You may not be her first, her last, or her only.

She loved before she may love again.

But if she loves you now, what else matters?

She’s not perfect - you aren’t either

and the two of you may not be perfect together,

but if she can make you laugh, cause you two think twice,

and admit to being human and making mistakes,

hold on to her and give her the most you can.

She may not be thinking about you every second of the day,

but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break

-her heart-

So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze

and don’t expect more than she can give.

Smile when she makes you happy,

let her know when she makes you mad,

&& miss her when she’s not there.

-Bob Marley

I don’t understand how you can smile all day long, But cry yourself to sleep at night.

How pictures never change but people in them do.

How your best friend can become your worst enemy, or how strange it is when your worst enemy turn into your best friend.

How forever turns into a few short months that you’d do almost anything to get back.

How you can let go of something you once said you couldn’t live without.

How even though you know something is best for you, it just hurts the same.

How the people who once wanted to spend every second with you, think a few minutes of their time is too much to spare.

How people make promises despite knowing how common it is for surprises to be broken.

How people can erase you from their lives just because it’s easier than working things out.

NEVER let a man destroy your life!

It might be hard to get over the man you love, but you won’t know until you try.

As women we tend to continue relationships that destroys who we are; Physically, Socially and Mentally.

We give up our Individuality, Happiness, Families, Friends, Pride, Wealth and Success in order to satisfy man in our lives.

Let’s face it girls, we are strong and CAN achieve so much without anyone’s help, so why let someone destroy what you worked hard for?

Let’s appreciate, Love and Believe in ourselves.

“I cooked and cleaned for him, stopped talking to all my male friends, come home early to him, bore a baby for him and what did I get?

A promise to get married which never happened, two other babies from another woman, a string of girlfriends calling his house and a death sentence of HIV/AIDS.

Was it all worth it? No, I knew all along he was cheating, but I stayed because I loved him.

I never realized he didn’t love me back.

A man who cheats does not love you, he just ‘likes you.’

“I am waiting for my last breath as I lie in my bed, helpless, knowing I will leave my child without a mother..

“Ladies, please don’t end like me.”
