sometimes people pretend you’re a bad person so they don’t feel guilty for the things they did to you

Yes, being in a relationship will show you all the issues that you have. But once it comes out that you have issues, they aren’t for your partner to fix, they are for you to fix. Realize you have anger issues? Work it out, don’t take it out in your partner. Realize you have trust issues? Work it out, don’t burden your partner with that. Realize you have insecurities? Work on your self esteem, don’t expect your partner to validate your existence.

Your commitment to your partner is also a commitment to work on yourself. They work on them, you work on you, and you both come together committed to giving your best. And of course, things happen. Sometimes your best also includes mess. But the important thing is to not make it a habit that the person you’re with is someone you use to heal you. That’s not right.

“Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness’s of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”

— Carl Jung
