Se ele não quer estar contigo, não o forces a ficar

Pousa o telemóvel. Don’t send that text. Don’t make that call.

Don’t ask him to come over. Don’t beg him to talk to you. He doesn’t deserve your efforts.

Wipe away your tears. Don’t waste them on him.

Stop fighting so hard to keep him by your side. There’s no need to do that. You are just going to exhaust all your emotions.

Let him be. Let him go. If he comes after you, if he matches your efforts, maybe there’s still something there. Maybe you still have a chance. If he doesn’t, then it was never meant to be.

And I know it’s easier said than done, but there is only one truth when it comes to love—love shouldn’t be forced.

You shouldn’t go to such lengths to make someone see you. You shouldn’t beg for his time. You shouldn’t be deprived of his affection.

Keeping in touch shouldn’t be so damn hard. Being there for you shouldn’t be an obligation. It should be something he does willingly.

You can’t make him ready for a true and committed relationship if he isn’t there yet.

You won’t do yourself or him any favors by waiting. He might never be ready, and you will end up waiting for forever. You will be stuck in a bad relationship in which you lack so much.

You shouldn’t hold your breath that things will change either. You shouldn’t hope that he will treat you better and pay more attention to your needs.

You shouldn’t hope that he will become more invested in your relationship or more present. He was supposed to do those things and be that man a long time ago. If nothing changed so far, it never will.

You shouldn’t become a different person to fazer com que ele se apegue a si . Ele deve amar-te e acarinhar-te tal como és.

Ele deve aceitar-te como tu o aceitaste, com todos os seus defeitos e virtudes.

Love isn’t about making pieces fit; it’s about those pieces coming together naturally.

It’s so simple and so true, but we forget about the natural and effortless course of things. We forget that love comes from both sides. We forget to take because we are so used to giving.

Love shouldn’t be hard. It shouldn’t feel like a never-ending battle that we always end up losing. It shouldn’t bring us more tears than laughter. That’s just not right.

It’s just that we sometimes become so wrapped up in the idea of love that we really start thinking that love involves pain and suffering.

Queremos tanto que as coisas funcionem que aceitamos tudo o que podemos obter, mesmo que seja apenas uma parte do que merecemos e precisamos.

It shouldn’t be like that, and you will realize that once you find your forever person.

Verás porque é que tudo teve de acontecer desta forma. Verás que tiveste de beijar alguns sapos antes de encontrares o teu príncipe.

You will see that love, when it’s real, simply flows.

Quando o amor é verdadeiro, ambos estão prontos para ele. Dão e recebem. Encontram-se a meio caminho, sem necessidade de forçar nada.

Quando duas pessoas se amam, gravitam em torno uma da outra. Arranjam tempo e esforçam-se sem que lhes seja dito para o fazerem.

Fazem com que resulte porque AMBOS querem; porque ambos sentem tanto um pelo outro que conseguem ultrapassar qualquer obstáculo.

Everything doesn’t always go smoothly, but love, affection and attention are never forced, and that’s the main thing.

E embora tudo possa não correr como imaginámos, quando temos a pessoa certa ao nosso lado, obtemos algo ainda mais espantoso do que alguma vez poderíamos ter previsto.

Por isso, libertem-se de tudo e todos que têm de ser forçados e abram caminho para o que é real. Espera pelo amor que flui.
