Para a rapariga que se apaixonou pelo Sr. Talvez, pensando que ele era o Sr. Certo

Quando nos apaixonamos, queremos um conto de fadas da vida real. Queremos alguém que nos deixe de rastos e que nos dê borboletas e emoção.

You don’t want an ordinary love. You want to feel like you are on top of the world and like you can achieve anything as long as you have that special someone next to you.

Queres um homem que te faça sentir viva, um homem que faça com que todos os teus dias valham a pena ser vividos e recordados. Quer paixão e aventura e não está disposta a contentar-se com menos do que isso.

And this is everything this guy is giving you. Ever since you met him, you feel like you’ve lost all control of yourself and as if you are going through a roller coaster of emotions. And the best part is that you like it.

Mas também quer certeza e estabilidade. Quer ter alguém em quem possa confiar e que esteja sempre ao seu lado.

You want a man you can count on through thick and thin and a man who will be your biggest support on good and bad days. A man who will take care of you when you are sick and who’ll worry if you’ve gotten home safe.

You want a man whose feelings you’ll never have to question. A man who will love you the same at your best and at your worst. Someone you can be yourself in front of and someone you can plan a future with.

Mas não é isso que tens com o teu namorado. E quando pensa nisso, tudo o que está a receber dele é uma tonelada de "talvez".

You might see him tonight, the way he promised. But maybe you’ll fall asleep all dressed up, with your phone in your hand, desperately waiting for his call or text. Maybe he’ll find time for you tomorrow or he might go see his friends because you are at the bottom of his priority list.

Talvez ele simplesmente se tenha esquecido de lhe enviar uma mensagem porque estava demasiado ocupado. Ou porque era a última coisa que lhe vinha à cabeça.

Ele pode estar a fazer-se de difícil e lutar contra os seus sentimentos por ti ou ele pode estar apenas a fazer jogos mentais consigo. Talvez ele veja a vossa relação como algo sério ou talvez a veja como uma aventura sem sentido. Pode ser a única rapariga na vida dele, mas também existe a possibilidade de ele estar a sair com várias outras mulheres ao mesmo tempo.

Maybe he loves you in his own way but there is also a possibility that he doesn’t care about you at all. He might be incapable of loving at all or he is just taking advantage of your feelings for him. He might be emocionalmente destroçado ou talvez seja apenas um idiota egoísta.

E a lista continua.

But have you ever asked yourself if his almost love is what you need in life? Is the guy who can’t seem to make up his mind about you really what you deserve or want? Or are you just settling for this Mr. Maybe because you hope that someday he’ll come to his senses and become Mr. Right?

Well, guess what? He won’t. He will never change and he’ll never become the mature man you hope he’ll be. He will always remain Mr. Wrong and it’s time for you to accept this.

It’s time for you to deixar de o justificar and for you to stop looking for excuses for his behavior. It’s time for you to stop overthinking and for you to stop trying to get inside this guy’s head.

Time for you to stop trying to decode his mixed signals and to stop trying to read between the lines. It’s time for you to put an end to this almost relationship and to stop settling for his almost love.

It’s about time for you to accept that you are entitled to more and better. Time for you to walk away from this man because that is the only way for your Mr. Right to walk into your life.

Because he will come along when you least expect it. And when he does, you’ll be certain of his love, like you’ve never been sure of anything else in your life. And you’ll have no doubt that he is the one for you.
