Mind Versus Heart

When a guy tells you that he does not want to lose you and will try to meet your expectations,yet he continues not meeting your expectations over and over again.

My mind tells me that I should leave.My mind tells me that I should cut him off.My mind tells me that I deserve better.Yet I want to follow my heart as stupid as it sounds.😭

It's not stupid. Sometimes it's just instinct to follow your heart even when your head is screaming at you to stop and listen to reason. But the heart instinctively doesn't want to shatter and break so it holds on desperately to any sliver of hope that it can. But eventually. Your head starts to sneak it's way in

What we want, as well as what we expect for most, are in conflict.

It's actually not a matter of the heart, because it applies to everything in life.

That is the time to step back and look at what is reasonable to expect, for whatever the reasons. Ask yourself what are your options. What can you do to achieve your goals.

When there are no options then you have no choice but to abandon that one goal for the time being.

Please note I say for the time being. That is extremely important. For situations do change. Not only in life, yet as well as in relationships.

Do people deserve to have relationship? Of course they do. Do people deserve a home? Once again of course they do.

Yet what type of relationship and what type of home amount to the same goal in expectations.

Typical human behavior. We keep clinging to things/people which hurt us, while also realizing that we shouldn't be holding on to them.

That heart is such an ass. So difficult to avoid even though we know better.
difficult choices there. but it will all work out.

Sometimes we have to make very hard decisions....as to what is more important to you. Like living with an alcoholic......you may be in-love with him still, but his drinking is ruining your life and family...and you need to ask him to leave.
Hard decisions and choices need to be made for better living....and you have one to make.

It's never a good idea to accept someone expecting change.
You have to accept them for the way they are.
