 Follow me on Twitter for more quotes If you can see a future for yourself without me that doesn't break your heart, then we're not doing what I thought we were doing.  The only thing standing between me and total happiness is reality.  If you don't want me now, I don't want you later.  Whatever you do, good or bad, people will always have something negative to say.  Sometimes you have those days where only your middle finger can answer things.  It's kind of complicated but I'll tell you this, the second you're willing to make yourself miserable to make someone else happy, that's love right there.  Everyone tells us that we deserve better, but no one is willing to give it to us.  Life is a balance of holding on, letting go, and knowing when to do one of the two.  I just don't have enough middle fingers, to show you how I feel.  I finally understood what true love meant. Love meant that you care for another person's happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be.  If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never get it. If you don’t ask, the answer is always no. If you don’t step forward, you’re always in the same place.  Someone once asked me, ‘Why do you always insist on taking the hard road?’ I replied, ‘Why do you assume I see two roads?’  When you're struggling with something, look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something, and to them, it's just as hard as what you're going through.  I'm sorry I'm not the best with words and that I can never find the right thing to say at the right moment, but you scare the hell out of me whenever I think of how vulnerable I could be and what would happen if I opened up my heart.  You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go.  Reality of fear: You’re not scared of the dark; you’re scared of what’s in it. You’re not afraid of heights; you’re afraid of falling. You’re not afraid of the people around you; you’re afraid of rejection. You’re not afraid to love; you’re just afraid of not being loved back. You’re not afraid to let go; you’re just afraid of accepting the fact it’s gone. You’re not afraid to let go; you’re afraid of getting hurt for the same reason.  We cannot change our memories, but we can change their meaning and the power they have over us.  Life is trial and error, every relationship is not meant to work, sometimes you're just meant to learn the lesson.  This is how it goes; I will respect those who respect me, and forget those who forget me. Simple as that.  The hardest part about growing up, is letting go of what you were used to; and moving on with something you're not.  If you don't call me all day, I understand. When you don't text me all day, I understand. When I stop loving you, I hope you understand.  You can't change what has already happened so don't waste your time thinking about it. Move on, let go and get over it.  I just want to find someone who won’t run away. Someone to look me in the eyes and tell me it’s okay that things don’t always go right. That this is how life works, and how it will always work. That it’s not going to be easy. Today, tomorrow, the next day, but it will somehow get better.  You can say sorry a million times, say I love you as much as you want. Say whatever you want, whenever, or however you want. But if you’re not going to prove that the things you say are true, don’t say anything at all. If you can’t show it, your words mean nothing.  I’m not gonna give a fuck anymore… If you hurt me, I’m gonna hurt you. That’s how it’s gonna be from now on.  We're afraid to care too much, because we fear that the other person doesn't care at all.  Three things you cannot recover in life: The moment after it’s missed, the word after it’s said, and the time after it’s wasted.  Although I could've given you the world, I'm glad you showed me every reason not to.
