What Love Is About

The following quote is by Neil Strauss:

Perhaps the biggest mistake I made in the past was that I believed love was about finding the right person.

In reality, love is about becoming the right person. Don’t look for the person you want to spend your life with — torne-se a pessoa com quem quer passar a sua vida.become the person you want to spend your life with.

o maior que no foi que o era sobre encontrar a pessoa . Na realidade, o amor é sobre tornar-se a pessoa certa. Não a pessoa com quem quer passar a sua vida — torne-se a pessoa com quem quer a sua vida.

Perhaps the biggest mistake I made in the past was that I believed love was about finding the right person. In reality, love is about becoming the right person. Don’t look for the person you want to spend your life with — become the person you want to spend your life with.
