A long time ago I learned not to explain things to people. It misleads them into thinking they’re entitled to know everything I do.

Don’t attach yourself to anyone who shows you the least bit of attention because you’re lonely. Loneliness is the human condition. No one is ever going to fill that space. The best you can do is know yourself… know what you want.

I used to think I was being too picky but fuck that. I deserve someone who wants to know about me. It may sound silly but I don’t wanna be out here fucking with people who never ask my favorite color or if I ate today. I deserve someone who wants to hear my dreams just as much as I want to hear theirs. I deserve the same energy and effort I release. Fuck that.

Can we just work on ourselves for a while so when we reconnect in the future we can give each other the best versions of us?

[kushandwizdom]

When I'm disrespected and I cut all ties with the person, they no longer have access to the raw, devoted, encouraging, compassionate or loving side of me. Nah the 'me' they have access to now is reserved, restricted, unfamiliar, uninterested and unbothered.

You should never feel guilty about removing toxic people from your life.

"but I will go down with this ship and I won't put my hands up and surrender, there will be no white flag above my door. I'm in love and always will be..."

I think the hardest part about falling in love is that you no longer have control over your own emotions. one word, one look could change your entire day, whether it be good or bad. someone has the ability to get inside your head, learn everything about you but it’s never guaranteed that they’re going to stick around. but i think the worst part is that you don’t even have control over falling in love. it just happens, even if you don’t want it to. it’ll either break your heart or make you feel alive, but the most awful truth of it all is that we all die at some point, with or without them.

I will never abandon you.. It's a cold world and I'll never forget the time we kept each other warm. So as long as I'm alive, you'll be alright.

i feel the shift; everything is changing, i’m losing certain things and it’s super easy to give up right now.

Confession: I have a friend who likes to text me at like 4am when he’s had nightmares or he can’t sleep or he just needs a friend. He thinks I’m always awake at 4am but really I go to bed around 12am and I change his text-tone to the loudest one I have just so it wakes me up when he needs me.

you’re the kind of friend everyone needs

I think that since its been a year since I made this post its time for an update. In the past year I’ve watched this post grow and grow, people I work with have told me about it as “this post I saw the other day” and they have no idea it’s my post. The person I wrote this about has even reblogged it. He is no longer texting me at 4am. Not because we no longer speak but because the nightmares have stopped. He and I both are in a much better place. Most often the only times he’s waking me up at 4am is when he’s pulling me closer to him while we sleep. He’s more than a friend now and I’m forever thankful to have him. Everyone messaged me saying he was lucky to have me but I think I was just as lucky to have him and I would do it all over.

The update just makes it even better ❤️

If I had to give you one piece of advice it would be this: Don’t be intimidated by other peoples’ opinions.
