"...These stories don't help you. These stories are the exceptions to the rule. We want you to think of yourself as the rule. Thinking of yourself as the exception is what got you into this mess in the first place. Tell your friends to stop telling you these stories...."
My Favorite Excuses
-"I'm just not ready"
-"He's afraid to get hurt again"
-"He just got out of a relationship"
-"But he's got a lot on his mind"
Ok, so I've read the book and I watched the movie yesterday and I have a lot of wheels spinning in my mind. If you think about it, everything makes perfect sense, it's just up to us to accept it or not. When you think you like someone you put up with excuses and re-word everything they say to you. Snap out of it! Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, I'm guilty of a lot of what not to do...but I won't let it happen in the future and no one should, guy or girl.
This is what I've come up with and I'm sticking to it whether anyone agrees with me or not...
-If you like someone, regardless of the situation, whether you just got your heart smashed and stepped on and you feel like it's the end of the world, don't let that get in between potential new feelings, don't use "i just got out of a relationship" as an excuse. You might actually be passing something amazing by.
-If you figure out you're just not that into that person, don't make excuses!!! Be honest and upfront! And don't let it continue, nothings worse than being in the dark.
-If you are honestly looking for a booty call be honest about that too and don't lead that person on making them think that it could really turn into a relationship
-Don't compare your old relationship to your new one...everyone is different!!! Obviously. Comparing and judging is just going to hurt your new relationship and it's just not worth the stress.
-Don't use the excuse "I'm just not ready to date anyone". This is such bullshit. The real answer, you don't like that person enough to date them.
-If you like someone, sometimes you have to risk being hurt. Life is about trial and error, if you don't try, how will you figure out what you want. Every relationship, good or bad, will teach you something new about you or what you are looking for.
I honestly don't know if people will ever learn. Maybe it's just this generation that's F*ed up. But I'm going to give love the benefit of the doubt...there are people out there that are genuinely good people and understand that feelings are involved when it comes to relationships.
So F*** the people that have hurt you
Know your self-worth
Learn from your mistakes
Don't accept anything less
Keep trying, don't give up, it'll happen when you least expect it
"Don't waste the pretty"
