To The Guy Who Left Me For Another Girl

I doubt you ever even gave me a second thought.

I just don't think you understand. You don't understand what happens to a person when you leave them for someone else. So I guess I have to explain. It makes the person you leave feel worthless.

When you left me for another girl, I felt like I wasn't good enough. It was as if you were telling me: "you're not enough, but she is". I felt like I was trash, just thrown away and replaced by something else. But you don't care.

I doubt you ever even gave me a second thought. You told me you were leaving, kicked me out of your life, went to the other girl and never thought about me again. You made me feel like I was nothing, you rocked my confidence. You got to go on with your life, with another girl, mind you, and you never cared about how deeply you hurt me.

Do you know what it feels like to be told you aren't good enough? Do you know what that does to someone? Can you even comprehend it? Probably not, because you threw me away like garbage after making me question whether or not my entire being was good enough.

Currently, I am rebuilding some of my confidence that you haphazardly tore down. I am in the process of healing, and every day I am getting stronger. Every day I am realizing that I am beautiful, I am a good person, I am enough. I am enough for myself, my friends, my family, and plenty of guys out there. I am a strong person, and like everything else, I will get through this, because I am resilient. I will be a kind, brave person, a person you don't, and never will deserve.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
