The one thing you should never have to do in a relationship is remind or convince the person you love how incredible you actually are — ever. It isn’t something he or she should be convinced of because it isn’t something you can convince someone of. I understand the urge to do so, the urge to somehow convince someone to hang on, to fight for you, fight for the love you know you still share, fight for the future you know you can build — but it isn’t going to work. The only thing you can do is live your life, be your own person, do your own thing and hope they realize how amazing you truly are. It’s not even reminding them how incredible you are but simply being incredible and hoping they take notice. Trying to remind someone of how amazing an individual you are is somewhat futile. People change every single day. All that’s relevant is the person you are now, the person he or she is now, how well you treat each other today and how much you’re willing to do for each other tomorrow. Sometimes lovers drift apart. Sometimes they tear themselves apart. Sometimes, after years and years of soul searching, we arrive at the conclusion that the one we lost is the one we need most. Regardless of your situation, why things are as difficult as they are, you really only have one good option: to be incredible. Be the lover, partner, man, woman he or she wants and deserves. Be the person you know you, yourself, want to be. Words: Paul Hudson 📷 from We Heart It #beincredible #loveyourself #improveyourself #love #wordsofwisdom #igquotes #yesnomaybe #likeforlike
