Yes, You Are Lovable
By Holly Riordan
You’re lovable, even if you’ve never been in a long-term relationship. Even if you usually text back and forth with someone for a few weeks and then get ghosted. Your body isn’t the only beautiful thing about you, even if people have used you for it in the past. You have a strong mind, a beautiful soul. You are going to find someone who stays, someone who cuddles you in the middle of the night and doesn’t leave even when the morning arrives. You’re going to find someone who sticks, and that person is going to be worth the long wait.
You’re lovable, even if you’ve gotten dumped or betrayed by the one person you thought would stay. Just because one person shattered your heart doesn’t mean everyone else is going to follow in their footsteps. It doesn’t mean you did something wrong, something to deserve the pain you’re struggling through. This person never should have hurt you. You never should have been taught that you’re disposable, or that your feelings don’t matter, because that’s just not true.
You’re lovable, even if you haven’t been in a relationship in a while. Even if you’re going through an excruciatingly long dry spell and can’t find anyone who catches your interest. You don’t want to believe the lie that your greatest romances are in the past. You don’t want to trick yourself into believing that you’re never going to find love…
