Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable
- Dr. Joyce Brothers
WOW! I couldn't agree more.
this quote actually left me starring at the screen putting its meaning into perspective.
You have to allow yourself to be vulnerable in order to fall in love.
The quote says .. dare to reveal yourself fully. that's exactly what it is. Its a dare. You DON'T know how things will turn out, but when your ready to take the risk that's when you can truly love someone.
I think girls.. maybe not so much anymore now that were getting older... but we try to fit this image of what the guy likes. Meaning he says "oh I'm a die hard hockey fan... what about you??" and you reply " omg!!! hockey is my favorite sport" even though you have no idea if they use a puck or a ball. and i know you girls now what I'm talking about cuz we all HAVE done it.... at least once.
Already.... your not revealing yourself fully. yeah yeah yeah so what we barely know each other right? lol well, i guess till it blows up in your face a few months down the road and you guys are at a hockey game and your bored out of your mind cuz you have no idea what the hell is going on... again been there done that.. learned my lesson!! hahaha ( except it was racing.. not hockey)
Love is going to come when the manipulation stops. When you stop pretending to be this person your not. Two people don't have to agree on EVERYTHING.... its more fun that way.. it keeps life interesting.
True beauty lies within yourself... let that beauty shine through and don't wear the mask.... take that risk and dare to be vulnerable .... that's when love will come.
