About two weeks ago, a dear friend at school had her heart broken. It was sad to watch, and you could tell the news came as a surprise. She may be one of the most intelligent people I know, and has a good head on her shoulders. A few days ago, she posted this list somewhere online. It hurt to read it, as it reminded me of my current situation.
The following is transcribed with her permission:
1. If they can't commit, it means they don't want to commit to you.
2. In order for them to be worth it to you, you should be worth it to them.
3. If they would rather be with someone who is not as ambitious, smart or goal-oriented as you, let them. They don't value you. And you deserve to be valued.
4. If they believe that they don't deserve you, then they probably don't.
5. Your optimism can be your downfall. Sometimes it's important to be realistic. Not everyone can live up to their own potential. And nothing you do will ensure that they do. They have to do it on your own.
6. If they are not calling you, they don't care.
7. Being lonely is not the same thing as wanting them back. Don't confuse the two.
8. You must value yourself. You must know your own worth.
9. If they don't see your value then they are a fool. If they see your value and don't want you, then they are a damned fool. And if they see your value, want you, but don't want to put in any of the effort to be with you, then they are so much worse than a fool, they are stupid.
10. Life is a process. You just have to let go and let God.
I love you Allyson Lea
