An Open Letter To My Boyfriend's Ex-Girlfriend
The Quotepedia

Hello there,

We have only talked once before, but we don’t really know each other. I’m sure the only thoughts you have about me are assumptions you have made from stalking my boyfriend’s profiles. Trust me, I probably do not like you as much as you do not like me. I have sworn by God that I would have to control myself if we ever came in contact with each other.

I understand where you come from because I know how amazing he is. I get it, you are hurt and you were once in love with him. I know you probably are even more hurt that he has completely moved on from you. I bet you thought one day he would come back to you until I came. It happens to the best of us. You have gone above and beyond to make an effort to get him back. You text him, snap him and even try to lie to me about your relationship. But it hurts me more than anyone else.

I was hurt last year because I was in an abusive relationship. I was really happy with finally being single. I never asked for God to send me such an amazing guy. He and I became so close so fast. He was one of the best gifts I received last year. He's sweet, accepting and everything you want in a guy. We would stay up until late at night talking and watching Christmas movies. We dated right away, and that’s when I found out about you. He told me the full truth and when I reached out to you, you lied. For a second I believed you and felt bad for you. But than I caught you and didn’t respect you for trying to break us up. When I told you our plans of getting married, I explained that it wasn’t meant to be.

You texted him asking why he was never like this with you, why he never wanted to marry you. You were hurt but what you didn’t know was that you were hurting me more than anyone. You took a situation where I told you to get, to stay away and made it into a way to latch on. It’s not my fault you're hurt.

You still haven’t given up on him. Friend requesting him, messaging him, anything to get under my skin or get his attention. Sure I have the boy and the relationship you want, but I am happy. My boyfriend always says that I never have to worry about you but I do. I don’t go one day without worrying that one day you will take him from me.

I’m writing this not for the “attention” but to tell you that I’m tired. I am tired of crying over letting you get the best of my emotions. I’m in love with him. And if you want to know, he is 100 percent over you. He constantly reminds me that I am the only girl for him, and I believe him. I am unbelievably happy without you. I really hope one day you find a guy that loves you as much as he loves me.

I’m ready for the day that a person comes into your life and gets him off your mind.

Until then,

Your Ex-Boyfriend's Girlfriend.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
