Free yourself from the habit of keeping doors open to people who stopped being deserving of access to you a long time ago. That door you keep check
Free yourself from the habit of keeping doors open to people who stopped being deserving of access to you a long time ago.
That door you keep checking?
That “maybe they’ll change” door?
That “I don’t want to seem mean” door?
Close it with love.
Lock it with wisdom.
Walk away with your peace intact.
You don’t need to offer more chances to someone who already made their choice.
You are not here to beg for decency.
You are not required to be endlessly available to those who were careless with your care.
You get to protect your time, your softness, your spirit.
That’s not cruelty. That’s clarity.
That’s not revenge. That’s rebirth.
Your healing deserves boundaries.
Let the door close.
Let your peace begin.

I do not keep the door open to people who choose to mistreat me.
I am no longer accessible to those who are not accountable.
I do not shrink to keep harmful people comfortable.
I have a right to protect my peace, even when others don’t understand it.
I am not a second chance for someone who refused to choose me the first time.
I walk away from false hope and into real healing.
I honor the version of me that begged for love—and I choose her safety now.
I am not hard to love. I was just offering it to the wrong people.
I close doors gently, but I do close them.
I am allowed to heal, even if it means leaving people behind.
