relationships
hello again
i want to keep this short, so it'll be a very brief explanation but basically i have romantic feelings about my friend and they have them back. they know about my severe depression and selfharm but they still acted on these feelings. i'm just so scared, i made a promise to myself years ago that i won't be getting into relationships unless i better myself but i care about them so much and i want to give them all my support, but i just don't know how to live with a person without being an awful burden to them. i've been so overwhelmed by everything, i just don't know what to do anymore. there's nothing i fear more than hurting those i love.
my therapist told be there might not be a definite moment when i feel like i've bettered myself enough and that if i'll feel ready for commitment i should just go for it but i feel like it's just not that simple, i don't know
im sorry for wasting your time, i hope you're all doing well

Life is funny that way .... people often can not plan on meeting someone or other life events going to the "right" time ... as there is no right time... maybe you can use the relationship to spur you into growth and healing... as inspiration.
