Relationship Heartache

If you love me, let me know. If not, please gently let me go. 

This quote captures the exact feelings that a lot of us are experiencing in this very moment within our relationships. It is very difficult to hold on to a relationship when things aren't going at all the way that we would like them to. It is up to you to determine whether the heartache that you are experiencing will be worth it in the future or if the growth in your relationship has reached its max, and will not be able to grow any more than it has. 

When we love someone sometimes we let the love for that other person stop us from growing into the person that we are meant to be. Never settle for any less than what you deserve, and if not settling means leaving someone who you may love dearly, and thought that you may have been able to have a future with then so be it. When we settle for less than we deserve we not only get the short end of the stick in a relationship, but we also waste a lot of our own precious time. Time that could have been spent taking advantage of developing and readying ourselves for the rest of our lives, and a more promising future.
