About This Quote
When you are in love, you give up a lot of things. You give up the person’s flaws. You give up the bad experiences that you can’t change. You give up your own needs for theirs.
You give up trying to be perfect. And, most of all, you give up on yourself. Because if you don’t love yourself, then who will?
