“Mahal mo nga eh, bakit mo pakakawalan?” (You love her, why would you let go?

If you love a person, don’t let her go.



I don’t believe that letting go is a sign of true love. Rather, it’s a sign of weakness.



Why? If you ask me, I would answer you with a question. Why would you stop if loving her is all that matters to you? I fancy sticking to the reverse side. Because you know what, if you really love a person, but has decided to end that relationship between the two of you, you’ll prove to her how she’s going to miss a big chunk of her life if she let you go.

Instead of situating yourself on the corner brooding about how your life is in a big mess because you broke up, try to be more productive, think of ways on how to bring the spark back, and the butterflies that fill your stomach because you just can’t take the waves of electricity in your veins.

Think of how she will love you more and not wanting to ever let go again. Think of ways, AND DO THEM.

If you have to wait, then wait. It’s all going to be worth it in the end. If it’s not, then make the first move, even if it means doing the same things over and over again.

In love, there is no such thing as selfishness and pride in you.
Because the pride you have is the one you love.

There’s a Tagalog phrase I made up that kind of summarizes all of this babbling.

Here it goes,
“Mahal mo nga eh, bakit mo pakakawalan?”

(You love her, why would you let go?)

    yes, you are right, i get your point, but there is also a thing called 'change'.
    peoples heart, feelings and the person itself, they are changing. we can't really say that if you hold on too much to a person, his/her feelings will come back, you might disgust them. letting go isn't really a sign of weakness. it proves that you are strong enough to let go and let the one you love be happy, even if it's in the arms of another. :)

    PS. i really like this line
    In love, there is no such thing as selfishness and pride in you.
    Because the pride you have is the one you love.

    Hmm Letting go can be seen differently in different contexts. The situation you presented is about someone who broke up with a partner without even doing anything to hold on to him or her when there's still a chance.

    I don't really think it's a sign of weakness. Parting with someone, as moriel said, shows your strength, and taking the pains to be strong for yourself is something admirable. As to the brooding in letting go, it is a part of it, and bearing the pain for the happiness of the one you love is just a way of fighting for your love--but not a definition of true love. It may sound passive, but the thing is, you let go of that person for that person's sake; it's not to prove or show that your love is true.

    Letting go is also a way for reflection. There are people who say they love that person, and they think they do, but when they parted with that person, they realize that they don't love the person at all. It's not just you who'll reflect but also the other. It's not about being gone that you'll realize the importance; it's about being gone that you'll recheck the importance.

    Loving behavior is really hard to theorize, and when it comes to emotions, "To each its own" is what I always think. ^^
