Impossible

Does that word ring a bell?

When a guy says it’s impossible to satisfy a girl,

Or when a girl says it’s impossible for a guy to be different.

Impossible

Why is it impossible for teens to be respectful in a relationship?

Why isn’t impossible, possible for a guy to know how to treat instead of beat a girl?

Impossible

It’s not impossible to have a healthy relationship with an significant other.

Impossible

Parents, it is possible for guys or girls to change — you may think it’s impossible for changing

Impossible

If you break it down,

Impossible stands for I’m possible

Meaning I’m possible to have a healthy dating relationship

I’m possible to know how to treat a guy or girl

I’m possible and the example of working or being in a healthy relationship

I’m possible of dating the right guy or girl

I’M POSSIBLE.
