Cannot build

You cannot build a relationship with someone who ignores

you, your phone calls, or your texts.

And you cannot build a relationship with someone who

won't talk about the future with you, or make plans with

you.

And you certainly cannot build a relationship with someone

who isn't willing to communicate and have the necessary

conversations.

But it is not your job to try to convince someone to be

different.

And it's not your job to convince someone of your value,

and of your worth.

Your only job is to be a protector of your heart, and of your

boundaries.

And you need to challenge yourself to be that protector.

And the first step in loving yourself is the boundary of 

goodbye.

And you will be fine!

There will be someone else, and yes...you can handle the

loneliness of going back out there again.

Anything is better than betraying yourself to be in 

something that is going nowhere.
