Healed Girls Love Differently

 What It Means to Choose Love After Choosing Yourself First

There was a time she loved with her whole body.
Even the broken parts. She gave too quickly. Forgave too easily.
And stayed far too long in places that only wanted her in pieces.

Not because she didn’t know her worth—
but because she was still learning how to live it.

When She Loved From Her Wounds

Before healing, love was survival. She loved to be chosen. To be wanted. To prove she was enough. Every reply meant validation. Every “I miss you” felt like oxygen.
And when they left, it was as if she had to restart her own heartbeat.

She romanticized red flags into roses. Called chaos passion. Mistook attention for intimacy. She held hands with pain and called it love. But that was before.
