One of the most toxic things we do is justify things to ourselves. It’s like “he doesn’t treat me right, but he loves me, right?” You’ve been there, I’ve been there. And you’ll make excuses like that because you love them. It’s just one of the silly things we do for the people we love, we can’t help it - but it’s these things you can’t brush off. It should never be a question of whether or not someone loves you. And if someone is treating you wrong, you cannot justify that. There is no reason someone can’t treat you right. These little red flags, you might not see them, but they’re there, and do yourself a favor, when you see them, don’t ignore them.
