Why do individuals stay in relationships when they know they are unhealthy? Why do we settle for less than we deserve? Why do we stay with someone just because we are worried about being alone? These are questions I constantly ponder. I see it take place so much around me and have even been guilty of it myself. People are so afraid of taking chances and making changes in their lives that they end up unhappy. Relationships are supposed to be fun, loving, full of laughter, and new experiences. Relationships are not perfect and they never will be perfect, BUT when you are only with someone because you are worried you will not find someone else, or you stay with someone because you’ve invested so much time into them already, you are wasting the most valuable years of your life. Instead of staying with someone just because it’s comfortable you are ruining the time in your life that could be focused on yourself or someone new. So why do we not make the change, why are we so full of fear we just choose to settle? NO ONE is worth losing yourself or your happiness. NO ONE is worth spending years of your life being miserable. And NO ONE is worth staying with just so you aren’t alone. If you are miserable, you fight, and have heartache time and time again. Then you are already alone. You need to learn to break away from anything or anyone who does not make you, the BEST you. Break the cycle. Don’t be with someone just because it’s comfortable. Love yourself first, because at the end of the day that’s who you will be spending the rest of your life with anyways.
