“Great love and great achievement require great risk” -Dalai Lama
“Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness.” — Bertrand Russell
Certain farewells can be harder than others. When we are to part with friends and know in our hearts that somewhere in the future that we will meet again, the farewell can be bittersweet.
But if we are to part for an uncertain period of time from a loved one, the farewell will take on a different dimension. As one unknown author aptly says, “The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected.”
That’s because the heart so much refuses to let go, and that’s what makes it so much harder to let go. The long days of absence of a loved one simply makes the heart squeezes in pain and the tears to fall uncontrollably.
Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
— Dr. Seuss
It’s upsetting to think that someone can, after so long, so many memories and so much love, just turn around and say, “Sorry, I don’t love you anymore.” After everything they have gone through, it hurts to think about how somebody can change their mind on such a thing as their love for another. I can’t even begin to understand the reasons behind this. I know things change and nothing lasts, but I just can’t seem to comprehend how can a feeling change, just like that, in a blink of an eye? And it scares me, so much.
–(via idareyoutoclickthis) It means they NEVER loved you at all and were just using you for their own needs. Just think yourself lucky that it ended when it did and you didn’t go for longer because you would have been hurt more! This is the nature of a FICKLE and ‘good time’ person. They only want to be with you when things are good. The minute there is a problem they dump you. Good Riddance!
Imagine, a parent doing this to their child. ‘Oh, you are not behaving well, I am no longer your parent because you are upset!” You are lucky to have the memory of your affection but count yourself lucky that you didn’t waste any more time with someone who was obviously using you to make themself feel good. You WILL find another love more worthy of you!
Via Words & LyricsIn my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you. The right person will still think the sun shines outta your ass. That’s the kind of person that’s worth sticking with.
– Juno (via idareyoutoclickthis) Via Words & Lyricsif he truly cared about the way you feel, he wouldn’t have done the same thing to hurt you another time. someone who loves you wants the best for you, whatever makes you happy- that should make them happy, so you do in return. that’s the way real relationships work when you’re in love.
–I read this quote at least 5+ times…..and every time i read it, the more and more sick to my stomach i felt. This is such a codependent thing to say. Yes… “whatever makes you happy-should make them happy”, but that’s how unrealistic relationships work. It’s all about compromise and communication that helps make a relationship work

Nothing hurts more than realizing he meant everything to you, but you meant nothing to him.
Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you.
In the end, who among us does not choose to be a little less right to be a little less lonely. ~Robert Brault
Trouble is part of your life, and if you don’t share it, you don’t give the person who loves you enough chance to love you enough. ~Dinah Shore
To know when to go away and when to come closer is the key to any lasting relationship. ~Doménico Cieri Estrada
I don’t miss you, I miss who I thought you were.
When a man professes his love for a woman but spends most of his time with another woman, is it love?
She loves him more then he would ever know, he loves her more than he would ever show.
If I hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t like you. If I hadn’t liked you, I wouldn’t love you. If I wouldn’t love you, I wouldn’t miss you. But I did, I do and I will.
Always do what is right. This will surprise some people and astonish the rest.
If you’re going to make me cry, at least be there to wipe away the tears.
I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.
We laughed until we had to cry, we loved right down to our last goodbye, but over the years we’ll smile and recall for just one moment we had it all.
Tell it like it is
If you want something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Baby my time is too expensive
And I’m not a little girl
If you are serious
Don’t play with my heart
It makes me furious
But if you want me to love you
Then baby I will, boy you know that I will
Tell it like it is
Don’t be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide
But I know deep down inside me
I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride
Life is too short to have sorrow
You may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might as well get what you want
So go on and live, baby go on and live
Tell it like it is
Valentines Day: Love is a grave mental disease - Plato
“It is better to lose your pride with someone you love rather than to lose that someone you love with your useless pride.”
When love is not madness, it is not love. ~Pedro Calderon de la Barca
“Sympathy constitutes friendship; but in love there is a sort of antipathy, or opposing passion. Each strives to be the other, and both together make up one whole.” - -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
If you love someone, let them go. If they return to you, it was meant to be.If they don’t, their love was never yours to begin with.
We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.
“You don’t marry someone you can live with - you marry the person who you cannot live without.”
Loving can cost a lot but not loving always costs more, and those who fear to love often find that want of love is an emptiness that robs the joy from life.
“Physical pleasure is a sensual experience no different from pure seeing or the pure sensation with which a fine fruit fills the tongue; it is a great unending experience, which is given us, a knowing of the world, the fullness and the glory of all knowing.
And not our acceptance of it is bad; the bad thing is that most people misuse and squander this experience and apply it as a stimulant at the tired spots of their lives and as distraction instead of a rallying toward exalted moments.”
“Do not assume that she who seeks to comfort you now, lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. Her life may also have much sadness and difficulty, that remains far beyond yours. Were it otherwise, she would never have been able to find these words.”
“…perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave. Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us.”
“Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.”
- Rainer Maria Rilke
