Hey y’all, it’s Ashley — Your Southern Lesbian.
This week, we’re talking about that sneaky little habit called overgiving — you know, when you pour all your love, energy, and time into someone and forget to keep a little for yourself. Whether you’re dating, healing, or trying to slow things down with your next Broomhilda, this episode is about building healthy, balanced relationships that start with you.
We’ll talk about:
💔 Why “loving harder” isn’t the same as being loved back
💸 The real energy behind paying for dinner — and why you don’t owe her anything
🧘♀️ How to set energetic boundaries (without feeling cold)
🪞 What it really means to respect yourself in love and dating
🧱 And how to stop confusing history with loyalty
If you’ve ever lost yourself trying to make someone else happy, this one’s for you.
