Loving Before I was Healed.

from The Strpd Club · host The Strpd Club

This one’s real. And if I’m honest, it’s a truth a lot of us men carry quietly.I didn’t realize it at the time, but I was using love to heal wounds I hadn’t even named yet. Jumping into relationships hoping someone else’s love could fix what I hadn’t taken the time to face. It wasn’t intentional; it was survival. A way to avoid the silence, the reflection, and the pain.But here’s the thing: when you love before you’re healed, you bleed on people who didn’t cut you. And sometimes, the damage is done before you even realize you’re the one still hurting.This episode is a raw look at the ways men often love from a broken place and the ripple effects it creates. If you’ve ever filled your emptiness with someone else’s presence or tried to outrun pain by running into love, you’ll feel this.
