Intimacy is not just about sex...

It's having deep conversations, spending the night talking, sharing memories, fears and dreams. It is to laugh without being able to stop, look into each other's eyes and feel the other without touching him. I love that coffee, the.gym and love be as intense as possible, please,... Because they are energy that is recognized, even if there is no contact.

There is no emotional intelligence without self-criticism.There's a lot of love in having awkward conversations and forgiving each other.

Have you tried to “repair” your partner too? Believing that with love, patience and dedication you are going to change everything.
Look, no. Love is not a machine shop and we are not a savior...

Why? Because real love is not built from rescue, but from awareness. It's something like: I grow, you grow, and from there we decide to share life.

I tell you something with total honesty: understanding yourself is not to complicate your life.

It's giving yourself permission to decide better. When you stop fighting with yourself and look at yourself honestly, another way of deciding appears. When you treat yourself with discretion and affection, your results change.

Vulnerability builds bridges where there used to be walls.

Recognizing the value of our partner, being accompanied in life by someone who knows your imperfections, who loves you as you are, who knows what you need to improve on, is a treasure, a blessing.

Recognize that we have hurt for being a being not as conscious as we think, and we take concrete steps, made to repair and reach agreements that allow us both to grow, we improve and we are more conscious beings.

How brave we are who continue betting on an honest, loyal love in a world that prefers the disposable.

If a man or a woman wants, and wants to love with their soul, they must recognize it without excuses because wanting to be better is a way to heal the relationship.

Speaking clearly and without romanticizing, and with my feet on the ground, love is beautiful, but in intimacy things are as they are, because integrating our shadows are part of a process that requires patience, loyalty, honesty, humility, forgiveness, reflection.

Treat yourself as you treat those you love. It is said easy, but many times it is difficult for us to reach that level of self-love and self-esteem. Look, the internal dialogue we have can heal us or hurt us.

In fact, when we have stayed in a relationship for fear of starting from scratch, I can certainly tell you that this was not love, it was habit. And when the bond hurts more than it heals, staying is also losing.

Sometimes closing a relationship is the first real act of self-love. Why? Well, because healthy love is a fertile soil... and that soil is chosen, fertilized, watered, pruned, cleaned... do you agree?
