“You deserve better. If you‘ve been looking for a sign, here it is. How long have you been holding up? How many times have you sworn this was the last time, how many times did you say you were not going to shed one more tear over that one certain person that grabbed your heart and twisted it in your chest, and how many nights have you cried yourself to sleep since then? How many times have you started over, giving people chances they did not take? How often did you cross oceans for those who would watch you drown? If it were another person making all the same mistakes again, you’d be the one saying “I told you so”. Don’t be that person that settles for less than they deserve because it’s what they’ve known all their life. Don’t make excuses for someone else’s toxic behaviour. Don’t chase after someone who’d leave you alone in a heartbeat. Be here and be you. You matter, just the way you are. And you deserve so, so much better.”
