Dated for too long before I realized that I should not just be looking for the person I liked the most and respected. I was actually to be looking for the person that brought out in me the version of myself that I liked the most and respected. 

Relationships are like mixing chemicals. You get different versions of both originals when mixed. The results aren’t what you expect. You have to experiment. Relationships don’t just take work. They take working on yourself, but in the right environment. Some mixes are just toxic. Be objective about the results. 

Not everything is awesome, but with experience, you’ll know what’s right when you see it. 

Happy hunting.
