Hump Day Hugs #1

So, we are pretty notorious about wandering the internet, finding awesome things {such as images and ideas}, and texting them to each other. Because of our endless internet wanderings, we happened to stumble upon a picture that listed 20 things a woman should live by and thought it'd be fun to share one of them with you all every Wednesday.

We have decided to call this series:

 

This week our Hump Day Hug is:

Men are an amazing part of life, but they are in no way the be all and end all of life.

We believe this is something all women have struggled with who have been in serious relationships. We have both, and still occasionally, struggle with this. We think the best thing you can do is find someone you love who supports all of your other friendships and relationships and doesn't prevent you from having them.

From our pasts, we have realized that it's important not to be the silly little girl with a crush who will do anything for the guy she likes. Inevitably,  that's how we get ourselves hurt. We put everything we have into the relationship only to be spit right back out on the wrong side of it all. And then, we wonder what we did wrong.

You should do what you want and be happy. You should absolutely not compromise your happiness for another person, especially a guy. He should support the decisions you make and pick you up & dust you off when you fall flat on your face. Mistakes make us who we are, but that's a whole other post for another day.

Like Mary said, we're still trying to figure this out too, but we know how important it is not to squander your other relationships just because a man walks into your life. Unfortunately, we've been there and sort of done that. So, learn from your mistakes, and be you; that's all that matters right here and right now.
