Sometimes, the biggest misunderstanding people have about relationships is the belief that if we try our hardest, we will definitely receive the desired response. But we forget that love isn't about effort alone; it's not logically connected or a predictable equation.

A truly good relationship should help you become a better version of yourself, not require you to constantly change to fit your partner.

Never try to please your partner or play a likable role in a relationship. Each of us is a unique individual.

The person who truly loves you will see your star, even across a sea of people, and walk toward you. May you meet that person soon on your life's journey.

They will love you, love you for who you are. You don't need to change yourself to please them. Believe that such a person is coming to you because you deserve it.
