Anyone who has had a serious relationship that didn’t work out remembers the feeling of picking up the broken pieces of their life and figuring out how to live again. Whether the relationship fizzled out or ended in a spectacular failure, it scares us at our core and stays with us for years to come. Some people give up on love completely because of the pain. Others jump head first into a string of hook-ups to drown out the loneliness and hurt they are feeling. No matter what, they are forever changed.
It’s better to love and lose, then to never have loved at all
It’s normal to be afraid to get into a new relationship because of past experiences. No matter how bad a previous relationship was, there were some good memories that will stay with you forever, just the same as the bad memories. If you let your fear of being hurt again stop you from falling in love again then you will be hurting no one but yourself. You’ll be missing out on one of the most beautiful things in life.
Experience makes you better
The next time you get into a relationship, you’ll make sure that the same problems don’t occur. If your partner was cheating on you, you’ll make sure not to get into a relationship with someone you’re not sure you can trust. If you were being mentally abused, you won’t allow yourself to be manipulated the same way again. If you weren’t being treated with the respect you deserve, you won’t put up for less than how you deserve to be treated. You’re better than you were in that relationship. You are better than you’ve ever been.
You deserve love
Everyone feels like they aren’t good enough from time to time. Everyone wonders are they deserve the love of a beautiful soul. It is so common for us to mess up a great thing because we think we aren’t worthy of it. Get those thoughts out of your head. Everyone deserves love. Instead of asking “why me?”, ask “why not me?”. Instead of sabotaging a beautiful thing, surrender yourself to the power of love.
If you have a special someone that you are afraid to take the next step with, put aside your worries and enjoy yourself. We only get one ticket to this thing called life and it’ll be gone in an instant. It’s the things we didn’t do that we regret most when it is all said and done. If you don’t have a special someone yet but are unsure if you should start looking, don’t hesitate any longer. Open up your heart and experience what the universe brings to you.
