Loving When It Gets Complicated

I talked with my cuz yesterday about a very complex relationship I have with a friend.  It's been an up and down kind of thin for the last three years, emotions running high and sideways, Love growing and changing, reshaping and stretching me more than I thought possible when everything began.

I said I would be there for them, and I'm beginning to question if that's a healthy realistic possibility. I have a strong sense of duty and commitment when I say I'm going to do something, but I'm wondering when is it time to quit? Esp when my mental and emotional health have been ravaged during the course of this relationship.

I'm wondering how to communicate my changing and growing needs with this person, or if my silence will speak for itself...?

Can I challenge myself to give space for my Heart to Heal and Process some of the toxicity that's been growing between us, or do I take the risk of my mental and emotional health to talk it out yet again? Is it worth it when we talk and talk and talk without really saying anything?
