*If They Want To, They Will*
Apr 28, 2023 7:54 PM
This is one of the hardest life lessons to learn, but also one of the most important you cannot force someone to make you a priority in their life if they do not want to,you cannot force someone to love you and commit to you if that is not what they desire.
As painful as it is, you have to accept that you are not in control of others and you cannot make them want something they do not. The only thing you can control is your reaction. You have two choices:
- Chase and beg them to be in your life. Shower them with attention, gifts, favors, and affection in the hopes that they will come around and want you. But this never works and only results in you feeling powerless and like you have to earn their love.
- Accept that that they do not want what you want. Pull back your attention and affection and instead, redirect it to yourself. Focus on your own growth and purpose. Do not waste time chasing people who do not want you. The right people will see you becoming a better you and will want to chase you.
You deserve someone who will make the effort because they truly want you, not because they feel obligated or guilty. Do not settle for less than that. Have confidence in yourself, keep improving yourself, and the right person will come along who will give you what you deserve because they want to.
