You don’t want to settle for someone who doesn’t fit you, someone who doesn’t respect you, someone who doesn’t deserve you, simply because you are worried about being alone instead. 

“

You might feel like you’re alone because everyone else looks like they have their lives together. Because everyone else seems to be moving at a healthy pace and hitting all the right milestones. Because it seems like you’re the only one struggling this hard, feeling this confused, feeling this numb.

“

You feel lonely. Every day and night. Then you feel ashamed because it makes you sound ungrateful.

“

You’re overestimating your heartache. You’re assuming you’re never going to fall in love again. You’re assuming you missed your chance at a happily ever after. You’re assuming nothing like this is ever going to happen again.

“

You’ve lost touch with people from high school and haven’t made any new friends since then.

“

To the girl who is feeling lonely: Forgive yourself. Have compassion for yourself. Love yourself.

“

Get lost.

“

It feels like there are so many more things I should have experienced by now, so many more adventures I could have taken, so many more memories I could have made.

“

ARIES – You get a new tattoo, get a new piercing, or dye your hair a different color. You try to change yourself into a different person, one you like better.

“

When you feel like the odd one out…the ugly duckling…the weirdo…remember that you are one of a kind and this world needs you.
