I still love you but I have to let you go

Letting Go Of The Boy I'm Still In Love With

As Gina Rodriguez said In Someone Great, "I met you when everything was new and exciting, and the possibilities of the world seemed endless. And they still are, for you, for me, but not for us." And thats pretty much how I'm going to sum it up. I met you when I wasn't looking. They say the best things happen when you're not expecting them, and I wasn't expecting you. But you came into my life and you made me that girl that was head over heels madly in love. You had me fully in love with you 9 days after I met you. You made me the happiest girl in the world, and I will always remember that summer, because it was amazing.

If you study psychology like me, you've learned about the "honeymoon phase" of a relationship. And f**k is that the realest theory ever. It's those first 3 months when everything is new and your partner is perfect and everything is like a fairytale. But it ends and reality sets in. You start to realize things about your partner that you didn't before, and everything goes to shit.

Nothing was the same after that perfect summer and the few months following that, we fought a lot. But I loved you through it all, and I still do. You didn't treat me right, and I knew that, but I didn't care because I loved you and I just wanted to be with you. I find myself wondering if I'll ever stop crying over you and being sad, and I just hope that one day I can come back and write about how everything worked out and how I shouldn't have let you hurt me this much.

But for now, I love you. I love you more than anything in this world, and I miss you so much. How do you let go of someone that you're still madly in love with? I'm not sure, but i'm gonna figure it out. Maybe one day when were older and wiser we will find each other again, but for now, I have to let you go.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
