Your time is too valuable for you to waste it being miserable.

That is the most important thing to remember – you will be okay again, without him.

You can’t force love, you can’t force relationships and you can’t force people to like you. If someone doesn’t appreciate you for who you are then they aren’t the right person for you anyway.

Be single! Spend time alone, get to know yourself, become confident in your own skin, take care of yourself for once and kick ass in your own life.

We use people that we think can help get us ahead. We become self-obsessed monsters and we don’t care who we hurt in the way as long as we’re satisfied.

Instead of acknowledging you’re the reason you’re stuck you blame other people.

You are only in your 20s once. You will never, ever get this time back. One day someone will wake up at their dead-end job still doing errands for their boss and realize “I wasted my life” – don’t be that guy.

I convince myself that I can suffer through discomfort just to make someone else a little more comfortable.

You don’t need someone to complete you, you don’t need someone to heal your heart, you don’t need someone to make your world turn because you can make your own world turn.

You hurt him in the process because you’re only worrying about yourself. You don’t care if you lead him on or break his heart as long as yours isn’t breaking, and that’s the problem.

We have to pull it together even when we want to break down. We have to smile even when we’re on the verge of tears. We have to act like everything is okay even when it isn’t.

My biggest fault is that I always see the best in people; I think I can change them and save them, even when they don’t need to be saved. I think I can be the one to unlock their heart but I can’t – there’s nothing special about me.
