Nothing hurts more than finding out you’re being cheated on. Cheated on by someone you would never ever do it to.

Every time I was more focused on how we looked on social media #relationshipgoals, and not on the overall health of our relationship, I was pushing him away
Over time the inevitable happened, and I learned a valuable lesson.
Refusing my partner of certain desires didn’t mean that those desires went away. They’re still there lying dormant until…
