Ser solteiro é sempre melhor do que lutar pela relação errada

Tem medo de recomeçar? Acha que não vale a pena procurar outra pessoa, quando todos os homens que existem são iguais ao seu ex?

Ele tornou-a emocionalmente dependente dele? Has he managed to brainwash and manipulate you into thinking you can’t survive without his presence in your life?

Ou é a vossa história juntos? Sente-se triste com o tempo e o esforço que dedicou a esta história?

Ainda se agarra a esta charada de uma relação por causa dos anos que investiu nela?

Because you’ll see it as a waste of time the moment you admit that your romance has failed?

Is it because you can’t stand losing? Do you consider the breakdown of your relationship to be a personal defeat?

Ou tens medo do que as pessoas possam dizer? Are you afraid that you’ll be seen as an outcast just because you don’t have your plus one?

Are you still in this relationship because it’s become your comfort zone? Because you’re terrified to step out of it, even though you’re anything but happy.

O que é que o assusta tanto vida de solteiro? Why exactly do you think that you can’t make it without a man by your side?

Don’t you see yourself as whole? Do you think you need an emotional partner to complete you and to give your life meaning?

At the end of the day, the answers to these questions aren’t important. What matters is that either way, you’re fighting a battle you know you’ll lose.

Sooner or later, you’ll have to admit that it’s time for you and this guy to part ways.

One of these days, you’ll have to accept that the relationship isn’t right for you and that it’s time to say your final goodbye.

Então, de que está à espera?

Deixem-me dizer-vos que não há absolutamente nada de errado em ser solteiro. Na verdade, pode ser o melhor período da sua vida se decidir vivê-lo da forma correcta.

I won’t lie to you – getting used to a new scenario in your life won’t be easy at first. There will be times when you’ll feel alone, abandoned, and heartbroken.

Times when you’ll regret your choice and moments when you’ll feel like giving everything you have just to become a part of a couple once more.

However, these crises will pass. And once they do, you’ll be more than happy for making the best decision of your life.

Quando acontece, you’ll realize that you’re much mais vale estar solteiro do que estar na relação errada.

You’ll see that you’re way happier laying in a cold, empty bed than spending the entire night looking at your boyfriend’s back and wondering where things went wrong.

That it’s much better spending a Valentine’s Day alone do que adormecer toda aperaltada, à espera que ele apareça, como combinaram.

After the initial trauma fades away, you’ll realize it’s much better having your phone silent all the time than spending the entire day arguing over a text, or desperately waiting for a phone call that should but will not come.

That you’re way happier without anyone waiting for you to come home than you were with a possessive jealous psycho who tried to follow your every move.

Most importantly – you’ll understand that fighting for your own future beats lutar por algo que está condenado ao fracasso.

Que é muito melhor investir o seu tempo e energia na sua própria vida do que desperdiçá-los em batalhas inúteis.

As coisas vão ser difíceis no início, mas com o passar do tempo, vai acabar por perceber: não ter amor é melhor do que ter de implorar por ele e estar sozinho é melhor do que sentir-se sozinho numa relação.

When you least expect it, you’ll realize that it’s way better to give yourself a chance to be happy on your own than to settle for being unhappy with to the wrong person.
