An Open Letter to the Girl That Believes She's Hard to Love

Dear You,

It breaks my heart to see how you view yourself, as a disaster of a person, a hurricane of a girl. Once loving so wildly; carefree and selfless, giving out love like you were made of it. Until him. Until all of them. One after another taking your love and kindness for granted, using you, until you slowly began to feel like you would never have someone. Until you began to feel like maybe you didn't deserve that love, that you just weren't the type of girl that guys fall in love with. Deciding that you didn't need them and closing yourself off from the possibility of rejection. Branding yourself as hard to love, as undateable.

I am here to tell you that, it's not true and that I'm so sorry that they stole that part of you. You are not hard to love, you are not a disaster or a hurricane. You are a goddess, something wonderful, powerful, and staggering.

"You are terrifying and strange and beautiful something not everyone knows how to love" - Warsaw Shire.

I know that you are the type of girl who loves in an all or nothing type of way, loving with your entire heart or not at all. Not everyone is going to appreciate you and love you in the way you deserve to be loved and that's alright.

There are people who deserve you and there are people that don't. There will be people who will find you most beautiful on your worst days and people who love the things that others saw as reasons to leave. And I'm not saying you need them because trust me when I say I know you are the girl that doesn't need anybody but herself, but I want you to know that you don't need to be alone. You are not an unlovable girl, so flawed that no one will stay once they get to know you. You are worthy of love and should be loved exactly as you are.

Sincerely
Someone Who Understands

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
