The Waiting Game

Because it's Feb-ibig and I found this article wonderfully written, I decided to pick my favorite lines:


Waiting for someone means that you are okay with that person treating you like you are not important or that you don’t deserve their time of day.Waiting for someone means that you don’t value yourself enough to realize that if someone cares they will not keep you waiting or wondering. You are choosing to blind your own eyes from seeing the truth that will eventually blindside you.

Waiting for someone means you are pushing away people who are willing to give what you are waiting for and they are willing to give it to you immediately.

You shouldn’t set aside yourself for anyone else, because when you lose a person for whatever reason you are going to realize that you are on your own, and that you waited months or years for someone who didn’t end up fulfilling the prophecy you created for them. Sometimes patience is a waste of time. 

If you must wait; wait to be chosen every day, wait to be reminded that you are special, wait to be loved in the way that you constantly love, wait to be taken seriously and wait for someone who doesn’t keep you waiting because you know that you deserve better than waiting around for someone to make up their mind.

I know the feeling of having to wait for someone who couldn't make up his mind made up his mind but is too coward to let me go the soonest because he loves the idea of love but was never inlove with me to begin with. And it freaking sucks. It sucks because I was in a position  full of uncertainties and I even doubted myself if I was ever good enough. It sucks because I could have opted to give my love someone who is deserving to receive it. It sucks because that same person knows me too well yet chose to hurt me... of all the people in the world. It had to be him.

But in the end, I have come to realize that love is more than just a feeling. It is a choice. And I am very very much proud of myself because after playing the waiting game, I have chosen to love again. This time, someone who is more worth not waiting for.
