You can fall in and out of love weekly if your mind is open to it.
Love brings out the best and worst in people. There is no better person than a person in love and no more a horrible person than a person feeling they may lose that love.
Once you accept how horrible you can be, you avoid being that person. If we misperceive, misinterpret or misunderstand something then our emotions will reflect those errors, not actually what exists. Because we are human, we learn from experience.
A lot of things come into play because fear of #commitment is a real thing. Every time we commit, we reject all other possible alternatives. Just because your heart does not flutter does not mean you are no longer in love. It means you understand the difference between loving and being in love. The best kind of #dating is easy dating. It is easy, effortless, and fun. Meaning, you are both in the right #mindset. It is clear, palpable and mutual.
• We all start out as strangers. Eventually, one plus one is not two, it is exponentially greater.
Love comes in all packages and sizes. I've seen love that was slow to happen and love that is instant. Love is not a fantasy experience, not the stuff of romance novels or fairy tales. It is as real as the subway, it comes around just as regularly.
Sometimes, we do not know yet what we deserve. And still maybe you won't fully know what you deserve.
If you yearn sincerely enough, you will find it. The universe will shift and your path will soon intersect with the path you need.
Different people will awaken different things inside of you.
I can say this with certainty, a million men may tell a woman how beautiful she is, but the only time she will listen is when it said from the man she loves. He calls you beautiful like it is your first name. There is nothing I love more. Other than red meat. How amazing it is to forego the #possibilities to create an entire between-you-and me world with that person.
For me, I came across him, or so I thought...Myles McDreamy showed up unexpectedly and just in time. He made me blush even in the same room, gave me goose bumps, left me breathless in the end because the love there was a real, rare thing. I gave Myles McDreamy my heart because he was the right person, my person. At that time, Myles was the type of person who deserved the love I have to give. Our love story encouraged me to improve, to change, to evolve. To raise the standards. To be willing to move forward. He taught me lessons about myself, about love, and about life. He is an influence in my growth as a woman, a partner.
I truly believe that you learn a lot about falling in love when you fall out of love. You also learn a lot about being a friend when you are alone. When it rains, look for rainbows. When it is dark, look for stars. To truly love a person is to see all of their magic and to remind them of it when they have forgotten. The lucky ones...you will love someone whose heartbeat fills the breaks in yours and you will stop searching for reasons why.
You see, time heals nothing unless you move along with it.
I have a different philosophy on what it takes to make a relationship work and last forever.
The one who works to become better deserves my love. The one who will do everything for me that I would do for them and expect nothing in return. The one who will care for me as if I were an extension of him. The one who compromises, sacrifices, and fights for me. This person, this man, deserves my love. Entirely. Completely. Wholeheartedly. Raise the standards you have for yourself and those around you.
I am best in a relationship. I prefer to be partnered up. The benefits of that choice are massive - a happy, healthy relationship with a man to call my best friend, a man who adores me, and a certainty in my own strength. My heart is full. I know I am ready. I know I am enough. I know I am whole. One plus one is exponentially greater. For now, wait, wait, wait, wait, and wait some more with the patience of a Buddhist monk fly fishing ♥
