To The Ex Who Never Loved Me

I do deserve to be loved.

To The Ex Who Never Loved Me

I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for claiming to love me but truly not loving me the way that I deserve to be loved. I honestly can say that once we broke up, I hated you more than I hated anyone. Including my sperm donor, which is a lot.

I hated you so much that I woke up every day waiting to read something about you being in an accident and didn’t make it. I know, that may make me heartless, but that is fine with me. I could never beat you at that, even so.

I can honestly say that after this article, I do not hate you. I do not regret anything. I do not miss you. I do not love you. I do not want anything to do with you. I don’t hate you anymore, just for the simple fact that I have moved on with my life and I don’t have time to remember you and the things you put me through for almost two years. I don’t care anymore. I am over it. I guess that the saying “time heals everything” is so true. I am healed. I am so much more of a human being now than I was when our breakup was fresh.

I have finally learned to let go of my past issues with relationships. I am now ready to give my husband 1000% of me and not just 100% of me. I am ready to trust him, I am ready to believe in him. I will always be jealous, just for the simple fact that I am scared of him finding someone better than me. I just have to learn to let go. It won’t be easy, trust me, but I will learn to let go of the things that I’ve put him through.

After letting someone ruin me so much and letting them have so much control over my mind and my happiness, I realized that it is mentally exhausting. It’s total mental abuse and it sucks. It has scarred me, it has me so sensitive that I sometimes question the person that I am and why I became that person; or the fact that I let myself down by becoming that person.

No one deserves the kind of break up that will tear you apart and turn you into someone that you are not and never thought of being. But then again, I guess that kind of break up will teach you something and will make you become someone 10x the person you are, make you a stronger and more eye opening.

We will always have that one ex that never loved us.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
