Wouldn’t it be nice to be with someone who will choose you over and over and over again?

Love is a choice you make every single day.

You deserve to find the kind of person who shows up for what you share, someone who believes in it.

You deserve someone who loves you the way that makes you feel loved.

What I learn from my relationship is : just because he said he loves you, it doesn’t mean you feel loved by him.

You deserve that Clarina, you deserve someone who won’t get mad and willingly to do a tiny detail that makes you happier.

Someone that you could tell about how you like flowers that you don’t have to ask for, those dates that you won’t need to plan.

Someone that you could tell how love letters, notes, and long texts means so much to reassure you.

Someone who proudly and happily put your photos with him in his social media accounts.

And someone who you could tell how small surprises and random coffee booster in the middle of your harsh day means everything for you.

You deserve all of that, and I know you are tired of pretending you don’t.

Since you remind me again that I deserve all the good things in this world, now that I get it.

I sometimes forget to thank you for trying to understand me when I don’t even understand myself.

I forget to thank you for making time for me despite you hectic job and day.

Sometimes I forget to thank you for saying yes to my random request and many things.

And most importantly I should have thank you for loving the part of me that’s not easy to love.

You are not perfect, and so am I, but rather, I am tired of pretending.

I want to be real in front of you without feeling scared.

Perfect is an illusion. Real is when you find something special even when its not perfect.

You deserve someone who reminds you that love was always meant to be soft and warm.

Someone who wants to be part of your world, and want you to be part of his.

Someone who lets you know you’re on their mind, someone who checks in on you, someone who wants you to know that they care for you.

Choose someone who makes love feel easy and calm.

Love is more than just good looks and pretty words in the mouth.

Love is like coming home.

Dear Clarina,

I hope you know that not being the person someone else wanted does not make you a failure. You are worthy and amazing, just as you are.

You should know that there is nothing wrong with you. You just need to find someone who could love you as a whole.

Someone who could love you as his home.

Someone that when you are loved by him makes you feel like you’re coming home.
