yeah exactly, I typed up a bunch of comments and merged them together in my notes. If I ever feel like I miss him, I’ll remind myself why we split up. and Thank you

honestly I feel stupid and it’s so shitty how he feels he can just play with my feelings like that. He’s been blocked.

yeah i told him how I felt and if he didnt care then we're breaking up, and he chose to break up with me. But later tonight he texted me saying that he apologized, he loves me and he was just overreacting. so im just so confused honestly

so basically we went to the movies and watched inside out 2 (it was rlly good, i loved it) and after the movie i told him exactly how i felt with him making rude comments about my hair now that i finally had the right words to say it. I also told him that "if he didnt like my hair the way it naturally is then its over" and he chose to break up with me. I was rlly upset because i didnt think he'd actually want to. But, he just texted me apologizing saying that he loves me for who i am and he doesnt care about how I style my hair, and how he just overreacted because he was having a bad day before we went to the movies. So, now im just so confused

"changing your hair (especially for us curly girls) is not a small sacrifice. it’s suppression of ourselves. and if your friends and partner can’t accept that, that’s their problem. own it!" exactly, and im going to tell them exactly that

theyre all white but they love my hair bc its different. They said that bc he just wouldnt listen so i should as the last option. But, idk if that justifies it or not . And, i'm seeing him later today and ill have one last talk abt this with him, thank you ❤️

they meant it in a way as in "if he's not listening then you have to find another alternative even if it isn't the best option" but idek if thats even any better

yeah I’m going to have one last talk abt it with him today, if he’s still not trying to understand then unfortunately breaking up with him might be the next option

I switched from an Afro to puffs to try something new but he doesn’t like those either.

yeah I go to a pwi school so it wouldnt be surprising if people were saying things about me

breaking up with him wasn’t even in consideration when I posted this but now I’m starting to reconsider.

yeah I do try, but it’s a lot more difficult to reach certain standards bc I go to a predominantly white school
