ALWAYS READY TO LEAVE

Growing up displaced taught you that no place is forever. You learned that stability is an illusion and the only thing you can count on is your ability to survive the next big move 🌪️. Your survival strategy became: always be ready to move on.

This gave you incredible resilience 💪—you became a master of adaptation, learned to pack light and live minimally, and developed the ability to rebuild your life from scratch over and over again. You can handle uncertainty and crisis better than most people, you're resourceful in ways that amaze others, and you've learned that home isn't a place—it's something you carry inside yourself ✨.

But now, even in genuine stability, your mental escape route is always ready. You have exit strategies just in case, to protect you from nasty relationship surprises and disappointments. You've become so good at being ready to leave that you've never learned how to truly arrive 🏠. Your nervous system can't believe that good things might actually last, so it keeps you perpetually prepared for the next sudden departure—even when no one is asking you to go.
