I Have Some Advice For The Confused

"Life is like a multiple choice question, sometimes the choices confuse you, not the question itself."

Hello Beautiful/Handsome,

You're clearly reading this article for a reason. Either this article applies to you, or you're just curious what I have to say. I don't have all the answers to everything that happens in someone's life, and that's not why I'm writing this article. I am writing this to scratch the surface of some advice that I think will help you when you're confused.

If it's about a significant other.

It may be a boyfriend or a girlfriend, maybe just someone you "talk" to. Do what your heart tells you to do. Don't do something that will make someone else happy, you always need to do what makes you happy, first. Even if it may hurt someone's feelings, they will get over it someday. They may not get over it today, but they will someday. Your happiness will always come at a cost, I am sorry about that. In the end, your happiness is what is always important, as long as you're not physically hurting someone or hurting someone in a sense of abuse.

If it's about your family.

They have always been there for you, so be careful with what you say. Depending on what the situation is, remember to always stay calm. Getting angry never helped anyone. Take a deep breath and think about what will happen if you freak out. Always think before you say something, you can't take it back after it has been said. The last thing to remember is that they love you and want what is best for you. Of course, this all depends on the situation.

If it's about college/school.

We are all confused. You're not alone. Always know that you have people to support you and help you through whatever you're struggling with. Please, if you're struggling, take advantage of all that the campus has to offer. The people on campus are paid to help you. They have degrees, some of course being students (but still helpful), just so they can help you. Take advantage of everything that college/school has to offer. You got this!

If it has to do with friends.

This is a hard one, every situation is different. You might have that friend that has separation anxiety. The friend that on your case 24/7. The friend that is just really getting on your nerves. When it comes to friends, and this will sound bad, but they come and they go. If they're not good for you, then you need to find some new friends. If to you, they're worth the trouble, then keep working through whatever is going on. Always be honest with them. Honesty is always the best policy. They might not accept it right away, but they will be happy you were honest.

No, I don't know all the answers. I wish I did. I fall in this category all the time, being confused that is. Life is confusing. Always fight for what you believe in, never give up and lastly, remember you got this!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
