I’m sorry, maybe I gave you the wrong idea about what love is. Maybe I made you think that love was being so attached to someone that you leave yourself vulnerable to them but you trust them enough to believe that they won’t hurt you. It’s true, trust is essential to love, but it’s also true that you can’t love someone else if you don’t love yourself. Being in love means to love someone so much that you hold on to them while they’re here but love yourself enough to let go when they’re gone. You see, the hardest part of losing the person you love the most isn’t letting go, it’s losing yourself in the process.
