The First Love Theory — Why It Haunts Him (and You)

He says she was the one.
The one that got away.
The only one who really knew him.


But the truth?
She was just the last time he let himself
feel.
Before the shutdown.
Before the guard went up.
Before he decided that love was too dangerous to risk again.


And now you’re the one trying to reach him—
through the fog of nostalgia, the pedestal, the ghost.


Meanwhile, you’ve got your own first love wound.
Not the one you still want—
but the one that made you believe you had to earn love from that
moment on.


This week’s voice note goes into the psychology of the
first love myth,
how unprocessed grief masquerades as destiny,
and why you can’t build a future while still grieving a version
of yourself that no longer exists.


Now live.
For the women who feel like they’re competing with a memory—this
one’s for you.
