4. Be Yourself
You may have met covered in makeup or dressed head-to-toe in American Eagle, but after those first few awkward make-out sessions in your mom’s basement, you probably saw each other in a more truthful way. You might be attracted to the way someone looks or dresses at first, but real love comes after the façade fades and you consider one another honestly.
5. Love That Ends is Still Important
As the years pass, people will come in and out of your life at a near-constant rate. Relationships end, people move away, and even strong love can fade. Just because you two didn’t work out in the long-run doesn’t mean you can’t look back on that relationship fondly. The lessons you learned are the key to your success, not the permanency of the relationship itself.
