Quick question, fam… how many of you have put up with bad behaviors from your SO and waited them to change?

Oh, everybody? Cool. Then this Twitter thread is for you.

Twitter user @awkward_duck (Cherrell Brown) shared a heartbreaking tale of how a friend of hers (a guy) kept screwing up and not taking his relationship seriously. Result: relationship lost.

The set up…

2 years?!?

You never have anybody “on hold”

She told you bro!

Well, it worked for Offset and Cardi B, so…

Gotta let it go, bro…

Gotta fix yourself first…

Wait… 7 years?!

Don’t do the math. Just don’t.

Look in the mirror bro

You blew it

She is fixing to get married. What do you not understand about that?

Being a friend means tough love sometimes…

Naturally, so many could relate and shared their own experiences…

TBH, last minute saves are insulting…

Please be with me so I can take advantage…

Take care of yourself first

This.

So many don’t even know this about themselves!

Yep.

After 67K+ retweets and 165k+ likes, Brown tweeted her appreciation for people picking up her words and sharing them with the world. She also gave us all some advice we could use right now:

The more you can work on you and feel better about who YOU are, the more you’ll be ready to meet that person who fits with the happiest (or happier) version of you.

Truth!
