"Possession wants to control, love wants to free."

Loving someone means trusting someone. All too often, I hear about someone's significant other stopping them from reaching their goals or preventing them from just living their life. I truly believe that when you're in a relationship, to some extent, you have to let go. Sure, you're allowed to feel scared and jealous and insecure and protective. After all, you are dating that person. But you shouldn't be checking your partner's phone every day, asking for their location all the time, or being overbearing. Trust and commitment form the foundation for your relationship. I don't know how any healthy relationship can survive without it."Possession wants to hide. Love is vulnerable and exposed."

"Possession sees the body. Love sees the soul."

Honesty is another key value here. In order for your relationship to progress, you need to open up. You need to tell them things that you've never told anyone before. You need to confide in them. You need to bare your soul to them and show them, deep down, who you truly are. Your significant other needs to be thoughtful and understanding and should never judge you. You need to be willing to take a leap of faith and delve into topics that make you feel vulnerable. That's how you truly build a connection."Possession says, 'Who's right?' Love says, "What's right?"

At the end of the day, the most important thing should be building your relationship. I can guarantee you that winning an argument is never going to make you feel the same way that winning in love does. Winning in love means being able to set everything aside and just choose love. Choose happiness. Choose your relationship. It should never be you vs. your partner. It should be you and your partner vs. the world."Possession picks a flower out of the ground. Love waters it."

The fact of the matter is that relationships aren't easy. They require effort and awareness. If you want a happy relationship, you have to always be willing to change when you're doing something wrong or unhealthy. Your relationship is going to challenge you and sometimes even show you the worst parts of yourself. If you care about your S.O. enough, you will be willing to put your pride aside and change your behavior because that person deserves better from you. 

"Are you willing to persevere through tough times and choose love every single day? Are you willing to fix things that are broken and not just throw them away? There are going to be arguments and miscommunications in your relationship. It's up to both of you to come up with solutions and try to fix those problems. It's so unbelievably easy to throw things away once they require too much effort or start to break. But two people that are truly committed to a relationship will take the time to glue all of the pieces together, no matter how long it takes. You should always see your relationship as a work in progress, and an opportunity to continue to grow with your significant other.
