Introduce yourself, ask her some basic filler questions, laugh a little and then ask her for her number or to hang out. It might feel weird, even a little tricky but hey, you do what you got to do sometimes and you never know where it’s going to lead you.

You convince yourself that you need them and that happiness can’t be found without them, even though happiness isn’t really a word you’d use to describe your time with them.

One constant in my life is that I always leave – and probably always will – but the other constant is that I still have friends that love me even though I always leave them behind, so thank you for loving me regardless of where I am.

I was living with next to nothing and I was the HAPPIEST I’ve ever been in my entire life.

I realized everything could be going wrong for me but I don’t have control over those things. I can’t control those things. The only thing I have control over is how I react to the things that are going wrong.

This is me deciding I can’t control everything and I have to be okay with that. This is me deciding things will be okay – somehow, someway.

The lows are here to remind us how lucky we are when the highs roll around, they teach us how to be appreciative.

It’s time to accept that some people will settle. That some people are happy with ‘good enough’. That some people would rather settle for shitty love than be alone because being alone scares them more than a mediocre love.

I would break myself over and over again wondering why I wasn’t good enough, why you didn’t want to stay once the sun came up, why you didn’t want to commit. But I realized it was my own fault.

Don’t allow someone to start treating you poorly just because you’ve been together a “long time.” The little things and compliments should never stop.

It’s easy to believe someone is different because it’s what you want to believe. You want to believe the person you love and you want to believe things are going to be better this time around.

You are not too much or too little, you do not love too hard or feel too much, you do not need to change a single thing about yourself to make someone more attracted to you because you are perfectly enough the way you are.
