You stopped seeing each other for a reason.
You were apart for a reason.

Your optimism could hurt you.I know you have a forgiving nature.
I know you see the best in everyone else.
And I know you have your heart set on ending up with him.
But if hes treated you poorly once, then hes capable of doing it again.
You dont want to give him a million chances to shatter your heart.
You dont want to continue putting yourself back in the same situation, hoping things might change.
Sometimes, its better to be a little bit cynical.
Its better to protect yourself from the heartache hes already given you before.
Fighting for the relationship isnt always the right move.Serious relationships require hard work and sacrifice.
Love is supposed to be a two-way street.
Youre not supposed to be doing the bulk of the work.
Youre supposed to be acting as a team.
Its important to know when enough is enough.
When its time to walk away.
When youve done all you’re free to do.
Its common to convince yourself that the real him would never hurt you.
Its common to think hes either a good guy or a bad guy.
There is grey area.
The sweet things he said were real.
But so were the mean things.
You might think he deserves another chance because hes doing so well since youve separated.
But sometimes, patterns repeat themselves.
Sometimes, certain pairs are toxic together.
It doesnt make either of you a bad person.
It just makes you a bad fit.
Even though it hurts to admit, you might be better off apart than you are together.
Youre comfortable with them.
Plus, as you get older, the pressure to settle down deepens.
But running back to the past isnt always a good idea.
You stopped seeing each other for a reason.
You were apart for a reason.
You deserve someone who doesnt screw things up.This guy hurt you.
He did you wrong.
He made you cry your eyes out.
He made you question your worth.
You didnt deserve any of that and you deserve someone who would never put you through that.
