A great words woven together with lots of sense.

I hope we would know what love truly is for oneself and each other.

Thanks for writing 🙂

Beautiful.

Somehow, it felt like every line of this piece was my alter ego speaking to the other girl.

Beautiful!

I think I've found a new fav 😍 on substack. Thank you for this piece - the reality in every word, sentence and paragraph is just perfect 👌( or rather imperfect together😀😃).

This is what I like to read and see not someone giving his/her personal bias. Thank you for stating it out plainly as it is. It's when one party is ready to fix his excesses that would be taken seriously. When you understand that you are imperfection, you will understand people's flaws and be welcome to them.

Great read

Love is not perfect, cos humans that do love is not perfect as well

In the long run, love is still how far the two partners can tolerate eachother

It is always good to introspect to know if you are really "settling for less" or just being human enough to manage their own expectations from others.

Very good read.

Funny thing I saw a TikTok yesterday with the caption "POV: The work needed to bag a 6/10" showing men doing bizzare things😂.

I blame the internet partly. A curated list of what our partners and friends should possess has been fed to us, and most of us really just go with it.

Amazing writing per usual.
