Encontrar a pessoa com quem podemos ser nós próprios não tem preço

Quando a tua cara-metade é a tua melhor amiga, é a melhor coisa possível. Porquê?

When you’re dating your best friend, you can be yourself.

There’s no awkward pretending, no faking anything.

They accept all of you. They’re no stranger to your world – on the contrary, they’re part of it.

It’s important to know that someone accepts your flaws and your dark side. Not everything in life is fluffy and pink.

If you’re dating your best friend, it means you’re not interested in shallow things.

You don’t care about making impressions, you don’t care about causing drama.

O que lhe interessa é estabelecer uma ligação profunda que dure para sempre.

Interessa-nos quando alguém nos vê por aquilo que somos, para além da nossa aparência e do que aparentamos ser.

Preocupamo-nos quando alguém é capaz de nos lembrar como a vida é preciosa, apesar de todas as coisas mundanas que acontecem todos os dias.

When someone makes your life the most magical thing ever on the good days, and makes you feel optimistic and understands you on the bad days, they’re your friend, they’re a keeper.

There’s no small talk when you’re dating your best friend.

You’re very straightforward with each other and you enjoy being fully honest because life’s too short to spend it waiting for someone to say what’s in their heart and on their mind.

You welcome each other openly and enjoy each other’s presence always.

Com eles, podemos ver o futuro. Podemos ver-nos a envelhecer e a criar memórias para toda a vida.

They make you feel safe and know for the first time in your life that that’s it.

Pela primeira vez na tua vida, sabes que é a pessoa certa. Tudo flui tão naturalmente.

In this relationship, there’s no holding back.

You both wear your hearts on your sleeves because for once in your life, you’re not afraid to let yourself go completely.

Fazem-nos rir tanto que nos curam.

Trazem a fé de volta à sua vida e fazem com que o seu passado pareça apenas um sonho mau.

You love them with your whole being and you know that’s how they love you, too. You’re sure of it and that makes you so happy.

Amamo-los pela sua coragem de serem eles próprios e porque nos aceitam por tudo o que somos.

Bad days are just a fleeting thought and good days are memories you’ll cherish forever.

When you’re with them you feel complete. You feel good enough. You feel like nothing can touch you. And that’s true.

Quando temos alguém que nos aceita na totalidade, não temos nada a recear.

That’s the biggest thing in life – to have someone you can be yourself with. It’s priceless.

There’s no point in relationships that camouflage the truth.

If you’re trying to impress the person you’re with by doing something that’s not natural to you – you’re bound to fail.

Gostava que mais pessoas pensassem nisso antes de iniciarem uma relação.

There’s no point in building a relationship if you can’t be yourself because it’s doomed from the start.

That’s why you’re grateful for the one you have.

A verdadeira amizade é o segredo do verdadeiro romance e o caminho para que uma relação dure para sempre.

You’ll never get tired of your best friend.

Life’s too short to be with someone who makes you feel like you’re not good enough the way you are.

Porque tu és.

Finding someone who’s going to be there for you through all the hardship and still make you feel passionate and appreciated is the best thing that can happen to you.

So, go ahead and tell your person you love them for everything they are and enjoy a love that will never be compromised, even when life’s testing you; while doing that, thank yourself for never settling for anything less.
