I look around my life right now and just feel completely exhausted and trapped wishing more than anything that I could just wake up in a completely different house with a different family who actually cares about me. I am so tired of dealing with the constant emotional abuse from my mom and the creepy perverted behavior of her boyfriend and I just want to live in a place where I finally feel safe and respected. It hurts so deeply to look around and wonder why no one seems to love or want me especially since I've been single for so long and it feels like nobody likes me or sees my worth. It is incredibly lonely to come home to a place filled with toxicity and fear rather than a sanctuary and it makes me question why finding a genuine connection or a peaceful life feels so completely out of reach for me. I just want to be in an environment where I am valued where I don't have to walk on eggshells and where I can finally experience what it feels like to be safe and truly loved. -Shy <3
