to go from begging for the bare minimum to never having to ask for anything again

Don’t make excuses for people. And don’t settle for less. The love you want is out there 🫶🏼 #Love #couple #couplegoals #boyfriend #couplevideos #gentleman #lovelanguage #princesstreatment

Every one has different love languages and no one is a mind reader. You have to communicate your needs. After you’ve communicated your needs, be patient, as it’s new behaviors people have to learn if what you’re wanting it’s not their primary love language. But it comes to a point. If you’ve communicated your needs over and over again, and you’re still getting nowhere. Know it’s not important enough to them to learn. Loving someone in your own love language is easy. Loving someone in theirs is where true effort is shown. Never settle 💓 #lovelanguage #wordsofaffirmation #neversettle #Relationship

I looked over at Alexander and told him this is my first birthday in 4 years that hasn’t been spent arguing and it’s insane to think back on. People think being in a healthy relationship is easier, when in reality there are so many things you have to unlearn. Behaviors you’ve adopted as defense mechanisms and trauma you have to work through. A spotlight on your own behaviors and growth you need to continue.

Soft love and complete adoration

Created a schedule so we know when to pull meat out of the freezer from our cow and budget more efficiently for the grocery store 🫱🏼‍🫲🏻

Where my words of affirmation and physical touch girlies at

Meal prep that has helped me lose 25 pounds. Nothing crazy. Just consistency, discipline, and showing up even when I don’t want to, on or off duty. Don’t ask how long it takes, you’re not in the right mindset. Find an approach that you can sustain for the rest of your life. If that’s 3x a week at the gym and getting 7k steps a day, then do that. If that’s eating healthy 80% of the time then do that. Through trial and error I’ve found what works for me and what burns me out quickly. Find what healthy lifestyle works for you. Meal 1: Blueberry waffles Meal 2: Chicken Chipotle bowls Meal 3: Steak Caesar salad Meal 4: Steak Caesar salad Snacks: Apple, protein shake, soft boiled eggs Dessert: Greek yogurt parfait #mealprep #weightloss #fatloss #mealprepideas

Stop begging someone to love you the way you love them. Stop repeating yourself. Wait for your person. It will hurt a lot, but then you’ll be okay. God has a plan for you 💗

You will be missed Krystal. So much. I’m trying so hard to trust the plan. If you’re in a painful place right now, lean in. Talk to someone. Pray even if it’s messy. The enemy isolates. God restores. Krystal believed in God and I don’t think she would want anyone to turn away from Him because of this. “When we are in a pit of despair, a place of grieving or distress, it is common to push others away. In hindsight, we can usually see where the power of God has comforted us, where he alleviated the pain, where he gave us freedom from negative, painful emotions. But while we're in those places, it's often hard to see the great Comforter at work. For one, while it is a natural tendency to want to push others away and isolate, know this is exactly what the enemy wants you to do. It's playing into his hand when we do this. Isolation can be good for a short period of time, but this is not the place where you will find healing. Look at the example of David in the book of Psalms. There were many times when he was in a place that seemed hopeless, but staying there was not an option. The comforting presence of God may not change your circumstances, but he will change your perspective, calm your emotions, and ease the pain you feel, if you will only invite him to do so and then allow him to do the work only he can do.” Heavenly Father, today, in the midst of a life that is often filled with pain and difficult circumstances, I welcome your presence. I'm not asking you to change the circumstances. I am only asking you to provide me with your presence that comforts me through it all.
