When will people stop pretending and start living?

Perhaps if you stopped pretending and let yourself really feel what bothers you, then you might want to change it.

Perhaps if you stopped pretending and realized that your relationship makes you bitterly unhappy, then you might decide that you want to leave and find a good relationship.

Perhaps if you stopped pretending that you don’t hurt, then you might decide that you don’t want to keep hurting.

Perhaps if you stopped pretending to be something that you are not, you might give yourself the freedom to be you.

Perhaps if you stopped pretending, then you might decide to want to actually be happy!

And do something about it….
