BE HER PEACE, NOT HER PRESSURE.
HER TEAMMATE, NOT HER TEST.
Don’t play games with a woman who gives her all.
Don’t disappear and expect her to chase.
Don’t punish her for being strong just because
you don’t understand her softness.
We want to be held, not handled.
Loved, not lectured.
Heard, not hushed.
Stand beside her. Hold space for her. Let her feel
seen in her silence, not just in her sparkle.
IF SHE LETS YOU IN,
DON’T MAKE HER
REGRET IT.
We’ve healed ourselves more times than anyone knows.
We’ve stayed when others walked away.
And we’ve carried more than most realise — emotionally,
mentally, even physically.
We don’t need someone to rescue us.
We need someone who makes it safe to exhale.
Because the little things? They aren’t little at all.
So if you love her — don’t play games.
Be her calm.
Be her teammate.
Be her home.
That’s how you’ll be remembered.
Share this with your love ones to let them understand your
needs more.
Real love is patient. It
doesn’t ask her to
shrink — it invites her
to breathe.
