To The Guy Wasting My Time, Stay Far Away From Me

I want to have things that matter in my life and you don't.

You are charming, easy to talk to, attractive, funny, smart, and everything that I would want in a boyfriend. We spend time together, go on dates, and tend to talk throughout the day. All of this is great, except you have other plans, or better yet, lack there of.

You want to live life carelessly and that is not what a relationship is. You want to have fun until it’s not anymore. You don’t want to commit. You don’t want to think in terms of the future with me. You want what is easy.

As soon as it is anything other than that, you plan to leave. Meanwhile, you will have gotten my hopes high and I will have grown to like you. But just like that, the texting, the company, and you are gone.

Now, I’d say shame on me, but that’s not true. I shared my intentions from the beginning in the hopes of scaring you off before I could even like you, but you stayed and said those were your intentions too. But that was a lie. You took what I had to give and left before a commitment was formed and with all of your feelings in tact. Again I am left wondering if anyone really means what they say when they are talking about relationships.

So to you. The guy who can’t get it together. The guy who fakes it until he gets what he wants. I want you to know that you are a waste of time. You deliberately took up time and space in my life without any idea for an end result, but instead, an escape.

Stay far away from me and any others like you.

I know what I want and have a plans and courses of action. Leave me to be successful while you still wonder about with meaningless endeavors. I care to have things in my life that matter and you don’t. You are taking away opportunities for me to better myself for the right person to come along.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
