As survivors, we tend to give excuses. <p>This isn’t out of anything other than having huge hearts and a longing for love.</p> <p>We understand what we’ve been through and how we feel and we don’t want others feeling this way.</p> <p>Because of that, we’ll be more understanding than we should.</p> <p>“He’s been through a lot, I want to be there for him.”</p> <p>“His parents weren’t there for him – I will be.”</p> <p>“He has so much childhood trauma he’ll be completely alone without me.”</p> <p>And so on and so forth.</p> <p>We feel like because they’ve been through something, they have an excuse to act that way.</p> <p>But that’s not true.
