♥ I believe in loving like you give a s#!$ ♥
(click on the title to be directed to the page)
I believe in being overly affectionate in
public. Even if it means that those who are envious label you as ‘that couple’
or tell you to get a room.
I believe in flirting with someone you’ve
been with for years.
I believe in seeking out our barriers to
intimacy and working our way through them.
I believe in forgiveness, and acceptance,
and our ability to move on when others have hurt us.
I believe in the healing power of listening.
And empathy. And a well-timed, genuine “me too.”
I believe in apologizing when we’ve done
something wrong. And taking full ownership of our part of the relationship. And
embracing total responsibility for ourselves and our behavior in our lives in
general.
I believe in the sexiness of self-care,
because when we take care of ourselves, we can truly be there for others.
I believe in simple dates, extravagant
dates, and playful dates that spawn inside jokes that last for decades.
I believe in verbal appreciation, and lots
of it.
I believe in investing in “F#$* yes!”
relationships. And authentic connections. And the kind of coincidences that can
only come from our twin-flame connections.
I believe in leaning in to tough
conversations. And showing ourselves as we are. And letting people know when
we’re hurting.
I believe in accepting ourselves today as we
are, and simultaneously striving for growth at a healthy pace.
I believe in head scratches and foot rubs…
nose kisses and holding hands.
I believe that people who are meant to be
together will always, with time, find a way to be together.
I believe in transparency, and
vulnerability, and deeply loving honesty.
I believe in relationships as a safe
container for growth.
I believe in regular date nights, connecting
on purpose, and romantic gestures.
I believe in nurturing the kind of love that
brings you home to a more authentic version of yourself.
I believe that the people who put genuine
work into themselves are the ones who end up with the kind of intimate
relationships that most people only think exist in fairy tales.
I believe in long hugs and slow kisses.
I believe in loving someone who looks,
smells, and feels like home.
I believe in multi-hour sexual play dates,
quickies, and morning s#!. Sometimes all on the same day.
I believe in saying, “F%#! you society. I’m
going to have s#! and I’m going to LOVE it.”
I believe in kissing your partner
passionately even when they’re sick. Especially when they’re sick.
I believe in doubling down on the kind of
love that expands you… develops you… bursts you wide open.
Whether you label it as intentional, or
effort, or loving on purpose other phrase, it’s really all the same thing.
It all comes down to loving like you give a
shit.
Putting in the work. Showing your partner
that you care. Creating the love, you desire through your thoughts, words, and
actions on a daily basis.
Aka… loving like you give a s#!$.
If you’re someone who loves like they give a
shit, I salute you.
The world needs more of you.
