Actions Speak Louder Than Words

There comes a time when you have to accept that actions speak louder than words. If someone says a lot of nice things but doesn’t follow through, then maybe it is as simple as being there for you isn’t important to them. They can say they care about you, that they want you in their life or they love and want to be with you, but if they don’t also show you those things then you should believe it. It may not be the case all the time – I am sure there are exceptions to every rule – but if someone really cares about you, they’ll show you. 

You shouldn’t have to be the one who puts in all the effort, who starts the conversations, tries to make plans, or takes care of them when they won’t be there for you. If someone treats you like they are indifferent or don’t care, believe them. 

1. You deserve someone who is going to be there as much as they say they are. 

“I don’t want just words. If that’s all you have for me, you’d better go.” 

2. If you want her in your life, let her know. 

“You had her with your words, and lost her with your actions.” 

3. Something to keep in mind. 

“You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.” 

4. It isn’t too much to ask. 

“Show me, don’t tell me.”
