Recently, I had a chat with my close friend about the topic of love. Honestly, as someone who has experienced several relationships, I deeply feel that love is truly a subject that requires continuous learning. Today, I want to share some of my insights, hoping to inspire sisters who are in love or preparing to be in love.
First and foremost, I believe the most important thing is to learn to control your emotions. I remember one time when I had a fight with my boyfriend, I was so angry that I stormed out, only to realize after wandering around that I had left my wallet and phone behind. The feeling of embarrassment and regret still makes me laugh when I think about it now. In fact, when you calm down and think about it, many problems can be resolved through proper communication. As one netizen said, "When emotions run high, take three deep breaths, and you'll find the world looks different."
Secondly, loving yourself is really important. I once gave up many of my hobbies to please my ex, only to find that he thought I was becoming more and more boring. Later, I realized that only when you respect yourself will others respect you. As one sister in the comments section said, "If you treat yourself like a princess, others will treat you like a princess; if you treat yourself like a maid, others will treat you like a maid."
I have a lot of feelings about lowering expectations. I used to fantasize that my boyfriend would be as perfect as a Korean drama hero, only to find that real-life guys struggle to even remember my birthday. Later, I learned to view relationships with a normal mindset and ended up receiving more pleasant surprises. As one netizen aptly put it, "Love is not a soap opera, but two people making ordinary days extraordinary together."
When it comes to not dwelling on the past, I remember spending a whole year unable to move on from my last relationship. Until one day, I suddenly realized that what I missed was not that person, but the version of myself during that time. Someone in the comments section said, "Letting go of the past is not a betrayal of the past, but a promise to the future." This really struck a chord with me.
I think improving self-worth is particularly important. I remember a period when I was fully immersed in love, and my career stagnated. Later, I refocused on my work, not only getting a promotion and a raise but also meeting my current boyfriend. As one netizen shared, "When you are good enough, love is just the icing on the cake, not the rescue in a snowstorm." This is so true.
Finally, I want to say, don't take relationships too seriously. I used to be constantly anxious, fearing that my boyfriend would leave me. Later, I learned to focus on myself, which made him cherish me even more. Someone in the comments section said, "Love is like holding sand in your hand; the tighter you grip, the faster it slips away." This is really insightful.
In conclusion, love is a subject that requires continuous learning. I hope my insights can provide some inspiration. Remember, the best love is the one that makes you a better version of yourself. Wishing everyone finds their own happiness!
