To Hear a Person Say They Love You

The amount of things a person will put up with just to hear a person say they love them is crazy to me.

As well as staying with a person because they are "nice" and "do everything for me." That person sounds like a great person but maybe someone has never told you this. Just because somebody is a good person, they are kind, gentle, and smart. Just because someone does everything right doesn't always mean that they are right for YOU. 

You will meet more than one good person in this lifetime. Find the one that still gives you butterflies after years of seeing them everyday. Find the one that isn't perfect. Find the imperfect person who dedicates their time to bettering themselves and along the way, encourages you to better yourself too. Grow together. 

You don't have to accept a person who makes you anxious when they are upset because you expect them to be mean to you or make you feel guilty. Just so when they are having a good moment you can hear them tell you that they love you. Let them go. Even when it hurts.

You also don't have to accept a person who makes you feel like you should stay with them just because other people tell you how nice they are and what a great person they are. I'm glad you met someone like that. I glad you found someone who shows you unconditional love, but if they do not set your soul on fire, if they do not challenge you, if they do not seek to grow with you, then hunny. Let. Them. Go.

Even when it hurts.
