I can always tell when they are starting to lose their grip.

I just want to believe that you’ll stay.

Please do not fool yourself into thinking that all you are after is closure the next time you are tempted to send that text.

Maybe I ended everything between us long before I even realized. Maybe the day I let you leave me and chose not to tell you how I really felt was actually the beginning of the end.

Have you ever noticed how you always seem to be attracting the same type of people? They force their way into your life.

No one wants to leave the person they have always envisioned their future with. No one ever really wants to admit defeat.

Where I am now is never where I planned to be, but I am slowly learning to be okay with this.

Now it seems like lately you are having less of the days where you are able to come back from that pain. These are the days when you can’t seem to stop hating yourself.

If it isn’t okay, then it isn’t the end.

You should be proud of yourself for being brave enough to admit when you just aren’t feeling whole anymore. 

Healthy relationships are all about balance.

Do I want the happy spouse and white picket fence? Or do I want the adventure and the chance to leave before I am left?

That’s the thing about love. It will always have its moments where it all goes wrong.

We have all meant something to someone.

If you don’t have the conversation about being exclusive, you can’t expect the person you are dating to be exclusive.

Maybe to you, I was just a phase.

The empty promises play through your head like the outtakes from a movie that no one ever wanted to see. Except these are not the outtakes; this is your real life.
