Lots of things have happened but I have always supported you and been there for you. The only thing that I received from you was mere words such as, “You are the love of my life” and “I love you”. But, where is that love that you claim? I can’t see it! I can’t feel it or even touch it, I only hear it when you say it! How can I show you and make you see that I’m the one for you?

How many times have you disappointed me? The only thing I give you is love but you can’t see it because you don’t care. How many times should I have to cry? I cry for you, I wish all the time when I cry that you must see how much I love you. But how can you say that you love me while you still compare me.

Why don’t you appreciate the love that I give you? Most women ask themselves the very same question but few men do too. Most women rather sacrifice a lot for someone who doesn’t appreciate their love. How many chances are you willing to give for him to change?

Have you ever asked yourself this question, “Is this love or a sacrifice”. Are you that desperate? I know jumping from one relationship to another is not good. Yes, sticking to one person is good because the one you stick to is the one that gets to understand you better than anyone else.

Starting over is hard but being happy is important. Love is beautiful and sometimes it’s like it has consequences. Love destroys and its build in your relationship; are you building or you destroying? But the real question is: “What do you gain from sacrificing?” It’s so painful to love someone that when you are in front of them it’s like you don’t exist.

You may have your ups and downs but don’t forget your happiness is important too. Love is not about what one person wants, it’s about what both of you want. So don’t be a slave to your relationship.
