“If a man doesn't call you it's because he doesn't want to call you. If he doesn't invite you to go out it's because he doesn't care. If he lets you go, it's because he doesn't want to be with you. When a man says, 'I'm not ready but you are the love of my life and the only one I want but now is not the right time.' It's simply because he doesn't want you. Don't keep playing his confusing games. Don't justify him. When a man wants to be with a woman he stays with her without lies, excuses and complications. Stop being genuine and naive, and stop justifying his every excuse and complication and put yourself first. You DO NOT need someone that doesn't know what they want, you DO NOT need someone that doesn't see your worth. You deserve a man that knows you're worth and fights for you every day. Stop breaking your own heart for someone who probably won't even be as good as you expect and give yourself the opportunity to be happy with someone who actually deserves you.”
