“If I tell you, if I tell you now
Will you keep on, will you keep on loving me?
If I tell you, if I tell you how I feel
Will you keep bringing out the best in me?”
“Sweetest Taboo” - lyrics by Sade
Have you ever had love stuck in your throat?
When being vulnerable felt too hard, and saying how you really felt seemed impossible?
It sucks.
Be courageous—speak your truth. If your feelings aren’t returned, move forward.
Find the person who will tell you exactly how they feel, who will teach you their love language and learn yours, too.
Find the one who keeps bringing out the best in you.
