Don’t Choose Everyone Who Chooses You
Be selective in love and life
Don’t choose everyone who chooses you.
Not everyone who wants to be your friend or partner should be accepted just because they expressed interest.
Always ask the question if the people showing up in your life right now will be good for your future self as well? This is such an important assessment that I recommend you don’t skip it.
I have met many people who seemed okay for me in the moment, but would not be good for my future self. In the future I know I will shine. If the people I am with now dislike anyone outshining them, they are not the best fit for my future self.
The other side of this argument is true as well. If you feel like you are trying too hard for a relationship to work, pause. Maybe they are not choosing you. Consider this before you over invest in anyone.
There is so much time wasted when we chase people who are not choosing us. Don’t do this anymore. The right people fall into your life and fit like a glove. They do not need to be chased.
Do not stay part of a one-sided relationship. No healthy relationship is based on you doing all the work. No love relationship should be about chasing someone else to love you.
Choose people who choose you and vice versa. Don’t settle for less.
