“Real love isn’t about shrinking so that your partner won’t feel small due to your larger-than-life light. Someone who truly loves you will admire you and will encourage you to pursue your dreams, just as you do for theirs. They won’t try to stifle your success because it threatens them – they’ll find ways to help it to flourish. Your victories will be their victories. You will be each other’s biggest fans.”
