It doesn’t feel like it right now but you deserve to be loved. Like really, really loved. You accepted less than that. You let someone take advantage of your love and they never gave any back.

They treated you like a doormat, like a piece of trash that they could do whatever they wanted with. They also treated you like their own personal punching bag.

They told you over and over that nobody would ever love you. They made you think they were the best you could ever get. They were wrong. So, so wrong.

There’s someone out there right now just waiting to love you the way you deserve to be loved. It might not seem like it but there are still good people left in the world.

Just be careful. Don’t give your love out so freely this time. Don’t let them take advantage of your kindness. It’s easy to attract the wrong people if you are settling for less than you deserve.
