Everything I Wish I Could Say...

All I think about is you 

There comes a point when you will ask yourself “why didn’t he care about me enough to stay? To fight for us?” But the real question you have to ask yourself is “did he ever care enough about ME - an individual, a human being who he told he loved - enough to miss me now that I’m gone?” Be honest with yourself. If you think to yourself “well, maybe he did” the answer is no, he didn’t. Don’t torture yourself. Give yourself the closure he never offered. Take this as a lesson: if they won’t miss you when you’re gone, they don’t deserve your love

One of the hardest pills to swallow: this world is cruel, and full of selfish individuals. There will be a time when someone will use you; for your kindness, company, and heart. They will see you as an easy conquest. Make them remember you, not as the fragile, easily manipulated, foolish girl, but as the one who they wish they would’ve respected more.

-Ruth B.

Have the courage to walk away when you no longer feel loved.

Know the difference between “lust” and “love”. When a man has lust for you, it doesn’t necessarily mean he loves you. He loves the physical attributes of your body and what those attributes do to give him pleasure. But when a man has love for you, true and deep love, he admires your soul and all the characteristics that make you, you. He will cherish the secrets you open up to him about, comfort you at your worst, and give you reassurance without you having to question it. He will protect you; your body, your mind, and of all, your heart. Wait for the guy who loves you, not the one who only lusts you.
