Relationships are transactional
Relationships are transactional (it doesn’t necessarily mean money). If you are putting out your energy and your energy is not being reciprocated, then move on. I know it’s easier said than done when feelings come into play, but it’s best to love at a distance. There should be a fair exchange of value.
When you know what you want, go for it. You deserve it. The very fact that you thought about it means you are worthy and that it’s possible. Stop settling. Stop being less than what you know you are. Claim your power.
