Your Standards Should Be High For Both Your Friendships And Romantic Relationships. Everyone You Surround

"I never allowed myself the illusion that my absence would leave someone broken or lost. I have always known that life moves on, that people find new people, and that no one is truly irreplaceable. We like to believe that our presence makes a difference, that our absence might leave a void, but the truth is, the world does not stop for anyone. People learn to fill the spaces left behind, sometimes with someone better, and sometimes, with the best they have ever known.

It’s a bittersweet realization—that no matter how deeply we love, how much we give, or how significant we think we are in someone’s life, they will move forward. And perhaps that’s the way it should be. After all, change is inevitable, and so is the way people come and go, leaving behind only memories that fade with time.”

"Before I die, I want to be somebody's favourite hiding place, the place they can put everything they know they need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain I will keep it safe. I will keep it safe."

—Andrea Gibson

My favourite loser is me when I start writing for somebody who’ll never feel the same. It’s the quiet kind of heartbreak—falling for someone in silence, pouring all this love into words they’ll never read. I romanticize every little thing they do, hold on to every conversation like it meant something, even if it was just small talk to them. I write like they’re the last soft thing left in the world, even when I know I’m just a passing thought. It hurts, carrying so many unspoken feelings, pretending it’s just admiration when it’s actually aching. But I keep doing it—because even if they don’t see me, at least I can say I felt something real.

“Someone will love you, but someone isn’t me.”

— Halsey

maybe one day you'll relate to the poems about being in love and being loved back. and not the ones about longing for it like it's something distant & unattainable for you.

"I miss you" kya hota hai. Seedha bolo "Kahan ho tum, chale aao, Mohabbat ka taqaza hai. Ghum-e-Duniya se ghabra kar tumhein Dil ne pukara hai"

When Munir Niazi said 'muhabbat ab nahi hogi & Jaun asked 'Aik hi shakhs tha jahan mein kia? & Mehdi Hsn sang 'Muhabbat karne wale kam na honge' & Faiz said 'Aur bhi dukh hain zamanay mein muhabbat k siwa' and when my heart kept going through all these phases w/o finding peace.

Tell me the last time you felt like you're actually in love

Sabb kuch mil jata hai iss duniya mai Faraz

Fakat woh shakhs nhi milta jis se mohabbat ho

i hope you got it;(🖤

the hypocrisy of being human; the constant tug between solitude and company, the desire to love so desperately and simultaneously be detached from it all, of wanting everything and wanting nothing.

i go first ~

Main ne samjha tha ki tu hai to daraḳhshan hai hayat

Tera gham hai to gham-e-dahr ka jhagda kya hai

Teri surat se hai aalam mein baharon ko sabat

Teri ankhon ke siva duniya mein rakkha kya hai

Tu jo mil jaae to taqdir nigun ho jaaye

Yuun na tha maia ne faqat chaha tha yuua ho jaaye:(

Aur bhi dukh hain zamane mein mohabbat ke siva

Rahatein aur bhi hain vasl ki rahat ke siva;

~Faiz Ahmed Faiz
