Keep in mind that you’re never going to find someone who is perfect or a perfect match. Because the truth is, you’re not perfect. And you never will be. And you know what? Neither is anyone else. You’re only going to find other flawed human beings who are going to do their best to love you. Try and accept and appreciate less than perfection. You’ll find it easier to find love that way.
… and I would rather have the heart of one man, over the attention of many.

I won’t ever tell you what you can and cannot do. I’ve signed up to be your partner, not your parent. If you want to put yourself in a position that can ruin what we have, then so be it.

Cheating, most of us have been there. You don’t ever see it coming because it’s the small things that build up over time that invite the toxicity into your life.
Shock, anger, rage, and sadness infiltrated my mind along with the usual dosages of self-doubt. Was I not pretty enough? Was I not smart enough? Where did I go wrong? What did she have that I didn’t have? What was I lacking that would make him want to stray…
ENOUGH.
Enough is enough. I sulked in that pity party for far too long when I decided to reach up and slap myself in the face. You are not a reflection of someone else’s decision to be unfaithful. Your self-worth is not bound to their confusion and lack of appreciation for you.
Life is 10 percent of what happens to you and 90 percent of how you react to it. Life is going to happen and heartbreak is inevitable. Use these seasons of hardship as the fuel you need to set ablaze the fire that will ignite you into a better future.

I hate being suspicious about things, but damn that gut feeling is always right.
💔
Never try to control him. Let him do what he wants so you can see what he’d rather do. His actions will show how much he respects you.
When those texts start getting shorter with you, they’re getting longer with someone else.
Love, despite living in Disposable Culture, will not dispose of a person for some far-off idealization of a perfect person.
💔
And in the silence I suddenly understood the many ways a person can die but still be alive.
💔
Phubbing: the habit of snubbing someone in favour of a mobile phone
One day she’ll get tired.
You’ll know when that day comes.
It will be the day you feel as ignored as she did.
💔
A woman’s intuition is dangerous.
If she keeps questioning you about a specific topic, over and over again, she really isn’t looking for an answer. She already knows the truth but wants to see if you’re going to be honest with her.
When you are a good person you don’t lose people, they lose you.
💔
Looks like I won “the I love you more” game.
One I would have gladly given anything to lose.
💔
I miss when love felt simple. When love was without thought and without worry. I miss when love felt as natural and as easy as breathing, when everything we did and everything we said was out of love.
I miss when love was not a list of reasons why I should stay and why I should go, neither of them winning, neither of them making sense. I miss when love was not tangled up in resentment and hurt, and anger.
I miss when you were the answer to every question, not the one creating them. I miss when love was not a game of secrets when I had to play detective to uncover your latest crime. I miss when you told me things before I discovered them, I miss when there was never anything to discover in the first place. I miss when your phone did not feel like a loaded weapon, when it did not feel like something which would go off and rip my entire world apart. I miss when female names did not feel like stab wounds to my chest. I miss when I was not convinced you wanted to fuck her. I miss calmness inside my body instead of this twisting, sickening feeling like I’m hurtling towards the ground.
I miss when love felt simple. When love was exactly what I had spent my whole life knowing it to be. I miss when love was just happiness and contentment when our love was the definition of the word. I miss when I knew that what I felt and what we shared was love. It was easier that way, certain, concrete. Love meant you and me forever, for always.
But now, I’m not sure what love is, I’m not even sure it lives with us anymore. I miss when love was not tears and silent treatment. When love was not locking myself in the bathroom and sobbing so much my chest felt as if it might collapse. I miss when love was not this, not hurtful, not pain. I miss when love felt like love, like flying, like freedom. I miss when love did not feel like a knife carving away at me, taking pieces of me, making me come apart.
I miss when love felt simple.
💔
One day you will understand why storms are named after people.
💔
It should be a no brainer.
💔
And you knew what you were doing when you were doing it.
💔
And finally you realize…. you can’t force consistency, loyalty or even honesty.
You can’t force them to keep their word, or to communicate… or to realize something special is right in front of them.
💔
The mind replays what the heart cannot delete. Such a profound statement.
💔
Sometimes I feel I’ve got to
Run away I’ve got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
I’ve lost my light and I can’t sleep at night
I took it personal because I wouldn’t have done it to you. Never.
💔
If a man loves a woman’s soul, he’ll end up loving one woman. But, if he just loves a woman’s body or face, all the women in the world won’t satisfy him.
What if happy thoughts would multiply like rabbits.
♥
Even when I realised I could no longer trust you, I still could not keep myself from loving you. Even when I realised you didn’t deserve me, I still felt like I deserved you. Because I had already given so much of me, and invested so much time and energy into “us” that it didn’t seem fair to walk away with nothing.
💔
I trusted you….
That’s all I want to say.
💔
And I can’t believe I hadn’t realized that when we spent all those moments together she was in the back of your mind the whole fucking time.
💔
Nothing boils my blood more than a guy making a girl feel crazy for her suspicions when he’s doing exactly what she’s questioning about.
She used to call him her “life.” So what happen then? Well, her “life” changed.
People change.
Even the devil was an angel once.
💔
I’m not perfect. When it comes to relationships, I mess up, I fall too hard, I get easily jealous. But there are three things I am proud of being me:
I always think of you before I fall asleep. The words you said, the way you looked. The things we laughed about, the silent moments we shared. And when I dream, I’ll dream of you. Because it’s about you, it’s always about you.
♡
I only want to be with you two times…
Now and forever.

By now I am sure you all have heard about the fires in my city of Fort McMurray, Alberta. I was at work 1 hour south when the evacuation came into affect. My husband drove north with our cats and was put up in a camp on his job site. My company put me up for a night until on May 4th – the fire had spread very quickly and started to burn my worksite. I was evacuated at 10pm. It was scary. To the right of the road were flames, so high, the sky was red. I drove all night until I reached Edmonton. I had worked all day so I was up 24 hours but the 7 hour drive seem to fly. Adrenaline is a powerful thing. My husband is flying to Edmonton tonight. As of today my house is still okay. I am safe. It is almost unthinkable that this is happening. The fire fighters will be fighting this for weeks and weeks. I have no idea when the city will be safe for people to return. I do know once we do return we will be shocked at the devastation.
The first time you touched me, I knew I was born to be yours.
♥
There is a reason people like you and me find each other. Maybe it’s chance, maybe it’s fate, but I know it’s not an accident.
♥
Yου are the best.

The truth is that the more intimately you know someone, the more clearly you’ll see their flaws. That’s just the way it is. This is why marriages fail and why friendships don’t last. You might think you love someone until you see the way they act when they’re out of money or under pressure or hungry, for goodness’ sake. Love is something different. Love is choosing to be with someone in spite of their flaws. Love is patient and kind, love is deliberate. Love is hard. Love is pain and sacrifice, it’s seeing the darkness in another person and defying the impulse to jump ship.
♥
That’s what marriage is all about.

Actions speak louder than words.

I have always been able to control everything … except my heart around you. When you walk into a room there is no controlling that light-headed feeling along with a serious bout of butterflies.
It’s like I have only ever surrendered my heart to you, no one else, just you. You know my hopes, my fears, my struggles, my wants. Oh, I can try to hide them from you with words but you are the only one who is able to read the thoughts behind my eyes.
You are my puzzle. I can control every other aspect of my life but my feelings for you never dwindle.
♥
I haven’t been on here lately and it’s not that I have forgotten but I am busy … enjoying life in real time with with you. Afterall, why be on a computer when I can be with the man I love.
♥
You like hot dogs – I like hamburgers
You like Cheese Whiz – I like Havarti
You like rock – I like hip-hop
You like steak – I like chicken
You like beer – I like wine
You like true stories – I like fairy-tales
But in spite of of the differences…
You love me & I love you
♥
Looking back is easy
If you’ve got memories like ours
It took a moment to believe
But there we were, the two of us
Hit by love

However inappropriate this picture may be, I just love it. To me, it’s like getting slapped broadside across the face with the fact that I am in love! It’s a fun and exhilarating feeling – it’s a feeling of being excited about love.
Fun, thrilling, exciting… all words to describe how I feel about you.
♥
When I see you, the world stops. It stops and all that exists for me is you and my eyes staring at you. There’s nothing else. No noise, no other people, no thoughts or worries, no yesterday, no tomorrow. The world just stops and there is only you. Just you and my eyes staring at you. When I’m not with you, the world starts again and I don’t like it as much. I can live in it but I don’t like it. I just walk around in it, and wait to see you again and wait for it to stop again. I love it when it stops. It’s the best thing I’ve ever known or ever felt, the best thing.
I don’t like being apart from you, not hearing your voice, not having you close. Just to be with you, I ache for it. I’m tired of waking up alone.
♥
You see me. You know every single detail about me. Not because I tell you or constantly remind you, but because you pay attention. You see who am I. You see what others are to busy or to blind to see. You see me.
I love you.
♥
People always say that, when you love someone, nothing in the world matters. But that’s not true, is it? You know, and I know, that when you love someone, everything in the world matters a little bit more.
I love you!

Another morning, another evening in which you walked through my dreams like you own them … and perhaps you do.
And after I have woken up, put my clothes on, and walked to the kitchen to start the coffee, your arms are still around me and your hands are still in my hair. The things you said to me, during our three weeks together, still ring in my head and heart. While I get the coffee ready, your arms go around my breasts and your face in my neck. And I wonder, sometimes, if I turn around that you will be there, behind me. I could put my back to the counter and face you again. To see you, touch you, and kiss you.
But whenever I turn around, you’re not there.
I look forward to that now not-so-distant day, the day I walk off that plane and into your arms, the day we will be together and never be apart again.
I love you.
♥
I really, really wanted to write something for you this morning. Something nice for you to wake up to. But I’m afraid my mind is coming up with not much more than daydreams of you and thoughts about how much I miss you. Putting the words “down” seems impossible. I hope you won’t mind but I’ll just borrow some lyrics from a song this time. I love you. ♥
When I’m with you
I’ll make every second count
cause I miss you, whenever your not around
when I kiss you
i still get butterflies
years from now
I’ll make every second count
when I’m with you
yeah we’ve had our ups and downs
but we’ve always worked them out
babe am I ever glad we got this far now
still I’m lying here tonight
wishing I was by your side
cause when I’m not there enough
nothing feels right
so I’m coming back to show you that I’ll love you the rest of my life
– Faber Drive When I’m With You
You are amazing. You are brave. You are kind. You are smart. You are generous. You are incredible. You are my greatest friend. You are one in a billion. You are a dream come true. You are really something. You are always on my mind. You are fabulous. You are important. You are everything I’ve ever dreamed of. You are what you are. You are unique. You are sexy. You are perfect for me. You are special. You are loved.

Live Love Dream
