people who blame you, get angry at you, and leave you for not being able to get out of abusive relationships and situations are not the type of people to keep around you. people who write off your abuse and tell you ‘i told you so’ when it keeps happening are not the type of people to keep around you. people who won’t even try to understand that because you’ve been abused, because its been normalized and because you’re too scared to try to get out because you’ve been trained to need to keep others around you no matter what because you’re scared of abandonment are not people to keep around you. you deserve so much better than that, and you deserve to know that it isn’t your fault for being taken advantage of. people will always always always mistake kindness for weakness, and people will always be selfish and take advantage when they can. it is not your fault for being abused. you aren’t weak for not being able to get away, or for letting them back in because they make you think things will be different. you didn’t do anything wrong, and you didn’t cause it. even if your abusers guilt trip you, even if you can’t bring yourself to believe it now, you really really don’t deserve to be abused. even if you couldn’t tell it was abuse until you got out. you’re worth so much more than the fake friends who tell you that you brought it on yourself, and you’re worth so much more than the people who abused you. you’ll be okay, and it’s okay if you aren’t yet. you will be. you can do it.
