1. Communication is Key
Don’t be afraid to tell someone what you need in a relationship. And don’t be surprised when they don’t care.
2. Looks Don’t Last
In this world, there are people prettier than you and people uglier than you. You can date any of them, but remember the hot ones can do better.
3. Don’t Take Things Personally
If someone rejects you, it doesn’t mean you’re not a good person. It just means you’re not good enough for them. Don’t get hung up on it! Happens all the time.
4. Don’t Chase. Be Chased.
Someone who really cares will smile when they see you, ask how it’s going, and if you can spare any change. Because they’ll probably be homeless.
5. Recognize Your Value
You are more precious than gold, so it’s normal for people to dump you. They know they don’t deserve someone as great as you.
6. Actions Speak Louder Than Words
If your bae says that they love you, but treats you like poopoo, they probably don’t love you. Simple logic.
7. Be Honest About Your Feelings
Be brave! Tell someone how you really feel! Honest and open communication will help you both understand that you aren’t on the same page.
8. Don’t Over Analyze
Stop trying to decipher someone’s every word, every text message, every move. Just relax and take comfort knowing that in the end, it’s not going to work out.
9. Learn to Love Yourself
Take yourself on dates, buy something that makes you happy, and tell yourself you’re pretty, because ain’t no boo gonna do that for you.
10. Never Settle
It's not worth it to be with someone who is embarrassed of you, who doesn't enjoy your company, or who deals drugs. You're better off alone. So make yourself comfortable in that twin sized bed.
