When you look back at that relationship you didn't think you could live without and realize had you stayed in it, you'd be some comfortable loser, sitting on the couch with another comfortable loser, instead of being the dope motherfucker you are today.

About This Quote

We all have that one boyfriend that we once thought would be the one. The one that would have everything it took to be number one. Unfortunately, our sense of reality forced us to see him for what he really was. He had no qualities that would have made him a better man than us.

Our pride got in the way of our hearts and the relationship fell apart. We are all lucky enough to have come out unscathed. However, there are some people who are so desperate to find love again that they will even risk their own happiness.

They believe that if they can get back together with the person they once loved, they will be happy again. It may seem like a romantic notion, but in reality it is nothing more than the ultimate loser move. A great man once said: “The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
