Get Out Of That Toxic Relationship, Right Now

Being in a relationship can be the best and yet the worst thing. I asked myself these simple questions: Am I happy? Are we both putting in the same amount of effort? Am I a priority? I answered them all no. I knew it was over and I had to get out.

I was so tired of being sad all the time. I would cry myself to sleep night after night because I knew deep down I deserved better but never knew if I would ever get that. I was willing to be sad and just continue on.

I then knew that I was putting in so much more time and effort into something I was getting nothing out of. I would Snapchat and text frequently. He would respond but it would take so long. I tried to facetime and call him all the time. He would rarely ever answer and when he did he it lasted like two minutes. I always asked to do things together and was always told no or some other time.

I realized I was no longer a priority. I was now at the bottom of the importance list. I need to be shown I'm important and I matter. I could tell that I no longer was and that was the biggest wake-up call for me.

After looking into all of that I knew it was time to get out. If I didn't do it now it was going to get worse. I got out and didn't look back. It was hard to see someone's heartbreak but in the end, I'm happy. This is the one time in my life I will be selfish. I have to be happy or it will never work out.

It is never too late!

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing!
