relationships can take a long time to process
this imagery came to me out of nowhere. i thought of more poster-like drawings for these, but i just had to quickly draw the bare-bone ideas to preserve it.
i might expand on these later on in more detailed drawings. But for now this is what i can project in its raw form
CAOS
first relationship, ended disastrously
There was probably some good to it, but all that remains in my mind now was the traumatic parts
MELANCOLIA
second relationship, my self worth was left mangled, but i wanted to have a partner still. i really shouldn't have, but i did anyway
this period began my long-term addiction problems
FERVOR
third relationship, short lived and based on the heat of the moment. shaky foundations, but it was great while it lasted
nothing was gained, and nothing was lost. it happened, and i'm happy for it
CONFLICT
current relationship, and very likely the last one i'll have
helped me to overcome my own insecurities, and deal with confrontation in a healthy way, rather than always run from it
has taught me that love is a choice you make every day

It does take a long time to really process what you've been put through. Some things you may never fully understand.
Love is a choice! I've long said that. To put someone in a place of trust they can never fully earn, knowing full well they could harm you, because they're worth it to you.

Yea honestly introspecting can be daunting. It feels like looking back on my journals has helped with it somewhat, though they are very much from my own biased perspective, especially older entries i can somewhat get an "outsider" view of what i was going through
and of course! i'd heard this saying before, but only until this last relationship did i really experience it in that way!. in my 1st relationship i never really loved my partner, and in my 2nd i only really said it to them out of the feeling of wanting to make them feel better, but i didnt genuienyl feel it
nowadays it does feel earned. because despite all our differences and issues with eachother, i can still say it wholeheartedly, and that's a rare thing for me

It can be. I think it's important to constantly look back on our lives, and form an understanding of what we've gone through. Not just on a physical level, either. These experiences are meaningful to us whether or not we accept that.
I like to reflect on things regularly. Often times it's simple and easy, sometimes promoting writing. But on some occasions I have faced things that shatter my view of life, and I must face a perilous journey in order to find myself again. Often as it pertains to love, which I think is the most important experience in our lives and difficult to really understand.
I've never been one for "dating". I feel that a romantic relationship is pointless if it isn't based on love. But I'm very different from most people, and we all get there in our own ways. I've only been with one person I wasn't in love with. Only I thought that I was, and I was really in love with the idea that I could move on. That's why that reflection is important. It was a hard lesson, that I wasn't quite done learning.
Rare, but essential! I'm glad you have that, if it is in earnest. Nothing else really matters.
