Stay true to yourself

When you stop living your life for yourself and start living it as two meshed into one you are only doing a disservice to yourself and to the one you love.

When you stop doing the things you love, going places you love to go and hanging around people you've always loved-you are taking pieces of you away that one day you may find hard to get back. And you will want them back.

Love someone. Love them for who they are. If they love you for who you are-great. If you try and change each other-change interests, friends, hobbies, style, beliefs-If you try and chain one another to the other every day, not allowing them to grow and explore this world at times alone and free-you will only have regrets.

One day that person will not be in your life. Could be tomorrow, next week, next year...could be 40 years from now. But one day they will not be there. You will awake one day to find you are indeed alone. That you have spent "x" amount of time losing yourself just to please another...and now that other is gone. You will regret not doing things you wished to had done, giving up people you loved, giving up a piece of you that made you who you were.

it is better to be alone, then to be loved for what you are not.
