I Am Simultaneously Consumed By The Fear Of Being Too Much While Also Dreading Not Being Enough

I am simultaneously consumed by the fear of being too much while also dreading not being enough

I have the very real fear of becoming dependent on my boyfriend for emotional support and if it doesn’t work out later I’ll not know how to deal with myself anymore…🤡

Everyone talks about the independent eldest daughter (rightfully so). Still, we should also talk about us single daughters who have had to be the son and daughter of the house while also being the parents to our parents and ourselves. We grow up having no one else to rely on and learning to do everything on our own to avoid being a burden. We are the girls who live so much in our heads that we feel like the loneliness is a lifelong companion we are born with. We are the girls who don't need to and cannot ask for help because we learn very early on that only they are going to be there for themselves. This is for the single daughters who constantly feel misunderstood and always alone.

The most excruciating part of unrequited love is having to break your own heart constantly. Especially when you've been hurt before and so the next time onward you keep preventing the eventual heartache by spending every waking moment slowly ruining and breaking your own heart.
