I know I’ve touched on this before, however, its been heavy on my mind this morning.
So I figured I’d go over it again.
I saw a post on Facebook that said…

“Find a woman that’s too good for you and become a better man for her… That’s how you get to forever…”

Yeah, I don’t agree.
If you’ve found a woman too good for you, then you have to become a better man just for her.. then you’re not going to find forever.
If she knows she’s too good for you to begin w/ and isn’t giving you the time of day. Then you don’t want those kind of people in your life anyways.
You need someone who will be with you for YOU.
Now, if this woman decides to be w/ you, and pushes you to pursue your dreams and aspirations to better yourself, then THAT’S the kind of person
you want in your life. Some one who will be there for you, by your side, who will help you up when you fall, who will continue
to encourage you when you fail. That’s is how you get to forever. By helping EACH OTHER to get there TOGETHER.
NOT one person changing to meet the standards of another.

You shouldn’t have to change for anyone,
be you.
I’ve spent so much time trying to rationalize the fact that I wasn’t changing for her, I was changing for myself BECAUSE I wanted to be w/ her.

But in the end I realized, evidently, I was indeed changing for her.
Most of it not to better myself.
I was a coward, and instead of
keeping or even elevating my standards.
I dropped my standard and changed myself,
just to make her happy.
You should never have to sacrafice “self” for ANYONE. Be you, and elevate yourself.
If they don’t want to come w/ you. Then you’re better off.
