“Since loving is about knowing, we have more meaningful love relationships when we know each other and it takes time to know each other.” – Bell Hooks

You can't spend the rest of your life living in the FEAR of getting hurt and call that a life...

Pain is a part of life, sorry but this isn't the last time people will hurt you.

Human relationships aren't perfect. If all you do is build a WALL to protect yourself from getting hurt, you'll end up pushing everyone away including people who mean well!

Strong relationships withstand the tests of time and brave the hardships encountered as though they are the necessities for survival.

Everyone has baggage from past relationships, but the person who really matters is the one that will stand there and help you “unpack”....

If you want light to come into your life, you need to stand where it shines

Life is too short, so take care of yourself. If someone consistently treats you poorly, set boundaries out of respect for yourself. It will hurt, but it will go away with time.

Often we leave not because we show weakness, but because we show strength. And we end relationships not so that others will realize our value, but because we ourselves finally understand that we deserve better.

Trust based on honesty is the foundation of strong and bonding relationships. Lead an honest and happy life.

Good relationships don’t just happen. They take time, patience and two people who truly want to be together.
