Sometimes, love is all a couple has. And when that happens, there is not a lot they can do anymore. Love alone is not going to keep those two people together. Love alone is something, but it’s not everything.

I don’t care about whether or not he tags me in his “WCW” Instagram post. I don’t care if he professes his love to me on Twitter or Facebook. Truth be told, that means nothing to me. I care about things happening in real time to real people. And I want to find someone who wants that too.

A sex dream about an ex you haven’t seen in years: This usually means that we are craving more intimacy and close contact with people in our lives. However, if you keep having this dream with the same ex, you most definitely want to sleep with them.

Letting go of someone you care about will never be easy. It will be heartbreaking no matter what. It’s not going to suddenly make your world brighter. And I’m afraid, your world might grow dimmer without them for a while.

Everyone is on their own path. Everyone is going to have their own journey to get where they want to go. So, don’t let a number define you. Don’t ever let a number make you feel inadequate.

I hope you miss the way we walked and held your hand. I hope you miss the way we kissed you, because we trusted your lips on ours. I hope you miss the best thing you ever had. And I hope you regret what you did.

You never expect people to let you down when you feel strongly about them. You never expect yourself to fall for someone who has the audacity to do that to you. But sometimes, people blindside you. People change their minds in a day. People walk out. People leave.

“Honestly? I don’t know. I guess I had low self esteem. I wanted to feel needed. I wanted to feel sexy. But, damn. I messed up a wonderful and beautiful relationship. And I hate myself for that.”
