won't wait

Why don’t you tell me that

“if the girl had been worth having, she’d have waited for you?”

No, sir, the girl really worth having won’t wait for anybody."

— F. Scott Fitzgerald

The Truth about Forever

But I'd long ago learned not to be picky in farewells.

They weren't guaranteed or promised.

You were lucky, more than blessed, if you got a good-bye at all.

— Sarah Dessen

The Single-Bullet Theory

Everybody's got one person out there. One bullet. And if you're lucky in life, you get to meet that person. And once you do, once you're shot through the heart, then there's nobody else. No matter what happens -- death, divorce, infidelity, whatever -- nobody else can ever come close.

- Michael Connelly

because it's an EX--ample


of what you shouldn't have again


in the future.

contentment

If we allow our relationship to be threatened by someone who can offer us something better, then all of us would be miserable because there could always be better partners than the ones we have now. It eventually becomes a matter of contentment. Let us try to make our relationship work even if at times we lose our interest in it. Being blessed is not always about finding someone new to love but being able to continue to love someone we've always had.

go on

Don't let it break you.

No matter how hard it is.

Life goes on.

South Of The Border, West Of The Sun

I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. I knew this was going to happen. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I should be, but I’m not. I just feel pain. A lot of pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong.

-- Haruki Murakami

love the imperfections

You may find your partner boring so you will try to look for someone else, someone new, someone better. then you got a new partner and you realized that the old partner you thought was boring is the best you ever had.

What's the lesson?
LOVE THE IMPERFECTIONS.

someone smiles

You yearn for someone not because you want to be complete.

But because you want to add more color to your life.

That person must not necessarily break through your busy schedules.

That person must inspire you to manage your time well instead.

You see, it's not a matter of distance and time,

it's more like friendship in a higher level.

It's smiling alone every once in a while.

Knowing that somewhere,

somehow,

someone smiles at the thought of you.

not even close

I found the right guy,

gave the perfect love.

It was the right time.


Everything was perfect except for one thing.

For him,

I wasn't the perfect girl

and I wasn't even close to being the right one.
