Don't sabotage every relationship you have because you think he might take you back. Or because you think you're going to get hurt like your dad was. Like your mom was.

Don't ruin every chance you get to be happy because you still believe he is what truly makes you happy.

Don't waste your nights, laying in bed, crying because how much you miss him. Wishing he could be with you to make it better even though he is who hurt you.

Don't not allow yourself to move on.

You deserve to be happy.

More so than he could ever make you.

Please, please, allow yourself to be happy again.

You are beautiful.

You are strong.

Only you can define your happiness.

So please... Don't.

Don't let him keep hurting you like this.

Move on.

Explore new things.

Taste new foods.

Meet new friends.

Visit new countries.

Allow yourself to find someone who can make you smile.

You deserve it.
