Self Respect or Feelings?🤔
Self-respect versus feelings is a poignant tug-of-war, especially for women who often find themselves balancing the needs of others with their own dignity. Let's discuss how women sometimes prioritize others' feelings over their self-respect. Take Tina, for example, always apologizing, even when she's not at fault, just to keep the peace in her family, letting herself be walked over.😔 Then there's Maya, forgiving her partner's disrespect because she is afraid of being alone, sacrificing her self-respect for the sake of maintaining the relationship, even though it's hurting her.☹ Tina needs to learn to stand up for herself and express her feelings, even if it causes temporary conflict within her family.✌ And Maya needs to realize she deserves respect, even if it means walking away from a toxic relationship. 🚶♀️ Yet, it's not always easy. Society often portrays prioritizing self-respect as selfishness, especially for women. But it's not selfish to establish boundaries, it's an act of self-preservation. Prioritize SELF RESPECT, ladies.🧡 What do you often end up choosing? I would love to know your thoughts on this.
