When someone moves into your emotional space like it’s rent-free real estate, dumps all their unresolved childhood trauma in your living room, pisses on your peace, and calls it “being vulnerable.”

You’re not a therapist, not their mom, not a fucking Airbnb for broken people. But somehow you ended up hosting their mental meltdown with a smile.
