“No me doy a cualquiera ni le brindo amistad a quien lo quiera solo a quien yo decido. Pueden llamarme arrogante, pretenciosa a la hora de elegir quien entra a mi vida, pero este es mi mundo y debo de cuidar que no entren personas nefastas en él.
No le temo a la soledad de mi cuarto, a un domingo a solas, a no tener un hombro en el cual llorar. Al final me gusta lamer mis heridas solas porque a mí nadie me verá derrotada.
Soy como una edición limitada que no todos tienen la fortuna de tener, soy de un círculo diminuto en cantidad de amigos, pero de calidad solo los mejores.
No confundan mi manera de no regalarme con arrogancia solo porque muchos se permiten aguantar malas personas por no saber estar solas. Yo me quiero y por eso prefiero estar muchas veces sola que mal acompañada”.
From my personal experience, learning to prioritize quality friendships over a large quantity has transformed my life in incredible ways. It’s tempting to want to be surrounded by many people, but often, the true value lies in those few who truly understand and support you. I’ve found that being selective about who enters your life is not arrogance, but self-respect and protection of your own well-being. There was a time when I feared being alone, especially on quiet weekends or during challenging moments when I didn’t have someone to lean on. Yet, embracing solitude allowed me to heal deeply and cultivate resilience. The phrase "I like to lick my wounds alone because no one will see me defeated" resonates strongly with me because it captures the empowerment that comes from self-healing and independence. Having a limited circle of friends doesn’t mean loneliness—it means cherishing those connections that bring real joy and support. It reminded me that a small, quality circle is a treasure, especially when people understand boundaries and respect each other’s light and darkness. For those who fear solitude and stay in toxic relationships just to avoid loneliness, I encourage embracing the strength in being alone sometimes. It’s an act of self-love, not selfishness. True companionship comes when you’re whole and confident in who you are, not when you settle because of fear. I’ve learned to stand firm, choosing myself first, and that has brought the most meaningful, lasting friendships into my life.
