the people you date should not micromanage you.

it took me awhile to understand but

trust me — the statement is true.

if anyone tries to inform you

of how to wear your hair,

i hope you look them

in the eyes and tell

them, “don’t you

dare.”

the style of clothing you put on your body

is a decision only you can make.

a relationship is not supposed to

cause you to burn who you are

at the stake.

if someone attempts to change

the way that you naturally are,

the problem is not you but

rather their view on love

is quite bizarre.

real love is not tough

and dating isn’t meant to hurt,

so if either of the two ring true for you,

i hope that connection you choose to desert.
