Awareness/disclaimer:
This is not love.

When someone uses guilt to make you stay...
When your "I love you" feels more like an apology...
When you are responsible for their happiness, their stability, their survival-
That is not love.
That is emotional manipulation.

Love should feel safe.
It should not make you question your worth, your freedom, or your sanity.
If someone makes you feel guilty for setting boundaries,
If they use their pain to control your choices-
That is toxic.

You are not responsible for fixing someone who breaks you in the process.

Love is not a cage.
Love is not control.
Love is not fear.

You deserve better.
You deserve peace.

Not My Fault by Flowingin1Direction
28 parts Ongoing Mature
💔 Not My Fault - The Story of a Girl Who Forgot How to Breathe Serene doesn't speak unless spoken to. She says sorry before she says hello. She writes to someone she's never met - because that's the only place she feels safe. Home was never home. Love never looked like love. And survival meant disappearing, even in plain sight. But then, someone notices. He sees the flinches. The forced smiles. The fear in her breath. And for the first time in her life, someone doesn't look away. This isn't about a girl who falls in love. It's about a girl who finally learns she's not to blame. Not for the bruises. Not for the silence. Not for the hurt she never asked for. It's not her fault. Maybe... it was never her fault at all. A raw, soul-baring journey through abuse, healing, and the quiet kind of love that doesn't fix you - but sits beside you while you do.

Shattering Her Illusion - EXCERPT by MackenzieMadden
8 parts Complete Mature
A revised and edited version of this story will be coming to Amazon/KU in February 2026. He was silent. A lifetime of poisonous words faded away when he came into my life, convincing me every single insidious whisper had been a lie. He gave me a glimpse into a world where I could be happy, creating a family of my own-one based on unconditional love and zero expectations. Except maybe one. When the moment comes for him to speak up and defend me, he doesn't say a word, and reality comes crashing down on my head. He's not the man I thought he was, but I'm not the same girl he fell in love with, either. I'm stronger now, and I know I deserve better, so when I walk away, he'll be the one left picking up the pieces. There is no cheating, just a TSTL Hero who should've known better.
But, he never hit me. by Emilyveraaa
36 parts Complete Mature
He never hit me. Just threw things. Shoved me. Grabbed me hard enough to leave bruises. But he didn't hit me. So I told myself I was safe. Layla thought she found love in Zayd-a man who made her feel seen for the first time. What began with midnight conversations and forehead kisses slowly spiraled into something darker. Something that took her voice, her confidence, her sense of reality. He never punched her. He never slapped her. So how could it be abuse? In her eyes, bruises weren't proof. Silence was survival. And love? Love was pain wrapped in apologies. But, He Never Hit Me is a raw, intimate descent into the kind that doesn't leave bruises on your face - but breaks you from the inside out. For anyone who's ever convinced themselves it wasn't "that bad"... this is your story.

MAD LOVE by julia_dia
40 parts Complete Mature
Have you ever encountered mad love? No, not the kind with butterflies in your belly and a sweet thrill, or even the relationship between two loving hearts. This love is different - it's a poison, it destroys life. What should you do if the past does not let go? Where can you hide from feelings bordering on mental illness? How do you escape a man who has become your shadow? No way... It's impossible to escape. It's impossible to hide. Living with it is unbearable. "You won't be happy with anyone, I won't allow it..."
