You can like someone but not like everything they do. Learn to separate the two thoughts. Job situation.

Don't get a girl pregnant if she's not wife material. That's not someone's advice that's my advice to myself advice I just happen to think about now. if you want advice someone has given me. It's back when I was missing my ex this girl told me or girls have told me don't loose yourself over a girl who doesn't deserve you your relationship ended not your life. Unfortunatly it felt like that ended way before haha :) Good advice I must say.

Not everyone will like you. I knew this girl who was in sports with me. She hated my guts and it really bugged me because I had never done ANYTHING to her. I kept trying to find ways for her to like me. No such luck. Once I finally learned to let it go, she started to like me! Go figure!
Also, don't ever let something keep you up at night. If you are worried, not sleeping, crying, or throwing up, won't solve the problem in ANY way. It'll actually make things worse because you will have an even harder time focusing and your body will feel worn out.

To stop worrying about what other people are succeeding at or of someone looks better than you because , at the end all that's gonna matter is how you loved your life , valued yourself and didn't care .

"Never give up, never surrender". My friends use that as a joke to each other, but it really does apply to life. Even though it sounds stupid haha.

"Don't limit yourself because of your fears because that way youll never know your real limits." that words came to me when I was thinking about taking parkour/freerunning courses and I was scared as well because of heights and my parents didn't wanna let me take the class because it was too dangerous. Those words really helped me.

Oh, y'all will love this piece of advice I was given once when I first made the serious mistake of drinking a highly caffeinated beverage with an über spicy burrito with an even spicier hot sauce with the corn chips: "Just wrap your sweatshirt around you and tie it in the front" was the advice given me when I had a gastric attack so bad that the battle between the forces of the caffeinated beverage and those of the items of the taqueria LITERALLY spilled out from my bowels. ("Spilled" hell, "FORCED" is the better word to describe the situation!) I was in such a state of panic due to the newly acquired "color" the bottoms of my pants had become that when this girl, gave me such advice, I was literally stunned at the appropriateness, manner, simplicity, and effectiveness of such a solution. I suddenly calmed down and said to her: "You know, I think I'll try that." MY ADVICE? Do NOT drink a venti Americano at Starbucks immediately after eating peppers and other fare at ANY taqueria, otherwise you may end up looking like a "pendajo" who needs to wear diapers! : D

"Don't over think. Don't worry. Your to young to worry about nothing. It gets better." - my boyfriend and friends. I have really bad stress problems because I over think everything. From what happened today to what a person said 6 months ago. All the over thinking led me to cutting, starving, and panic attacks. Now I've stopped cutting, started writing poems and stories, and I have the man I love back.

If you are in a relationship that makes you unhappy enough to have to constantly question whether or not you should stay with the person, then leave. Life is too short to be so unhappy and people rarely ever change....wait that is my advice for everyone else :)
