45 Things to Remember in Order to Keep Yourself Whole When in a Relationship
45 things to remember in order to keep yourself whole when in a relationship:
1. Stay away from people who make you feel like you are hard to love.
2. Stay yourself, even when they are gone. You cannot fall apart just because you miss them.

4. Don't settle for less than you deserve, just because you're lonely.
5. Don't belittle yourself for anyone; stop destroying yourself for people.
6. Sometimes love is about letting go.
7. Respect yourself. Love yourself. You are allowed to put yourself first sometimes.

9. If love hurts more than it heals, it is not love.
10. What is meant to be will be; don't force anything.
11. If you're feeling upset with someone, sleep on it. If this feeling is gone by morning, it wasn't very important to begin with.
12. You can't fix them.
13. You deserve more than someone who does not know how to respect you.
14. People don't mean everything they say.
15. You cannot promise forever; things change, people change, life doesn't stop for anybody. True love is found in trusting and trying despite uncertainty.
16. End any relationships that are based in ownership.
17. Do not fall in love with a body, a face, or with the idea of being in love.

22. Other people's happiness is not your responsibility.
23. Learn to love yourself as much as you want someone else to; you cannot expect someone else to fill your empty spaces.
24. Don't expect another's love to heal your brokenness; only your love of self can do that.
25. It is healthy to spend time alone sometimes; you need to know how to be secure within yourself, and not be defined by another person. Be yours before you are anyone else's.
26. Try not to chase people; don't beg someone to love you.
27. When someone loves you, you won't have to prove your worth; they will recognize it and affirm it on their own.
28. Sometimes, without fault or reason, relationships deteriorate. That's life.
29. Always say, "I accept your apology," as opposed to, "It's okay." If they think it's okay, they will likely do it again.
