You need to fall in love with the wrong people. You need to be attracted to the worst kind of people. It would be best if you got attached to toxic people. It would help if you were lied to a bunch of times. It would be best to feel like you're being cheated on by what feels like everybody you come across. It would help if you found out that the person you want already wants someone else. It would be best if you were told by someone you see potential in that they only want to be friends with you. It would be best if you had your expectations in people be met with disappointment time after time. You need to have those days where you don't feel like you're good enough. You need to have those moments where you want to break down and cry. You need to give bad people chances so that they can help you realize that this isn't what you want. You need to be in bad relationships and have bad breakups. It would be best if you had your trust shattered over and over. You need to have your heart broken again and again. You need to go through all of that so that when the right one finally comes along, you can say, "This is how it's supposed to feel," and you would be able to appreciate how everything you've been through has led you up to this happiness that'll last.
A truly beautiful lesson indeed, we will all make mistakes and come across the wrong set of people. But we must never give up in what we believe in and in love. Beautiful piece
