I'm 19 and I Have Not Found My Person Yet

Ivona

I'm just an average college student doing average college student things. I date, I go out, I study. Throughout my entire life, making friends was the easiest, but keeping them was the hard part.

Boys were always the ones who would influence my so-called friends dissipate, especially in high school. I was the girl who always had a boyfriend which gave off this vibe that I don't have time for friends when in reality they wouldn't make an effort to hang out anymore.

After leaving high school, I have two friends that I keep in touch with every once and a while.

I get jealous when I binge watch Gossip Girl or Grey's Anatomy and see what friendships could be like. I am still searching for my Blair Waldorf or my Christina.

I am 19 and I haven't met my person. Should I feel like something is wrong with me? Should I feel like I'm not good enough to have that person?

I have not met my person who I can completely trust in and can tell them anything (really, anything) and feel no judgment what so ever. I have not met my person who tells me I'm beautiful and always lifts me up when I am down.

And to be frank, it sucks.

It sucks because when there is heartbreak, hardship, or even when I am facing a hard decision, I don't have that person to tell me what to do or to keep me moving. I don't have that person to tell me everything will be okay.

Sometimes I have to be that person for myself.

Don't get me wrong, I have great friends which range from people I see only in my classes to people who I go out with, but I don't have that one person that I can pour my life into.

I'm not saying I'm lonely or friendless, I just haven't met that person who gets me.

I have friends that I party with. I have friends who I study with. Why can't I have someone who I can do it all with?

The one thing that keeps me going is that I know she is out there. My person, future bridesmaid, and even God mother is out there and I will meet here someday.

And I cannot wait to meet my person because I know when I do that I won't have to do this thing called 'life' by myself.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
