Warning Labels

Feb 15, 2012 19:29

So it seems, over the course of the last few relationships, that I should come with a warning label.  And I mean this in the most sincere and humble way.

I don't go out looking to break hearts.  I don't like getting my heart broken, so why would I want to break your heart?  There is no reason why I would ever want to cause someone that much hurt.  However, I do.

Below follows my only reasoning as to why I'm such a heart breaker:

I'll treat you well
I'll give you the moon, if you ask for it
I'm polite, kind, and loving
I'll take care of you when your sick
I'll never start a fight
I prefer to talk (or debate) versus arguing
I don't care if you go out for a night with the boys
I don't care if you check in every hour
I fulfill all of the "woman"s roles without a question
I'm laid back
I'm out going
I'm soft spoken
I speak my mind
I'm smart
I'm silly
I can chill with the boys
I can hang with the girls
There is no secret that I can't keep
I'm loyal
I'm understanding
I'm sexually open
I'm comfortable with both of our bodies
I don't need gifts
I don't need compliments
I don't even need sex if that's something you aren't into

The bottom line is, I'm not that special.  I'm just a girl.  I've been the places that people need to go in order to grow in life.  But that doesn't make me special...

You know what?  I think I am special.  I am special, and such a heart breaker, because I love you when you can't love yourself.  And although lots of girls will love you, they need that love back at the end of the day.  I don't.  I love myself, and that's all I'll ever need in life, and if you want to love me back at the end of the day, that's your choice.  But I'll love you regardless of the day, or time, or situation, because someone needs to love you.

So I'm sorry to all of those hearts I've broken, but there is nothing I am willing to change to repair what has been done.  I can only offer this advise: Love yourself.  Love yourself before anyone else.  People will come and go in life.  Friends, lovers, family, they all move, age, and die.  The only person who will be there with you through all of your tough times is you.  Learn to pick yourself up when life gets you down.  Learn to make yourself laugh.  Learn to appreciate both sides of an argument, alone.  Learn to cry without a shoulder.  Learn to vent without an ear.  Learn what you like through what you see in yourself.  Learn what you dislike through what you want to change about your own personality.  Learn to grow, and see yourself objectively.  But above all else, learn to love yourself.
