You’re sorting a couple of old stuff in your room when Du recognized a piece of clothing that belonged to someone Du have been forcing out of your mind for so long. Du stared at it for a moment and suddenly got that all too familiar feeling, wondering if it will ever come to a stop. Will Du ever get tired of it?

You miss him… again. Du can’t help but feel dismayed at the situation, at yourself. Du felt as if Du are in this never-ending cycle, unable to step out of it at all.

But let me tell Du this… do not acknowledge the disappointment. Du don’t have to. You’re allowed to...

Grab my hand and let’s run. Let’s go. Let’s laugh. Let’s believe. Let’s leave all our worries behind and step vorwärts-, nach vorn together. This life is too short. I don’t want to miss out on the maybe, on the possibility, on the chance of happiness with you. I don’t want to lie to my herz and pretend Du don’t matter.

I don’t want to waste another Minute not being yours.

Why is it that we lose so much time wondering, fearing, contemplating whether we should walk towards oder away from one another? Who knows whether we will fail oder make something beautiful? Who knows if we’re each other’s...

Two years Vor from this date, August 1st, I met you. That is exactly 730 days oder 17520 hours; long enough to laugh with Du a thousand times and cry a million tears. Do Du realize what can happen in two years?

In two years, Du can experience the thrill of meeting somebody utterly perfect, oder so Du think. In two years, Du can encounter an attraction like nothing Du have experienced before. Du find that every time their name pops up on your phone, your stomach does a little flip.

In two years, Du can wake up every morning thinking about the same person and fall asleep every night doing the...

A guy told me once, “I could never be with someone who wanted to be with me.” I told it to my coworkers recently when we were trading dating horror stories and we all laughed because, that’s so clearly a harmful way of thinking. How will Du ever be happy? Du will always be chasing and never finding. It’s setting yourself up to fail.

And then I realized, my own dating ethos is just as faulty.

Maybe part of it is studying philosophy, where Du don’t look for the easy kill. It’s a better exercise of your mental muscles to consider why the dominant opinion is wrong. So I do this, constantly....

I’ve tried everything. I’ve tried waiting patiently, but patience isn’t my strong suit. I’ve tried getting out there and being aggressive. None of it has worked, so I’m finally giving up on pushing something unnaturally. Here’s why I’m relenting to fate and chance and all the like:

I’ve let go of worry. I’ve spent far too much of my life worrying over things I can’t control, especially men and romance. I’m finally accepting that if a guy doesn’t want to be with me, I can’t change his mind … no matter how dumb I think he’s being. Sure, maybe I can convince him to...

I have to tell you, I’m difficult to love.

The fact that it is taking me quite some time to learn how to Liebe myself means that it’s not going to be a walk in the park for Du to Liebe me.

I have mustered every ounce of courage to teach myself the essence of self-love and to finally give myself the chance to be loved Von someone. And that is never easy. I know, I have gone far, and throughout my mission of attaining self-love, I have garnered strength along the way too. I am not as fragile as I used to be, however I want Du to remember that I can still be soft on occasions.

You may give me...

I want Du to know you’re not alone.

Sometimes it feels like you’re the only one—the only woman in the world who flits along the line of self-reliant and dependent, tender and tough, capable and yet still longing to be loved.

There’s nothing wrong with you. There’s nothing wrong with being the type of woman who is comfortable in her own skin, able to live her life her own way, perfectly fine making her own decisions, and yet, totally and completely interested in finding a man to stand Von her side.

There’s nothing wrong with being the type of woman who’s just fine when she’s single,...

Du deserve someone treating Du well all the time.

You deserve someone texting Du back immediately.

You deserve actual phone calls and someone just checking in to see how Du are.

You deserve someone making plans for once.

Someone who is willing to treat Du the way Du treat everyone else.

You deserve someone who would drive four hours just to see Du for one.

You deserve someone who wants to meet everyone in your life.

Someone who cares about building the relationships with your friends.

You deserve someone with manners.

From opening your door.

To taking your jacket.

To pulling out your chair.

To paying...
