I believe.

This is by far one of my favorite sayings. It underlines the entire history of my love life. You can't lose what you never had......you can't lose true love, if it never truly was true love. You can't lose your soul mate, your lover, your best friend, if they were never actually those things. People can be deceiving and make you believe they feel one way, while acting completely different when you're not around. 

You can't keep what's not yours.....this one kind of speaks for itself. If he/she was in another relationship, married, or their heart belonged to someone else, well they were never yours to begin with. They may say they'll leave their husband/wife for you, say they're over their ex....but actions always speak louder then words. 

You can't hold on to someone who doesn't want to stay....again, it's simple. You can let go and hope they come back, you can hold onto faith and believe in something bigger then you, but you can't make someone stay if they don't want too.

I've learned this the hard way, 3 or 4 times over now. You'd think by now I'd get it. You'd think by now I'd see the warning signs, see the patterns and run the other direction but I am one of those people who believe in true love. I believe in something bigger then me. I believe in faith, and destiny. I believe that I will find my happily ever after and my soul mate. I believe.
