Fighting with Ghosts

When you are in a relationship with a person who is dealing with their last relationship and the damage that was done. The important thing to remember is it takes time for that person to work through how and why it didn't work. If they wanted to be with that person, they would...it's just part of the process. It's significantly tougher if the ex treated them badly, because they can't understand why. They spend too much time looking in the past and not enough time looking in the present and the future. They are closed off to you because the wound is still fresh. This can cause insecurity, frustration, helplessness, loneliness and sometimes even anger. How strong are you? Are you strong enough and skilled enough to fight with ghosts?

Dragonfly has been struggling since she broke up with the spider. He was manipulative, used her for sex and didn't really care about her life. But he manipulated her and pleased her physically, so she can't let it go. She can't see the sunshine around her, the love of the those here to protect her and show her the joy in each and every day. It would be easier if he were standing here in front of me instead of just living in her memory...it's like fighting with ghosts.

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”

Cheeks 

An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)

"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".

A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.
