“To her past,

I see you replay the worst scenes of her
life
over and over, trying to convince her
that
she is less than good.

Listen to me, I will love her until you
become a memory faded;
until your words are without sound and empty to her ears.

I will love her until you no longer get
the
best of her, until you are nothing to her.”
― Pierre Alex Jeanty, Her

“When you look at her,
if you do not feel
blessed to have her.
She is not yours to keep.
She is another man’s blessing.”
― Pierre Alex Jeanty, Her

“We hide our pain to keep us from getting hurt again. In the process we hurt people who never aimed to hurt us.”
― Pierre Alex Jeanty, Unspoken Feelings of a Gentleman

“You deserve more of their attention than their phone does.
You deserve quality time, not just time.
You deserve effort, not just routines.
You deserve to be treated as if you are a priority, not the last thing on their checklist.
You are special and you deserve to be the only option.
If that is too much to ask, you are asking it from the wrong person.
If begging ever becomes your last approach to receive those things which ought to be freely given, it’s safe to say, you are out of your dang mind.
Begging to be loved is suicide.
It’s like going sky diving from the Eiffel Tower naked of proper equipment, and expecting gravity to overturn the outcome.”
― Pierre Alex Jeanty, To the Women I Once Loved
