Just A Thought (Lowered Expectations...Uh, No):

You tell me you feel like shit; like nothing; that you're incomplete without him. But what difference does it make if you feel like shit; like nothing, and are incomplete while you're "with" him? You hold on to him for the sake of "having a man." You carry around the weight of a heavy heart to save face, and have convinced yourself that it's okay to feel empty and be unhappy, because having a piece of him is better than having none of him; because having a piece of him matters more than your peace of mind. But how much sense does that really make? When will you choose to rally for your heart the same way you rally for his? In all honesty, for as much as you think you love him, it's quite impossible that you do. Ladies [I'm gonna write this in BOLD so that you understand], YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY LOVE HIM WHOLLY WHEN YOU'VE YET TO LOVE YOU. #BeStrong #ItsOkayToWalkAway#YouHaveToMatterToYouToo
