bad advice saturday ×

trust them again.

nothing's changed.

trust after a breach isn't a feeling.

it's a decision that requires evidence.

not an apology.

not a promise.

not the warmth they bring back

when they sense you pulling away.

evidence.

behavior that holds

across time, pressure,

and moments when no one is watching.

if nothing changed,

you're not extending new trust.

you're handing the same trust

back to the same hands that dropped it.
