Selflove Stories

Some stories don't begin with love-they begin with ruin. A shattered boy who learned to survive by being pretty. A girl they all overlooked... except the one who needed her most. And the man waiting in the dark, holding the door to freedom... or something far more dangerous. This isn't a fairytale. This is a reckoning. In a place where silence was holy, he learned to flirt his way out of pain and bleed glitter to survive. But when his dove came-curious, full of softness and strength-he tasted something like hope. Freedom would always wear her face. But what happens after the break? When obsession masquerades as devotion? When pretty things turn sharp? Because he knows his love is a little too Crazy, a little too wild, too consuming. And maybe she was never meant for the kind of craving that lives in his shadow. And yet... he can't let go. Not of her. Not of the man who sees his darkest corners and doesn't flinch. Three lives. Tangled pasts. One story drenched in trauma, obsession, and a love that might just burn everything down to be born.

Maira grew up learning how to stand on her own. She kept her world small and steady focused on her studies, her responsibilities, and the quiet goals she carried in her heart.

She believed that if she worked hard enough and stayed patient enough, life would meet her halfway. But some journeys begin long before we realize we've stepped into them. After the betrayals, Maira no longer waits for answers. She lives with the echoes of it, but she also chooses: will she let the past define her, or will she give herself a second chance at a life filled with hope? Maira is a story of endurance, hope, and the quiet strength of a woman who once wished for something simple and found the courage to start again. #selflove......No.1......... 29 July 2026

It is a sharp, surgical look at the quiet execution we mistake for romance: the decision to carve away your own landscape just to purchase an hour of quiet in someone else's shadow. Stop starving yourself to feed a stone.

This is a collection about the love I accepted before I understood what I deserved. It is about the staying, the lying to myself, the slow and painful process of seeing clearly. It is not a love story. It is the story of what I had to unlearn to find one.
