You fall into a routine.

Maybe you go to the same place every Friday night.

Maybe every night is Netflix and sweats.

Pursuing your goals

Relationships and partners should push us to be our best selves.

Do you feel like youre settling?

Do you feel comfortable where you are?

Maybe you stopped dreaming of that promotion, because yourehappywhere you are.

Push your partner, and yourself to pursue your goals.

Dont ever lose sight of what you want.

in your life

When you date someone, you want them to be a part of your life.

If this hasnt happened yet, you’re gonna wanna ask yourself why.

Becoming your best self

I want the person I date to make me a better person.

Find a partner who encourages you to look and feel your best.

Find someone who pushes you to eat clean, workout, and take care of your body.

Fighting

No relationship is perfect.

If youre dating someone and havent experienced your first fight, it’s crucial that you.

Im not saying that you should be fighting daily, but fights can be healthy.

Fights can show you if that person has a temper.

How you recover and bounce back from a fight is important.

I believe the relationship isnt really real until youve had that first fight.

Letting your guard down

Are you still putting on a mask with your partner?

I dont want to be with someone I have to put an act on with.

I want to be myself.

Find someone you dont have to try with.

Someone who gets you.

Someone who loves and accepts your weirdness.

Relationships are hard work.

Theyre constantly evolving and changing.

Always be yourself, be confident, and know your worth.
