Not going out without him by my side.
Another mistake I used to make was leaning too heavily on my boyfriend when going places or traveling.
Now, in my current relationship, I go wherever I want, whenever I want — with or without my significant other.
I try to make it a point to go to bookstores, shopping, and take girls trips solo so that we can have the fun of missing each other, and strengthen our bond in the process.
Besides, distance does make the heart grow fonder.
When I switched jobs, I took a trip to Prague to celebrate, and going away gave my boyfriend the chance to show his true feelings when he missed me dearly and sent me numerous WhatsApp love notes
Prioritizing someone who doesn’t do the same for me.
Never again will I put the time and effort into a relationship if I feel that my partner isn’t reciprocating.
Now I will only stay in a partnership if I feel completely loved, adored, made to feel special, and someone’s #1 on their list of priorities.
If I ever feel taken for granted, I don’t wait and see if things will get better, I leave and find someone better — someone who actually cares.
As I’ve met and been courted by different men, I’ve learned to have a zero-tolerance for BS, as my self-worth increased.
Relationships take work, and you shouldn’t just bail anytime something goes wrong, but you deserve to find someone who will value you because being with the wrong person can and will make you miserable.
Being with someone who doesn’t care makes you question whether or not something is wrong with you, but the right person will make you love parts about yourself that you never even thought to appreciate.
