When Your Love Isn't Enough

Wrote this about a month ago, & I'm just gonna continue where I left off. 

Sometimes you may love someone with all of your being, and that still won't be enough. Love, unfortunately, is a two-way thing. You can't love your way into someone else's life, unfortunately. We have to stop thinking that we can win them over when it's clear that they don't feel the same way. We have to realise that when people say no, sometimes they really do mean no. 'No', is not a substitute for 'maybe if you try hard enough'. That's not how it works. It's not about what you do, it's not about you - it's about the other person & what they want, which in this case, is not you.

Once you've realised that, you're on the road to moving on. The next step, I guess, in my experience, is realising that you're worth more than a failed non-relationship, or a relationship, even. It's realising that your self-worth isn't dependent on someone else. It's also about knowing that if this isn't the person you're gonna end up with, there definitely is someone, somewhere who's looking & searching for you, exactly you. & all the heartbreaks you'll go through, will simply lead you a step closer to The One.
