Maturing is realizing that constantly going out of your way for people who wouldn’t do the same for you isn’t a sign of loyalty—it’s a sign of undervaluing yourself. You don’t have to overextend, overgive, or overprove your worth to anyone. Instead, start matching energy. Deal with people how they deal with you—rarely, barely, and accordingly. Protect your peace and prioritize those who truly reciprocate. 💯
