And when you use someone else to justify your ego, to justify your self-love and your confidence, it is going to wither away at the drop of a pin.

It is going to be built out of feathers.

You need to build your self-love out of bricks.

You need to build that brick by brick by yourself.

Because if it's leaning on someone else, what happens if that person walks away?

What happens if they decide they no longer love you?

What happens if they don't know how they feel about you?

It all comes crumbling down.

And that's why I will die on this hill.

I will always talk about how important it is to love yourself more than loving someone else.

and i've been in the relationships where you feel like oh my gosh this person is my everything my whole world revolves around them i can't live without you you are my life i don't like when people say that anymore because i don't think that any person even if you are the most in love people in the world you shouldn't attach to them as if your entire life and existence depends on it

That is not healthy.

And that's when we end up in situations where people are not respecting us.

They are not seeing us for who we are because they know we will always be there.

If I can give you one piece of advice.

Don't be the person who waits around.

Do not be the person who's stuck at the restaurant, okay?

Don't be that person.

And I say this with love because I've been that person.

And let me tell you, no one will respect you.
