"Do not sabotage your new relationships with your old relationship’s poison."

nostalgia is a liar. nothing was ever as good as you remember it to be. there’s a reason you don’t talk to that person anymore, there’s a reason you’re not part of each other’s lives. don’t trust nostalgia. grieve. reflect. move on.

"I am eternally, devastatingly romantic, and I thought people would see it because ‘romantic’ doesn’t mean ‘sugary.’ It’s dark and tormented…the despair of an idealism that you can’t attain."
- Catherine Breillat

When I fall in love with someone, I don’t feel love just with them; I start to love the daily life of that person, their passions, the street where they live, their family. even their pets.. and that’s why breaking up is so sad for me - I feel like I have to let go not only a person I deeply love, but also their personal universe made of their friends, their favorite songs, the plants in their driveway.. even the ringtone of their cellphone

One thing I started doing a long time ago that changed my relationships is I started making myself speak up when I had nice thoughts. If I’m in line at the grocery store & I notice that the woman in front of me has beautiful eyes, I say something. If my sister walks in the house & I like her eyebrows, I say something. People forget how much little tiny compliments like that can make someone’s whole day. It doesn’t even have to just be compliments. It could be saying “I love you” when you’re thinking it even if it’s at a random time. Sometimes I get up and go over to my mom just to give her a hug out of the blue cause I was thinking about her. I’ll randomly send my friends texts about how I appreciate them whenever I’m thinking it. Little gestures like that mean so much.
