you deserve people who listen to you ramble. you deserve people who love it when you’re excited, when you’re happy. you deserve people who check up on you and wish to see you well. you deserve the kindness you give to everybody else.

i just want to say you deserve good things. you deserve to feel worthy of existing. and i hope that you’ll believe that one day if it’s hard to believe now. and i’m so sorry that you had to go through life having people who made you feel like you’re not worth anything when you’re never a burden. i may not know your story, your pain, what’s on your mind and what you bring to the table, but you never did have to bring anything. you just had to bring yourself and that’s enough. you’re enough.

You’ll think you found someone great because he texts you that he misses you when he’s alone in bed at night until you meet someone who texts you that he misses you in the middle of the day when he’s surrounded by people. Then you’ll realize that sometimes you don’t know what’s actually great until you find better.

I remind myself every day to be kinder to myself.

There’s a difference between being perfectly fine with someone and being the absolute happiest you can be. And that difference lies somewhere among how they talk to you when you’re with other people and how they kiss you when you’re alone.

“I hope you find yourself out there. I hope you figure out your heart. I hope you figure out your mind. I hope you learn how to be kind to yourself. How to embrace the journey you are on. I hope you learn to be proud of the person you are becoming. I hope you learn to be proud of where you are - even if it isn’t exactly where you want to be.”

Let me just tell you- if you have to wonder whether or not he’s going to text you back, he’s not the one for you. If he doesn’t want to have a conversation with you when he knows you can’t meet up with him, he’s also not the one. If he can’t hang out with you because he has friends in town, he’s not the one. Because the one will want to introduce you to his friends. The one will text you during the first 2 minutes of down time he has during a crazy day at work. The one will text you goodnight even if he knows you’re already asleep. And the one- the real one for you- won’t ever leave you wondering if he actually cares.

Don’t live for the weekends. Don’t write off things you’re unsure of. Don’t mistake comfort for love. Don’t mistake attention for love. And most importantly, don’t believe anyone who says they don’t have time to see you, because there’s no such thing as being too busy for something you care about.

“What a terrible feeling to love someone and not be able to help them.”

— Jennifer Niven, All The Bright Places

“It had to be real, at least that’s what you’ll tell yourself. You’ll justify it to yourself, and to anyone who will listen because Jesus Christ, he wouldn’t have said all those things to you if he didn’t mean them. Right? You’ll go over it a million times while you’re laying in bed and staring at your ceiling because sleeping gets harder when you only dream about one thing. You’ll go over every single I love you, I miss you, I’m yours, baby, and it’ll run through your head like a train stuck on the same track. You’ll go over every single I love you and think, he meant it he meant it he meant it, there’s no way he didn’t mean it. Right? But the months string along and he’s still gone and you’ll start to question yourself because why would he say all those things if he never planned on staying? And you’ll think about every promise he broke and all those things he used to tell you and you’ll wonder how you could’ve ever believed a single word of it. But you loved him, oh god, you loved him so much that if you could hear your heart you know it would only beat to the sound of his name. And if you love somebody that much, if you give your heart to somebody with that much trust, he had to have loved you back. Right?”

Most definitely not right

“I really want to believe that one day I’ll meet someone and have no doubts that I’m supposed to be with him for the rest of my life and that he’d never hurt me and that I can completely be myself around him. But until then I’ll keep texting boys I’m already over and getting drunk with boys I’m not sure about and learning lessons that I really need to learn.”

Sometimes the people we love don’t treat us as well as the people who love us.
