You dont take advantage of their forgiveness.
You dont blame your ex for screwing you up.
You dont turn the situation around so you can blame your person either.

You dont claim you lied to protect their feelings because you knew they couldnt handle the truth.
When you love someone, you own your shit.
You take responsibility for your actions.
You dont eventryto wiggle out of the dog house because you understand your choices have consequences.
When you love someone, you are disappointed in yourself every time you cause your person pain.
You want to make it up to them.
You want to wipe the tears away and see them smile again.
You want to set things right.
When you love someone, you take action.
You make a conscious effort to change your behavior.
You promise to work on yourself and you keep that promise.
You follow through because you believe your person only deserves the best.
When you love someone, you consider their happiness a priority.
You put effort into making them feel loved, appreciated, and comfortable.
You dont attempt to get away with dishing out the minimum amount of effort.
You dont attempt to exploit them, manipulate them, take advantage of them.
When you love someone, you dont make the same mistakes over and over again.
You dont see how many times you could screw up and get away with it.
You dont take advantage of their forgiveness.
It doesnt mean you might continue treating them poorly.
You should not treat your person well to stop them from complaining, to convince them to stick around.
You should treat them well because youwantto treat them well, youwantthem to be happy.
It makes you feel like a failure as a forever person.
It makes you feel like you dont deserve their love.
And if you keep making the same mistakes, youdontdeserve their love.
You dont deserve another day alongside them.
When you love someone, you take a stab at become the best possible version of yourself.
You give a shot to treat your person as well as they have always treated you.
