I Wish I Could Move On

I'm not sure why I'm so stuck on you, but I am.

I've had this written in my head for the longest time. Probably around three months. I finally put it into actual words weeks ago. I don't know what made me decide to just put it out there, but here it is. Here's my heart on my sleeve, not that you care.

If there's one thing I could have in life, it would be to get over you. To think about you and not hurt anymore.

I drove myself insane trying to get over you this summer. I cried myself to sleep when you told me you didn't love me. A month later when you hinted towards the fact that you did, it tore me apart even more.

And maybe you were lying to me. Maybe you really never loved me. Which is great, because like Callie Torres said, "You didn't love her because you don't destroy the people that you love." And as much as I would like to say otherwise, you have hurt me so much that I can't handle it anymore.

You've never been open about your feelings and neither had I. But I tried. I tried telling you how I felt but you either didn't care or didn't want to get hurt. Whichever it is, I can't believe that I fell for someone that is completely inept to feel anything.

I was a completely different person before you and I'm a completely different person after you. I hate that you've had that effect on me. I hate that you were able to change me into someone I never thought I would be. I hate that you made me want to get married and actually spend the rest of my life with someone. I hate that I wanted it to be you.

I still smile when I think of the day that I was in my coaching class and a text saying, "Hello gorgeous." It just hurts to think about it. It hurts even worse that it was one of the few times that you did anything like that.

I texted my best friend, drunk. The one that knows how bad you are for me. The one that still supports any decision I have regarding you. The text wasn't worded well at all, but I blame the dollar wells. It just ended with me saying I'm not over you.

Everyone keeps saying that I should delete you from everything, but I can't. I know I should but I really just can't. I did for a while, after the break up. Then I just gave up on that idea.

Maybe it's you. Maybe you're the reason that I'm stuck where I am right now. Maybe the fact that it's damn near impossible to get over you is causing me so much trouble. I know that was the problem over the summer.

I just wish I had never caught feelings. That I was as cautious as I was at the beginning of the relationship. I wish this was easier on me and I wish I had never kept talking to you. I wish you never told me you missed me. I wish that I never met you, but you already know that.

I would do anything to get over you, but I'd also do anything to have you back again.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
