relationship rant

My thirteenth universal truth lead directly into the fourteenth.
When someone doesn't like you as more than a friend, be wary of allowing yourself to sink feelings of sorrow.

It's true that each of us will hurt someone else, break someone else's heart. There's no way to avoid it. Those feelings of sorrow then, are good to bear in mind. (so that you will be kinder in telling someone else that you don't like them like that - because you know how it feels)

But those feelings of sorrow are something you should never allow to get a hold on you. That feeling of sadness (regardless of whether it was caused by an uninterested guy or a messy breakup) is not your fault.

Sometimes it's easy to think the feelings of sadness are our fault -- some sort of failing in what we did or who we are. This simply is not the case. It's neither party's fault when something doesn't work out between a guy and a girl. It's simply that the two parties are in two different places in their lives... and what they want and feel they need is different than what would be possible through the combination of the two individuals.

Never let someone else make you feel that your worth is diminished. There's someone out there who will love you unendingly. Someone who will love you so intensely that not only will it make up for all the bad you've had to deal with, you'll forget about the bad completely.

Universal Truth Number Fourteen
Your heart belongs to someone you've yet to meet

There's no reason to worry, as Death Cab once said, someday you will be loved.
