I’ll never be satisfied with mediocrity when it comes to love.

I’ll Never Be Satisfied With Mediocre Love

I don’t want someone who is not excited about love anymore because of how many times they’ve been broken or because they’ve done it all before. I want someone who is still hopeful, someone who is still excited about the little things, someone who still giggles at the thought of us being together.

I want someone who understands that true love heals not hurts. That love is not a game of numbers and caring too much is not an invitation to take someone’s heart for granted.

I don’t want someone who uses people as rebounds or treats love as a game of how many more hearts they can break. I don’t want someone who takes feelings lightly or wants a shallow and superficial love. I don’t want someone who thinks emotions are dramatic or wanting more is neediness.

I don’t want someone who doesn’t understand commitment. I don’t want someone selfish with their heart.

I’ll never be satisfied with a heart that’s not all mine.

I’ll never be satisfied with someone who is not invested.

I’ll never be satisfied with someone who is not all in.

Because trust me I’ve tried being with these kinds of people but at the end of the day, I felt empty. My heart wouldn’t let me accept the bits and pieces. My heart wasn’t happy with breadcrumbs. My heart has waited long enough for the real deal and it won’t accept anything less than that.

I’ll never be satisfied with temporary.

I’ll never be satisfied with sometimes.

I’ll never be satisfied with maybes.

My heart has been a fool so many times, but there’s one thing it gets right every single time. It always shuts off and warns me when it’s time to leave if I’m not properly loved. Always.
