Quote from BTB:
"A huge sign ure not in a safe relationship:

If it feels like a secret,

it's probably a warning ⚠ - and by that i mean,

if u have to hide ur partner's behaviour from ur friends & ur family,
it's probably bc u alrdy know that somethings wrong in the relationship.

if u find urself leavin out certain details,

when u tell ur family & friends abt ur relationship,
u'know - mbe u say things like "theyre just stressed" or
"it was a 1 time thing", or
"u just dont know them like i do"

mbe u stop tellin them how bad the fights rly r
mbe u skip over the part where they made u cry (again)
mbe uve started defending them,b4 anybdy even asks

but ask urself this:
'If nothing's wrong,Why are we editing the story?' 🤔

Bc when u're in something healthy,

u don't need 2 hide anything,
u don't need 2 hide details,
u don't have 2 brace urself 4 judgement
or lie 2 protect somebody who keeps hurtin u.

& if the ppl who love u would b concerned if they knew the full truth...
that is a red flag ⛳ thats ur gut telling u that somethin is not right

pause ⏸ & ask urself:
"Why r u protecting their image,at the expense of ur peace?"

U shouldn't have 2 spin the story,2 make it sound safe
if u feel like u have 2 hide the truth,...
That IS the truth.
& u deserve a relationship that doesnt need covering up."
