#FlashBackFriday to the time I got
#married , then
#divorced 4 months later. 😂 After seeing so many post of people hurting because of
#broken hearts, I decided it was time to share my story. The same way people fall in “in love”, they can fall out of love. And that’s ok. People change, or try to change you (in my case both, right after we got married). It’s normal for feelings to change though, even love. It’s better to be alone, than to be with the wrong person. My advice for everyone out there, looking for “love”, is to accept people for who they are. The less you feel you need to change someone, the better they are for you. Change comes from within, so trying to change someone never works, because we are not letting them be who they truly are. Instead of focusing on what you can change about that person, focus on the actual person. Become best friends. Love and respect each other always, for who they are. Don’t date “looks”, date personalities. Looks fade, personality doesn’t. Build a future with someone that will help u grow, so you can grow together. It’s a partnership. It’s not easy. It requires work, effort, love, respect, acceptance. Last but definitely not least, probably the most important one, communication. Talk to the person, be real, let them know how you truly feel. Even if it means telling that person you are falling out of love, at least you’re being honest with them, and yourself, instead of working on something that has no repair. Love is weird, love is confusing, love is joy, love is hopeful. Even though love can take us on a roller coaster of emotions, and love can be the most painful thing you ever felt, that hurt or pain only exist, because at some point, that same love made you feel whole, complete, accepted. Always show your love, and love yourself, because love is beautiful, and so are you ❤️
