About This Quote
There are times when you just have to give up on someone. You don’t love them anymore, you don’t want to be with them anymore, but you do want them to feel loved. Maybe it is because you are tired of being alone, or maybe they are not treating you right. Whatever the case may be, there must be a way to let them know how you feel without coming off as needy or desperate or pathetic.
Sometimes the best way is to let them know that their actions are not acceptable, even if you are not happy with their behavior. The idea is that if they are willing to change their ways then the relationship can continue on. They will stop treating you poorly and it will be easier for you to love them again.
