To The Girl Before Me, Thank You For Shaping Him Into Who I Need Him To Be

I do not know who my future husband is and I do not know who you are, but I do know that you have an impact on his life. I do not know the details of your relationship nor do I want to. I'm not here to attack you but to simply say thank you.

No matter how it ended, I know that he will come out better and stronger once the healing is done. It is inevitable to heal the scar that you left behind, but I am more than willing to accept him for who he is and be the woman he needs in his life. I will love him in the ways that you could not.

I know that relationships are a struggle and nobody is easy to love. I know that we will have our struggles. We will fight over stupid things and disagree at times, but we will talk it out and work through it together. It is us against the problem, not us against each other.

Thank you for teaching him what he needs in a relationship, how to love and to accept the love given to him. Without you, he would not know the kind of love that he needs and deserves. Your relationship with him taught him what he truly needs. You taught him what kind of love is acceptable and what is not.

We are continually growing as humans to become better in every situation, and we will do that together. I will support him in every situation, for the things that you could not love and accept about him, I will love and accept with my whole heart.

For our relationship to work, it will take a lot of trust and communication. Will it be easy? Absolutely not, but it will be so worth it. Trusting someone with your heart is very difficult; you are giving them the power to break you, but I know that when the time is right, I can trust him with mine.

I'm sorry you were not the one for him, but thank you for help shaping him into the man he is and will continue to become. Whatever role you played in his life had some sort of impact and I thank you for that.

I know that my future husband will be my best friend and I cannot wait to live my life with him. Whether I have met him yet or not, I do not know. But once we are together, I know we will be unstoppable. I need a man to compliment my life, a man to have fun with, to laugh with, and to support me in my dreams in life.

I do not know why things didn't work out for you guys, but thank you for bringing him to me. Whatever you did, good or bad, thank you.

Thank you for bringing him to me and giving me my lifelong best friend, and to my future husband, I cannot wait to spend my life with you.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
