We call it loyalty when someone stays despite being unhappy, but maybe staying isn’t always a sign of commitment. Sometimes leaving a relationship can be more honest than spending years pretending everything is fine.

Maybe commitment was never supposed to mean losing yourself.
People are quick to shame someone for being different, but rarely question why everyone is expected to be the same.
Maybe fitting in was never proof of being right.
