Leo: You secretly hate women’s clothes. They’re expensive. They’re uncomfortable. And there’s never any pockets. You love being in a relationship, because you get to steal your boyfriend’s hoodies. 

You can’t date someone who only wants to be around when you’re in a good mood, who stays when you want kisses and leaves as soon as you want to talk about real life issues.

My anxiety makes me hide in my own house whenever I hear a knock at the door.

You can love someone you never dated, you can miss someone you never dated, and you can get over someone you never dated.

She has never been the kind of girl to hop from bar to bar, to party until two in the morning and wake up each day with a hangover. She needs time to recharge in between social interactions.

You are careful with your heart. You don’t hand it over to anyone who gives you a little bit of attention. You are selective about who gets to stay in your life and who gets to leave. 

You might not have used your words to tell her you were interested, but you silently said it. You said it every time you reached out to grab her hand or kiss her cheek. Every time you gave her a flirtatious compliment or turned the conversation sexual. Every time you texted her first thing in the morning or before she fell asleep at night.

Alpha girls pick their person by looking beneath the surface. By seeing how a boy treats them, by seeing what his values are, by seeing the way he handles himself in tough situations.

It’s better to give yourself the love you need than to give your whole heart to someone who will only meet you halfway. 

He shouldn’t run away when you ask him to meet your parents or to be your plus one for a wedding or to put an official label on your relationship. 

It’s obvious that there’s something between us.

I want to spend the rest of my life with my best friend. 

When you have a free weekend, your first instinct isn’t to text everyone on your contact list to see who will come over.

Scorpio: Your standards are too low. You don’t believe you deserve love. So you settle for people that are below you. 

If he liked you, then he would be thrilled to see your name pop up on his phone. He would be thrilled to know that you were thinking about him. 

You don’t have to put on a mask and pretend like you couldn’t care less about him. You can be honest. You can be authentic.

“I was working at a gas station at like 3 AM one night. A car pulled in to the pump, guy got out and started pumping, and then the car and dude just… vanished. I was looking right at it, and it just popped out of existence.”

“This guy was very high, tried to rob a house of a military vet. Got shot.”
