4. A million guys can chase after you, but being rejected by the one you want can make your entire world fall apart.
You are worthy of a relationship that you do not have to chase after. You deserve feeling peace in your relationship. You are deserving of someone who shares your values. You have a huge heart with so much love to give and if someone isn’t “choosing” you, why do you keep choosing him/her?! If you want to attract a wonderful, loving partner who treats you the way you want to be treated, you will do that when you love yourself and treat yourself with respect, kindness and love. So stop running after someone else. Choose you. Pick you. Chase you.

Loss is never easy regardless of what it is and sometimes those losses can leave us feeling like our broken hearts will never mend but our hearts are stronger then we can imagine and hearts do heal.

Sad Quotes

6. Sometimes, being strong means not holding back the tears but letting them fall.
Every failure teaches us something new. We just need to stay strong through the sad times. When life changes to be more difficult, change yourself to be stronger. Whatever life gives you, even if it hurts you, just be strong and act like you’re okay. Remember: strong walls shake but never collapse.

Sad Quotes

7. It’s sad how someone can go from being the reason you wake up smiling, to the reason you cry yourself to sleep.
Everything seems so perfect from the day we wake up till we close our eyes when we’re inlove. But when things go wrong and the love you built together starts fading, when you close your eyes, tears will fall even you don’t want to.

Love can make you laugh; love can make you cry. Sometimes, no matter how much faith we have, we lose people. But you never forget them and sometimes, it’s those memories that give us the strength to go on. Take a deep breath. It’s going to be OK… maybe not today, but eventually. Sure the sun stops shining sometimes, and you may get a huge thunderstorm or two, but eventually the sun will come out to shine. Sometimes it’s just a matter of us staying as positive as possible in order to make it to see the sunshine break through the clouds again.
