“There’s so much more to life than finding someone who will want you, or being sad over someone who doesn’t. There’s a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in love with you along the way, and it doesn’t need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with love. Not anyone else. Become a whole being on your own. Go on adventures, fall asleep in the woods with friends, wander around the city at night, sit in a coffee shop on your own, write on bathroom stalls, leave notes in library books, dress up for yourself, give to others, smile a lot. Do all things with love, but don’t romanticize life like you can’t survive without it. Live for yourself and be happy on your own. It isn’t any less beautiful, I promise.”

– Emery Allen  (via perrfectly)

“And one day, everything you ever could’ve wished for will be smiling at you from the other side of the bed.”

“To be honest I don’t really know if you ever get over them. The first few months are the worst. You sit and think and try to hold on to all the memories you so desperately want to forget. You’ll cry and you’d be sad. But sooner or later you’ll realize that it just wasn’t meant to be, he wasn’t the right one. You’ll accept it and still be thankful for the time you spent together, because like it or not they will always be a part of you”
