			<title>An insecure and damaged mind</title>
			<description>This is tiring. How do you know? That she isnt cheating? She even said once she might as well, you keep asking her. What if she's meeting someone at lunch? Having small dates and not telling you? What if she's deleting texts she's sending at work? Maybe messaging others and knowing its wrong, but do..</description>

You will have to remind yourself your worth, grow your confidence, your strength, your desire to keep going. You will also have to deal with anyone in your life growin..</description>

			<title>Alone</title>
			<description>The longer I'm in a relationship the more I learn I might not be cut out for this. I have a million and one insecurities, I cannot calm my mind for anything, and all I do is stress my partner out. Bad enough my partner has hurt me themselves, but add that to my paranoia and its chaos. I cant tru..</description>

			<description>	Everyday is another day that I'm able to overcome my fears and insecurities. From the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep, I am in a battle with my subconscious to prove that I can trust and love like a normal person. Every day my fiancee gives me access to her phone and social media accou..</description>

			<description>I wake up and I realize I have another day of life. I have the opportunity to make the necessary changes to become a better person. The potential can be endless depending on how I view the world. However, the world isn't as optimistic or forgiving. I am reminded my f**k ups, my let downs, my shortco..</description>

			<title>Day 6</title>
			<description>Yesterday had a few bumps. But nothing we couldn&amp;rsquo;t overcome. Her best friend came with us to an event. She was with him and at no point was I insecure or jealous. To the point I started to think, &amp;ldquo;she&amp;rsquo;s been with me all week, she barely sees this person.&amp;rdquo; So when she came up ..</description>

			<title>Day 5</title>
			<description>Yesterday was amazing. No insecurities, no stupidity, no questions. I&amp;rsquo;ve been able to keep it together. I still have moments every so often. When I hear them planning things and they cuddle up, in scared it&amp;rsquo;s because names they don&amp;rsquo;t want me hearing will be mentioned. But that&amp;rsqu..</description>

			<title>Day 4</title>
			<description>Yesterday went well. I messed up and asked one question earlier one and didn&amp;rsquo;t mess up again. However, I asked one more question that had nothing to do with insecurity and I received an extremely stern response. If it looks as if the question can be seen as coming from insecurity, then that&amp;rs..</description>

			<title>day 1</title>
			<description>	I have come to an intersection of life that i am all too familiar with at this point. Another relationship slowly failing because of my crippling paranoia. The fear of being hurt by someone i love entirely is causing me to push away the very person i want to spend the rest of my life with. This is ..</description>
