u/FreeFood-ForAll

Lost my job and my relationship in the same month.
My first instinct was to run—new city, new life, pretend I’m fine.

Didn’t.

Sat with it. Realized I wasn’t just “free-spirited”… I was avoiding hard choices.
Started setting boundaries, stopped saying yes to everything.

No glow-up. No big comeback.
Just… slowly becoming someone I actually respect again.
