The Will to Resist

🕯️ Third Eye Baptism: Why We Struggle to Love Right (and How We Try Anyway)

Some of us don’t chase love like a fairy tale.

We try to open eyes. Third eyes.

We drop compliments not just to flirt, but to wake something up.

To say: “You’re seen. Not just wanted. Seen.”

It’s awkward sometimes. Clumsy.

We miss the mark. We say too much. We say too little. We overthink, underdeliver, and then circle back with late-night confessions and cringy memes.

But we try.

That’s what makes it real.

💡 Why do people fumble in love?

Because half of us are still trying to figure out if we’re even worthy of it. And the other half? They’ve been lied to so many times, they don’t know what truth looks like when it finally knocks.

So when someone does show up—whether soft-spoken or full gremlin mode—it feels suspicious.

We second-guess affection. We treat compliments like bait. And worst of all… we forget to believe we deserve to be loved out loud.

🧠 Third Eye Love Isn’t Smooth. It’s Sincere.

We say wild things like: “I’m blessed by your beautiful lips every morning that I want to kiss it daily.”

And we mean every syllable.

Not to win points. But to remind you that someone still believes in magic. Even in a world that wants us numb.

🙏 If you're still learning how to love, that’s okay.

You don’t need a script. Just show up. Try. Stumble. Laugh when it’s awkward. Apologize when needed. And praise whoever you believe in for the fact you still care enough to try.

Because the real flex?

Trying anyway.

Even when you weren’t raised to. Even when you’ve been burned. Even when they told you people like you weren’t meant to be loved fully.

You are.

And you will be.

One third eye at a time.
