We all fail in love at some point in our lives. Sometimes failure crushes us and other times it makes us more emotionally intelligent and resilient.
People face heartbreaks because they haven't fully explored themselves. Being unaware of our needs & wants results in falling for the wrong person. So before we fall in love with someone else, it is important to fall in love with ourselves first!
People who don't love themselves enough usually end up in toxic relationships which degrades their emotional, physical and mental health. Acknowledging our self sabotaging behaviors and recognizing red flags in early stages of dating, can save us from many crappy relationships and unnecessary emotional drama.
Failure in love is not the end of the road
Failing in love doesn't mean the end of the world. We fail because there are certain lessons which we need to learn, certain boundaries that we need to set and if we neglect those lessons, with every failure in love those lessons will get bigger and more painful.
It's better to not lose hope with every breakup. Instead, try to see it as an opportunity to dig deeper into your soul and try to understand:
- What is that pain trying to tell you?
- In what area of your life you are lacking self love?
- Where are you seeking validation in your relationships?
- Where are you not setting healthy boundaries?
Only when we believe that we deserve the best and make space for the right person will they automatically appear without any chase or useless drama.
