An Open Letter To The Boy Who Can't Commit
Trinity Kubassek

To the boy who can't commit,

I wonder sometimes what the story is, why you couldn't and still can't allow yourself to feel comfortable with just one person instead of two or three. I guess that trying to understand why you couldn't just be honest with me from the beginning as to what your expectations were is just a waste of my time. I would have been so much better off if you had just been clear with your intentions when spending time with me. But no, you made that decision for me by lying. What's even worse is that after all that was said and done, you acted like I was insane for thinking that we were together or exclusive. I was very clear that you were the only person I was seeing and that I expected the same of you. You can't tell me that I did not make this clear because I obviously have been the most attentive person involved in our conversations.

But this is besides the point - this is about you and why you decided to do what you did. It's hard for me to understand why you would want to make anyone feel the way that you made me feel - unwanted, unlovable, and replaceable. I can assure you that no one deserves to feel like this so the minute you understand empathy, you can give me a call because I wait for the day of your epiphany. This is not because I want to rekindle something with you but because I will be proud of you for finally realizing that people have feelings. Because of the way you treated me and told me how much I mean to you, I gave myself to you (emotionally) and you ran - you took my heart and ran with it only to drop it halfway through the race.

To the other girls who you have taken as victims, I hope you realize that you deserve more than someone who thinks that you are disposable and that you are just one of many of his conquests. I feel for you so deeply because we all have experienced the same pain caused by the same person. My best advice would be to move on and find someone who treats you like the queen that you are.


Sincerely,

Me

April Ludgate

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
