An apology doesn't come with an eraser. Forgiveness doesn't mean memory loss. Once the house of trust is broken, it has to be rebuilt. Things aren't the way they were before, and they may not be for some time. If the person who wasn't truthful isn't willing to be patient and open to rebuild broken trust, then it may not be possible to rebuild. ~Doe Zantamata

Red Flag: "You are amazing. I am so grateful to have you" are good compliments which show that a person recognizes your worth. "You're too good for me" is not a compliment. It's a red flag from someone who doesn't feel that they are good enough for you. For you to make sense in their world, they will begin to look for things that are wrong with you and point them out. This can be quite upsetting, as you'll go from someone who could do no wrong to someone who can do no right. Even the tiniest, most unimportant things will be criticized. Insecurity causes envy, spite, and being critical of others. You can't fix them, but you can avoid having your self-worth attacked by choosing not to pursue a relationship any further. ~Doe Zantamata

If you ever look back on a relationship and think, "What did I see in that person??" It could be that your mind saw a challenge, it could be that your heart thought it saw love, or  it could be that your soul recognized an excellent teacher of self-worth. ~Doe Zantamata

Close your eyes for a few minutes, and think of a situation or relationship that’s been troubling you. Imagine letting that relationship go. Do you feel regret, or relief? Use your answer to determine if it’s time to try something different to fix it, or if it’s just time to try something different. ~Doe Zantamata

Looking for love can feel like searching for a missing piece of your heart. You will keep looking for that one special person who will complete you, until you finally realize that person is you. It's better to share a full heart with another person, rather than one that has a piece missing that they can never fill. ~ Doe Zantamata

If you really want an answer, stop asking, "Why am I being treated this way?" and ask instead, "Why am I putting up with this?" p.s. It's not "love." (~Doe Zantamata)

If someone swore to you that they were over their ex, then one day decided to go back to that ex... LET THEM GO. They are either: 1. A big liar or 2. Indecisive about their feelings Are either of those qualities really ones that you want in a partner? You may be tempted to try to win them back, or prove that you are the one for them. But you are not the one for them. You are the one for the person who doesn’t need convincing and who is emotionally available and completely present in your relationship, not partially claimed by some unresolved ghosts from the past. ~Doe Zantamata
