf?

How about that considerate guy friend who asks your opinion about everything, when your bf could give less than one shit?

Your SO should be held to the highest standards. There should be no one in your life outdoing them in the effort, kindness, respect, consideration, and support department. Don't settle for "good enough". You deserve a COMPLETE partner.

There's no reason to be committing to a guy who is ranked #40 in your list of people who make you feel good about yourself. Think about it. In that case, you should go out with the other Tinder guy who was more respectful, or your male classmate who thinks your ideas are awesome, or your neighbor who cleans your pool and theirs out of niceness. You might as well be roommates with your sister or cousin who is more fun. Do not commit to guys who truly add nothing to your life. How do you know he doesn't? Compare, compare, compare. Men are capable of being thoughtful, attentive, and considerate. Just break up and live your best single life if you find that the LVM you picked is a lemon.
