Singer Tems has shared her perspective on t+xic relationships, noting that many people have experienced a kind of love with partners who are unaware of their own t+xic behavior.
“I feel like everyone has experienced that t+xic love with someone that doesn’t even know that they’re toxic,” she said, explaining that some individuals may genuinely believe they are expressing love without fully understanding the emotional impact of their actions.
She added, “They say I love you, I love you, but they don’t know that they don’t even love you because you can’t love someone if you don’t love yourself,” emphasizing her belief that self-love is essential before a person can truly love another.
According to the singer, what is often mistaken for love can sometimes be emotional dependence. “I feel like it’s more like they need you or something about you makes them feel a way about themselves,” she explained, describing such emotions as temporary rather than genuine love.
Highlighting her understanding of real affection, Tems stated, “Love is not a fleeting feeling,” stressing that true love is permanent and should not be confused with temporary emotional highs.
She concluded by noting that recognizing t+xicity can lead to honest communication and reflection, adding that sometimes the right step is to “actually speak to them and see how they’re doing.”
