situationship but make it stress-free? read this first

Make it exclusive: If they’re juggling multiple situationships, it’s a red flag. You need equality here. Be honest with yourself: Can you handle something casual? If you're secretly hoping for more, it’s not the right fit. Limit emotional investment: Don’t give more than 30% of your heart. Keep your feelings in check—don’t act like a girlfriend if you're not one. Know what you want: Whether it’s emotional support, fun, or something else, make sure you’re getting something out of it. Don’t waste time on someone who isn’t adding value. Don’t expect stability: This isn’t a committed relationship. Don’t chase daily conversations or a predictable pattern. Stick to your principles: If they’re disrespecting your boundaries, walk away. Your principles matter more than the situation. A healthy situationship should enhance your life, not complicate it. #situationship #boundaries #datingwisdom

Am I being selfish for cutting off toxic family?

So, things went down with some family, and I just can’t see myself ever involving them in my life again. Other relatives are saying you can’t cut ties with family, but I disagree. For my own mental health, I’ve chosen to cut off certain people. I’ve forgiven them, but I don't want them in my life ever again. I’m still civil if we cross paths, but boundaries are set. Is this selfish, or am I just doing what I need to do? #familydrama #mentalhealthmatters #boundaries

Why do we have to like our family? Shouldn’t we have a choice?

I’ve been thinking a lot about how we’re expected to always like our family. Like, I don’t get along with my sister, and I feel guilty about it, but why should I have to? Just because someone’s family doesn’t mean we should automatically click or feel obligated to be close. Honestly, some of my friends have been more supportive than my family ever has. If we can choose who to be friends with, why is there so much pressure to always be around relatives, even if we don’t vibe? It’s okay to distance yourself from family if it’s for your mental peace. #familydynamics #mentalhealth #boundaries

Roommate Treats My Stuff Like Community Property

Ever had that moment when you open your closet and—surprise!—your favorite hoodie is missing? Yeah, me too. Living with my roommate, Jake, is like living with a very friendly raccoon who thinks everything shiny is up for grabs. At first, I tried the whole, "Hey, could you ask before you borrow my stuff?" routine. He'd just laugh it off and say, "We’re basically family!" Sure, but last I checked, family doesn’t eat the last slice of my birthday cake. Eventually, I started hiding my snacks and labeling my chargers like I was prepping for a zombie apocalypse. It felt ridiculous, but it worked. The best part? Jake finally noticed and we had a real talk—awkward, but honest. Now, we actually share some things (on purpose!) and respect each other's space. Who knew boundaries could be so sweet? 🍰🔒 #RoommateProblems #PersonalSpace #Boundaries

You've reached the end!
