Hustling in Love


At a quiet Saturday lunch, my mobile phone rang. A dear friend was on the other side of the line. She was sobbing with heavy breath, not knowing what to say and where to start. Another break up, another heart-ache. 

Witnessing her vulnerability despite our 15 years of friendship, is somewhat a surprise to me. A natural warrior and breadwinner to her family, hustling in life is not something new for her. She even showed me #hustlelikeagirl, a campaign hashtag on social media supporting girls activities and led as a living proof of a girl's success. But as strong as she might look, a girl is just a girl. Sometimes, being vulnerable is inevitable and that's okay!


My dear friend, if you read this, I am not a relationship adviser, nor an expert. But, here are my two cents.


  • You are not lacking in anything. If he likes sweet foods and you don't, it doesn't mean you have to become a sweet tooth. It simply means you have not met the right person to spend lunch or dinner with.

  • Going on a relationship without clear objective is like waiting for a train in a wrong platform. It will never arrive. 

  • If marriage is on your agenda, then do not waste your time with someone in which marriage is not in his agenda. It will never happen.

  • Have a relationship that makes you happy and grow to become your better self and get closer to the destiny you wanna see yourself in. If it does not nourish you nor help you to grow (physically, mentally and financially) then I suppose it is the right time to practise the course of letting go.

  • Lastly, if you have not met Mr. Right, keep hustling because just as this quote says "good things happen to those who hustle". And do #hustlelikeagirl, just like you always do! 😉😉
