You still have a lot of time to make yourself be what you want.

I hope that you find someone who brings out the best in you and makes you appreciate and love yourself even more

and I hope that when you finally find that person, they will stay.

Ask for what you want in life, take risks, don’t be afraid of failure, you will never get what you want if you never try, so just do it.

Be a good person, but don’t waste time proving it.

There’s so much more to life than finding someone who will want you, or being sad over someone who doesn’t. There’s a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in love with you along the way, and it doesn’t need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with love. Not anyone else. Become a whole being on your own. Go on adventures, fall asleep in the woods with friends, wander around the city at night, sit in a coffee shop on your own, write on bathroom stalls, leave notes in library books, dress up for yourself, give to others, smile a lot. Do all things with love, but don’t romanticize life like you can’t survive without it. Live for yourself and be happy on your own. It isn’t any less beautiful, I promise.

Not all girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice. Some girls are made of sarcasm and wine and everything is fine.
