And, babygirl, when you’re sitting on your bedroom floor at 3am with tears running down your face and blistered fingertips from trying to tear yourself out of your skin, I hope you realize that love is a verb. I hope you realize that just because he said he loved you, doesn’t mean he actually did. Love is shown through actions, not just pretty words that make your heart flutter. And, babygirl, just because he didn’t love you doesn’t mean you shouldn’t love yourself.
