I’m a lover girl I want to drown in love

"Of course I'll hurt you. Of course you'll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence..."

- Antoine de Saint Exupéry, The Little Prince (via books-n-quotes)

unless you’re adding to my life and making a positive change, I don’t see a reason for us to be connected

Present yourself how you wanna be treated.

You set the tone.

You set the vibe.

You make the rules.

You teach people how to treat you.

Save the “casual-ness” for those worthy of it.

Don’t just “let things slide” because you’re “doing someone a favor”

No. There are NO FAVORS when it comes to your worth.

If they’re late- they don’t get another chance unless they make it up.

If they’re making excuses- excuse yourself out of the equation.

If you have a certain love language that they are not willing to love you in - why compromise?

If you are being “bread crumbed” follow that trail back HOME.

You literally hold your standard in your hands.

Do not allow or let someone change or shift what you already know to be TRUE, PRESENT and VALUABLE in your life.

Even the small things. The little things.

You deserve all of that and you need to make sure that someone who is pursuing you understands that boundaries and standards are not just ways to protect yourself but a FINE LINE and the ONLY way to your heart, your space, your mind, your time and your life.

Stop settling for mediocre. Stop giving away free passes. Stop allowing yourself to be taken for granted.

People know exactly how to treat you bc YOU TEACH THEM.

How?

BY LOVING YOURSELF FIRST and allowing someone to see how you do and then proceed to follow.

So love yourself OUT LOUD, how you want to be loved and then love others the same way.

Don’t let some manipulative or narcissistic person come into your life changing things around.

This is YOUR LIFE. You hold the standards. You are the prize.

you truly do not exist for other ppl’s consumption and your existence is not hinged on making others happy and comfortable by stifling and hiding and crushing and editing parts of yourself to be less than who you really are

[bestyouuniveristy]

If someone is doing better than you, good for them. But their success has nothing to do with your own and you shouldn’t compare your journey to theirs. You are running your own race and if they’re running faster than you, then they probably have less obstacles in their way than you do in this season of your life. Or maybe life has you going slower because their are very important lessons you need to grasp right now and need extended time to learn them. Whatever the case may be, you are doing your own thing. You cannot compare yourself to anyone.

“Someone can be madly in love with you and still not be ready. They can love you in a way you have never been loved and still not join you on the bridge. And whatever their reasons you must leave. Because you never ever have to inspire anyone to meet you on the bridge. You never ever have to convince someone to do the work to be ready. There is more extraordinary love, more love that you have never seen, out here in this wide and wild universe. And there is the love that will be ready.”

— Nayyirah Waheed

why is it so controversial to admit that you crave intimacy. yes I now I should be content with being alone for a while. heal, take my time. But I do crave intimacy!!! I just wanna hold hands, fall asleep as I go through their hair with their head on my chest. I wanna hug someone and look them in the eyes, feel all the warmth building up in my heart. I wanna wait for a train to arrive so I can jump up and down because I missed them so much. I wanna wake up before they do so I can see the joy in their eyes when I bring them a coffee. I love being alone and solitude but I also love loving. It’s what I was made for.

Remember that the right person will never get tired of you even in the worst times

[ryanthedemiguy]

No, they will! But they'll work through it, or walk away for a bit (i'm talking minutes to hours) and then come back.

People can love you and still need to get away from you for a bit. And there is nothing toxic about that — it's good, in fact. It helps remind everyone involved that everyone has boundaries, and everyone needs time to themselves.

It's okay. Calm down before you talk about something that made you angry while your loved one is sick. Be sure of what made you mad so you can discuss it together.

Love isn't a one-way street, and it's something that takes work. Part of that work is knowing when you need to step away.

[borderlinereminders]

Yes! I love this add on.

and there lies your hand feeling the warmth of their hand, begging you to not put an end on this warmth even if something important comes up.
