Im torn between wanting time to go by slow so I’m not stressed about my schoolwork or fast because I’m ready for tan skin, lake days, and warm weather.
Real life story time!
I briefly dated someone who saw flowers as a complete waste of his money. And refused to buy them. Like ever. REFUSED. Even on “special occasions”.
And it was exhausting trying to explain why I liked flowers and why it made me feel special for my significant other to get them for me.
Eventually I got tired of asking for that display of romance. And I left. I walked away and didn’t wait for him to break up with me. Sometimes, in the quest for better, you have to be the one to walk away.
But that’s not the point of this post.
The point is: that one hated the idea, and the right one was honored by the idea.
I’m now married to the man who has a whole BUDGET JUST FOR FLOWERS for me set aside and he carefully chooses ones he believes I will like. A whole budget. Please catch what I’m saying.
Maybe it’s not flowers. Maybe it’s quality time. Maybe it’s something else. The point is the one who WANTS TO, will.
Basically…
One man’s “why do you need all that from me” is another man’s “is that all you need from me?”
Remember that.
And stop settling my good sis.
The things you would like to have only scare those who have intentions of doing the bare minimum to skate by.
That means there’s a heart out there willing to put in the work
Carry on as you were. 💖☺️
Save this for later when you need the reminder.
