Para cuando te des cuenta de que has perdido a la mujer de tu vida, ya te habré superado

Es curioso cómo los hombres a menudo tienen un período de comportamiento imprudente justo después de una ruptura. Casi parece que lo celebran.

On the other hand, women are almost always curled up in their bed and sobbing every night… Well, until they are not.

It seems strangely coincidental that most of the time, that’s probably the time when the man starts to sob and guess what happens to her? She doesn’t care anymore.

Life sure has a distinct sense of humor and in this case, we’re all for it.

This happened to me. I was the late-night sobbing girl. I guess I cried the pain away because one day I just woke up and said, “That’s enough.”

I didn’t want to do this to myself anymore. I wanted to live my life. I wanted my life to have meaning again.

So what if a man thought I wasn’t good enough for him. That was the same man who couldn’t provide me with the simplest things—for example, attention and care.

So what if he’d moved on with his life?

Bien por él, porque lo último que necesitaba era volver a saber de él y quedarme atrapada con el mismo comportamiento inmaduro que fue una de las razones por las que rompimos en primer lugar.

Sin embargo, para la mayoría de las mujeres, lo más probable es que cuando la realidad le golpee por fin, te quiera de vuelta.

That’s because you were everything he needed; he just couldn’t see it.

It’s easy to take all the love and care for granted. The problem is when that turns into abuse and abuse is something that’s unacceptable.

Love should be cherished and praised and it should go both ways. But in your case, he couldn’t see it.

He lost the woman of his life—and that’s his fault, not yours.

All the things you gave him will haunt him because love doesn’t go away.

Cada cosa bonita que vea y toque le recordará a ti y al amor que perdió por su insensatez.

Once he gets it, it’s going to be late. By that time, you will know better.

En ese momento, te darás todo el amor a ti mismo en primer lugar.

Loving yourself is absolutely mandatory. By putting yourself first, you’ll not only get over him but learn to recognize true love from others.

You won’t be played again because once you give yourself the love you give to others, that’s when you will realize how little love they were giving you.

You’re over him because he doesn’t match your potential más.

Formó parte del proceso de aprendizaje por el que tuviste que pasar para estar donde estás ahora y por eso, puedes estar agradecido.

Now you know how to approach life from the right side. You know how to react with power and authenticity, you don’t have to wait for someone else.

Te bastas por ti mismo y lo sabes. Sólo eso ya te convierte en una mujer poderosa.

There’s no force in the universe that can stop a woman who knows herself, who appreciates her own unique beauty, respects her mind and chooses to choose love over anything.

This time it’s the love for herself. If a man can’t recognize those things within her, he’s not the one.

That’s why you don’t settle for someone who is just there. Someone who thinks that their physical presence is enough to make the relationship work.

Piensa y sueña a lo grande. Date lo que quieres porque puedes hacerlo.

If that’s a man, believe he exists. If that’s living on your own and feeling happy, that also exists.

Sólo tienes que acceder a tu propio poder y hacer que suceda.

¿Y sabes qué? Tienes ese poder dentro de ti, igual que tuviste el poder de seguir adelante incluso cuando dolía como el infierno.

Don’t wait for things to happen—just take your first step and watch things fall into place.

And most importantly—never forget that you’re the woman of your own life.
