You can’t make someone stay if they want to leave. You can’t make someone who’s pretending to be asleep wake-up. If someone misses you or cares about you, they’ll reach out or show it. If someone truly cares about you, you can feel it even if they don’t say it. If none of these things happen, they probably don’t need you to worry about them because you can’t force love. People who contact you are less likely to care less about you. If someone breaks up and quickly finds someone new, it’s often not about that person being better, but about moving on. True love means staying faithful and not falling for excuses. If it’s meant to be, cherish it; if not, let it go. You can usually sense if someone likes you or not. Sometimes, even smart people deceive themselves. Don’t make promises you shouldn’t and don’t force love. If someone doesn’t fit in your life, let them go. Don’t keep calling someone who doesn’t answer; those who care will call you. Don’t chase people or things; your time is precious. Act with a clear conscience and accept that not everything is meant for you. Love can’t be rushed; cherish it when you have it. If you have love, give it your all; if not, live a fulfilling life on your own. Meeting someone is rare, but leaving is just part of life. Act with confidence to attract the right people. Be kind to others, but don’t fear making mistakes. Unhealthy attachment after a breakup isn’t love; it’s reluctance. If someone takes a long time to reply, they may be busy or with someone else. Love isn’t complicated; falling in love is. Loving someone is more important than falling in love. It’s scarier to love the wrong person than to be single. Life is neither as perfect nor as terrible as we imagine. Find the right person to love or love yourself if you don’t.

Women are often described as being made of water, but some women are as strong as cement. They don’t act coquettishly because no one spoils them, they aren’t willful because no one pampers them, they don’t cry because no one coaxes them, and they aren’t lazy because they lack support.
