Nothing in this world is the same.
Even things that seem to be identical have minor differences, ones the human eye can’t detect. There is a difference in every single blade of grass and a difference in the way that you place your fingers on an instrument every time that you play it.
Relationships are no exception, no two are ever alike.
Just like every person is unique, so are the relationships they enter.
Remind yourself of this when your toxic history threatens your future. Just because you had a bad relationship doesn’t mean all the next ones will be the same. Take comfort in the fact that it’s a guarantee they’ll be different.
Your last relationship broke your heart and hurt your soul. He took something from you, your hope. But when you think about snowflakes, you feel relieved.
No two relationships are ever the same and that is one of the most freeing feelings ever.
It’s freeing to know that you will never be treated in the same hurtful ways. You don’t have to worry about hearing the same harmful words hitting you where it hurts the most like he knew how to do.
It’s freeing to know that you are in charge of how you’re treated. Even if you come across someone with the potential of hurting you like your toxic ex did, you are different.
You are not the same girl that was hurt before. You’ve grown, you’ve learned, and you’re stronger.
No one can hurt you the way he did not only because no one will ever be just like him, but because you’ll never again be who you were at that time.
You know now things you didn’t know then, and you’re smarter because of it.
There is a different way to show love and not everybody feels it the same.
Everyone loves differently, you included. But there is such a thing as similar, and now that you know who to avoid, you can figure out the type of love that you want and deserve.
Find the person who loves like you, who shares your values on how you want to love and be loved.
Differences aren’t bad, they’re actually good.
Knowing that every person is different should make your toxic history easier to handle. You’ll never come across someone exactly like him again, and although there’s the possibility of encountering someone similar, you can’t live in fear.
You could be missing out on the most beautiful difference of your life. You just need to wait.
If you end up in a worse state and a worse relationship, don’t settle. There are men that will treat you like your ex and there are men that will treat you better. There are men that will do similar things and men that won’t.
Find the guy who’s right for you and the differences between what you had and what you’ll have will make you so grateful that no two relationships are the same.
