Until you believe it

Until you believe you are worthy of love, no one can love you the right way, it will never be real to you; it will only be a distorted mirror the prison of your mind.

Until you truly believe how precious you are, love will only frighten you. You will never believe what I see when I look at you. Not yet.

Life can only take you to places you let it: to the place of self-imposed punishments, defeatism and bitterness. But everything you go through will soften your hardened heart and will lead you back to loving yourself.

Happiness can only find you when you have learnt to accept yourself, when you know your worth and you’re not chasing the affirmation of others; when you’re not running from yourself any more. Then you will believe me and you will see the person I see when I look at you. And then, you will love again and you will be loved; you will trust and you will let me in because you will no longer be afraid of the person I’ll see in you. One day, you’ll realize that I knew who you are, I knew it all along, I just wanted to let you find your way.

    I wasn’t strong enough

    I must admit, I wasn’t strong enough for you. I didn’t know you must face your demons; only you can do that. I would do anything for you but it would all be for nothing. You must overcome your own darkness.

    Intimacy does not begin in the bedroom

    We all want to be in a relationship, we all want the benefits of a relationship and we want it as soon as possible. It seems like we want everything right away. To top it all off, we start playing games the moment we meet somebody in order to win – as if it was some kind of battle field.

    Love or desire?
    Love or desire?

    Love is the ultimate boost: a hard drug, an anorectic and an aphrodisiac in one. If love were simply a game, we wouldn’t feel this way. But it’s more than that. It makes your heart race and skip a beat, passion and the intensity of it all cloud your judgement and it makes you feel all sorts of ways for about six month to two years… yes, that’s all the human body can take. It’s impossible to feel all these emotions forever.

    Why is dating is so damn hard?

    I’m starting to think dating requires a set of special skills - skills I apparently do not possess. Presumably dating in real life looks something like the mixture of romantic novels and… well, reality. I do believe in real life fairy tales but I have never experienced anything like that, ever.

    How to break your heart over and over again

    Many times we don’t even see this, but the only person who stands in the way of our happiness is us. Only we have the power to do so. It’s like a crime story – you never suspect the actual perpetrator in the beginning of the story. You suspect everyone but them. It’s the same in real life. After all, who would suspect themselves? Why would the victim be the offender?
