Sorry, But Ariana and Pete Are Not #RelationshipGoals

There's nothing enviable about rushing into things.

Actually, I'm not sorry.

Unless you live under a rock, or just never check social media, chances are you've heard by now that pop star Ariana Grande and comedian Pete Davidson got engaged within weeks of reports that they had just begun "casually seeing each other".

And in the blink of the eye, they're suddenly one of the most talked-about couples in Hollywood (JBiebs and Hailey are up there, too.) They've become extremely public about their relationship on Instagram, from dressing up in Hogwarts robes together to showing off their tattoos for one another. It all moved extremely fast, and honestly, it's kind of scary.

I don't dislike either celebrity, and I don't hate public relationships. But I simply cannot get behind an engagement after only weeks of dating.

Both Grande and Davidson are in their early twenties, and both have incredible careers ahead of them. What's with the sudden rush to get married? How well can they possibly know each other? Don't they think that they're just setting themselves up for failure?

While I understand that they are both individuals very capable of making their own decisions, Grande especially should have some grasp on the message this sends to young fans. They now idolize a young woman who thinks a couple months of dating is sufficient enough to last a lifetime.

I don't intend to discredit either Grande or Davidson on their incredible success in their respective industries. If it was cute couple pictures on Instagram, lovey-dovey comments on each other's accounts, and a simple (very public) summer romance, I would have no problem with this. But what's enviable about rushing into things? What are we teaching young girls about what love truly means?

I'm all for love at first sight, and I am the most rom-com obsessed person you may ever meet, but Ariana and Pete are not my #relationshipgoals.

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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
