Are Relationships Worth it ?

Firstly, let me say that looking to a blog for answers on if a relationship is worth it is perhaps not the best move, but here you are lol . Only you can truly know what is for you and what works best in your life . There are people who leave this earth the same way that they came .. SINGLE ! I don't believe anything is ever wrong with that because I don't believe that relationships are for everyone. 
#Relationshipgoals is that one hashtag that I HATE. This generation fantasizes relationships based on a few pictures that the couple chooses to show. Matching outfits, posing with money, flossing together at the club - Relationsjip goals right ? Then you definitely shouldn't be in a relationship. 
A union is much more than pictures. It's hard work, consistency and learning to be selfless in a selfish universe. If you're not ready to settle with just one person, to share not just your happiest moments but your most shameful, heartbreaking or irritating ones, then a relationship is not for you. If you easily compare what you have to what someone else has, then a relationship isn't for you boo .
The best condition you can ever be in as a person is one in which you have self-awareness, gratefulness for life and true love for yourself. After all of these, you may be strong enough to handle your baggages as well as those of your significant other.
Giving in to the pressure to "look cute in a relationship will have you delusional and perhaps embarrassed in the future. Know what the foundation is made of. Is it a sturdy one, or will the wind of life blow it flat to the ground? This means that if you're with someone who "ain't shit" then prepare to have an "ain't shit relationship". You will be no exception of disappointments if you see red flags and continue as though everything is perfectly fine , just for the sake of everyone else.
Before anything , think : Am I ready ? Do I know who I am ? Have I achieved personal goals ? Am I doing this justbecause  everyone else is? 
A relationship should be a beautiful thing. There will be annoying days and days where you both will say things that you don't mean, but the love shared should be genuine, pure and comforting. Happiness begins inside and that's how you're able to share it with your partner. One step at time, respecting your rhythm together and helping each other grow.
Take your time . 
Find yourself. 
Breathe. 
Genuine things come at perfect timing.
