"To be honest, no one is 100% free from fear when starting a new relationship. The fear of getting hurt is normal. But, the difference now is that I know myself better and what I want. I no longer let that fear control me, instead I see it as a learning process of building trust.”
Life after 40's is more peaceful than 30's
Do u know why?.
Becuz we learn to say NO
A thoughtful message on Sunday Morning.... Have a nice day ..keep smiling and shining .. life is beautiful.... just learn how to kick away the wrong ppl.
If a guy is giving very little effort, does that mean he’s not very interested? Or he’s genuinely busy? This guy Ive been chatting with takes 2 days to respond to a text. It’s been 2 weeks like this and he says he’s just busy with work and traveling.
I’ve heard that when men are interested, they make the time and put in the effort, energy, and initiative. Which makes me think he’s just not that into me. Seems like the story of my life at this point lol.
Relationship is not about having a handsome boyfriend or having a beautiful girlfriend. A relationship is about having someone who respects you, who cares about you, who understands you, who is proud of having you, who loves the way you are, who is faithful to you, and who knows how to comfort you
It's about choosing character over appearance, consistency over convenience, and depth over display. Looks fade after the first fight. The person who stays up to talk through the misunderstanding, who remembers how you take your tea after a bad day, who apologizes without being forced to, that is the real standard. Do you think we confuse chemistry with compatibility because excitement is louder than peace, or is it because nobody taught us what healthy actually feels like? What's the most important trait to test early on, respect under stress, honesty when it costs something, or patience when you're not at your best? How do you think couples can build a relationship that survives boredom, not just passion? What's one thing you'd want to tell someone who's tired of chasing aesthetics and ready for substance?
Being single and independent means nobody is coming to save you — work hard, stay focused, and build the life you dream of on your own.
I had great expectations. But unfortunately I totally disappointed.i thought I can find my soul mate here.3abita
