When you grow up around toxic behaviors, it makes sense that you’d be drawn towards relationships that mimic those behaviors because it reminds you of the love you had as a kid:

- constant criticism
- lack of boundaries
- invalidation

That’s a common result of childhood trauma.

Cutting someone off isn't about getting the other person to change; we’re not holding the relationship hostage. It's about clarity, creating the space you need to heal, and reclaiming your peace.

Here's the truth: You can deeply appreciate someone and still call out a toxic behavior. It's not about choosing one over the other.
