He tells you he doesn’t need this drama in his life, that you’re too controlling and demanding. Translation: He wants things his way. As soon as you challenge him, he will flip things on you. He will say you’re “too much” and “crazy,” and you’re just too jealous and need to work on yourself.
New light doesn’t get in unless we’re a little shaken up and broken and only then are we ready to truly transform our lives.
When they're around, you don't need alcohol, or money, or anything. This weird connection is more satisfying than anything else.
No matter how complicated life will get, I will always love you.
The problem is not that they don’t know what being faithful means. The problem is that they aren’t sure about you.
You are amazing, you hold the power, and the real problem is that you don’t feel it. The moment you feel it, you will stop going back to him.

Wait for the guy who knows that love isn’t shiny and perfect.

You don’t see all the ways you hurt her, because you don’t realize you’re the root of the problem.
So instead she’ll put up that protection, her armor: the I don’t care demeanor. The “I don’t need you and I never needed you.”
Wait for the friend who’s imperfect, because there’s no fun in perfection, but who never stops trying - texts checking in after your date, buying you a drink just because, never forgetting what you love, what you can’t stand, what moves you.
A toast to you for not settling, when it would be so easy to.
But I also know they seem to only make you a priority when they know they’re about to lose you. I also know that you only seem to feel safe in their arms but when you’re apart you get anxious and restless and unsatisfied.

If you want easy, if you want normal, if you don’t want to put in effort, you’re dating the wrong girl.
Before you know it, it’s destroying you. It’s so hard to process. There’s something about your connection that takes you to a place where no one else can.
Maybe they’re so afraid of getting close that they’ll push you away before you get the chance to leave yourself.
They do this to control you, because they know how amazing you are, because they know that you could have anyone and be happy without them.
The truth is, everyone can look into their past and blame something or someone for the way they are or the way their life turned out. But this will not make your life better. This will not facilitate change.
It’s like one moment she’s extroverted, the next introverted - you can’t ever seem to figure her out.

Your path may be more challenging, but it is also so much more compelling.
You never have to feel that you deserve feeling so conflicted. You never have to feel that love has to be this way.
While they can rule the world with their passion, they need to have patience, too.
If you say you love her, never take her love for granted. Never think you have her, even though her heart is yours.
You feel naked and vulnerable and you don’t know what to do next. You’re thinking, this is why I’m so stingy with trust. This is why I have so many walls.
There’s a lot of layers to you, and at times you struggle with knowing what to do with them. You’re untamed and raw - but also reserved.
She doesn’t need you to say I like you or I love you because you feel like that’s what she wants to hear. She doesn’t need you to do things because it’s the “right thing to do.”
The person who we fall in love with has the full power to destroy us - and sometimes they do.
If we were still us, I’d still feel like a little kid. I’d still wake believing true love conquers all.
The truth about starting over is that it is the best thing you will ever do. But it will also be the hardest thing.
But like every other time before, your blissful reverie quickly turns sour, things turn dark so fast that you don’t even have time to think, only to feel how hurt you are.
It’s so easy to get caught up in your own head and believe you’re behind where you’re supposed to be for your age or that a single mistake is the end of the world.
Don't let this love get discarded for the next hit because you’re mad, too stubborn or can’t let go of something in the past.
And maybe, just maybe, you not being there, was the biggest blessing in disguise.
And you’ve gotten so close to moving on, but for some reason, something is always off...
Be with someone who would never risk losing you.
No, dating you was not the end of their liberty; it was the beginning of it. But this is not what they’ll tell people. This is not what they’ll tell themselves.

When your light shined on me, it was everything. But when it was shining somewhere else, it was so cold.
What you don’t understand is nothing that’s worthwhile is ever easy.
You loved your ex more than you have ever loved anyone - but falling in love with someone should never result in falling out of love with yourself.
Love doesn’t know religion or geography, time or age. It doesn’t care about whether it’s convenient for you, or whether the person is even compatible with you.
You deserve someone who will never make you feel like you have to compete.
When they finally start to feel safe with you, they question it.
You and your best leave the club in search of food. You’re an actual gorilla in heat looking savage AF.
But the bottom line is, I don’t care what the reason was. I’m done hearing your excuses.

Commitment exists. Love exists. And it isn’t ‘Netflix and Chill’ touching. It isn’t an ‘Almost Relationship.’
Sometimes I try to “figure out” whether or not something is right before I actually try to do it. Sometimes I don’t think, I just do.
Your heart doesn’t care about how many people you meet, how beautiful they are, or how amazing.
It’s not going to be easy. But when you will gain their trust and love, it will be everything.
You get irrationally jealous when your friend comes over and your beloved pet shows them more attention.
If someone breaks your heart, it’s like an old wound being ripped open again, the pain is unbearable, it bleeds from deeper within.
No one knows what they're doing -We're just too afraid to admit it.
I will not marry anyone that makes me feel like I’m this obligation, like our marriage is an obligation.
