text: Its natural to look at a certain toxic relationship and feel regret. What you need to remember is these people are brought into your life for a reason and a lesson. They teach you how to love yourself, what you are willing to put up with, and what you can compromise on. They also teach you how to spot red flags and familiar toxic behavior, so you don’t make the same mistake. Look at these relationships as lessons, and you’ll learn to value your intuition. You’ll learn how to show people how you want to be treated, how to love you, and how you respect you. The key is to learn from the lesson, so there won’t be a next time.
