So what you didn’t get what you want, so what you cared a little more than you should, so what you didn’t know any better….so what?!

You say you’re single but you know that your heart is taken and you have a feeling that it’s only a matter of time before you two end up together.

Like the friends who love you unconditionally and would do anything to see you smile. Like the way they hug you when you’re down and how they love the messy parts of you.

But when we try to avoid pain, we sometimes avoid pleasure. When we try to avoid pain, we avoid taking risks that could change our lives, when we try to avoid pain, we avoid loving and being loved in return.

I know that I will not have to question your love for me because I’d be so sure of it, because you will be everything they were not. I know that you will make up for all the years I was heartbroken and all the times I was mistreated.

I’m done living in this illusion I’ve created with you and I’m ready to face my reality without you.

The best kind of apology is when you try to change your behavior from hurting someone to loving them

It’s one of those days when your strength becomes a liability rather than an asset. It’s one of those days when you question how long you will have to count on your strength without having someone else to lean on or how much longer you can really make it on your own.
