To The Love Of My Life Who Is Moving On Without Me

You were the greatest love I've ever found and if I ever find that again I promise not to let go. Promise me, you won't let go if you do the same.

To The Love Of My Life Who Is Moving On Without Me

Our story was one that I won't ever forget. It was a whirlwind kind of love, one that I never thought I would feel. I keep chasing for it now that I know it exists. When we first met I felt something there but avoided it because it wasn't the right time or place.

A few months passed by and when we had our first date, it was like nothing I've ever had before. I felt like I was in a movie where everything seems to go by so quickly and you never have a moment to catch your breath.

I will love you for the rest of my life.

You were everything to me. I knew that I would never lose myself in you because you were so amazing at making sure we both had separate dreams that would collide. We never planned our lives together because our own plans worked together. You taught me so many things about life and things in general. I never thought that we would ever not be together.

There was a huge part of me that thought you were the one, and that one day everything would fall together. Now I see that I was wrong because everything fell apart. I know that I am the main reason to blame. I'm sorry for that, and for the pain I caused you. I'm glad that you got through it; I'm glad that you moved on.

For a while there, I thought that I could never love again.

Thankfully I was wrong, but I haven't loved someone the way I've loved you yet and I don't know if I ever will. You were my first love, hopefully not my last. The world does need to know though, that you were the greatest love I've ever found, and if I ever find that again I promise not to let go.

Promise me, you won't let go if you do the same.

Don't let go just because you saw me in a bar, saw my smile, felt my touch, and was brought back to all the good. With the good comes the bad, and our bad was terrible. I pushed, you fled. We weren't a good combo then, and we've spent a year and a half of our lives apart. We wouldn't be good together now.

Our chapter has come to an end.

Just because we are over doesn't mean that you weren't the love of my life or that I will stop loving you; the truth is you were the love of my life and I won't stop loving you. I don't think I ever could. With all of that also comes a small amount of heartbreak seeing you move on.

I want you to know that I am happy for you, and I hope that you love her as much as you loved me. I want to stay in your life, I want to know all about your accomplishments and watch you from afar. I just can't be in your life like I was before because I love you and I can't watch someone else love you.

Thank you for showing me what falling in love feels like.

Without you, I would never know how it feels to fall head over heels for someone. To want everything they want, to push them, and make them be the best they can be. You will always push me to be my best, and I will prove you right. I will show you that I can live up to my potential.

Don't ever stop kicking me in the right direction when I get off track.

You mean the world to me and I won't stop loving you, but I'm happy for you and I hope that you are happy for me.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
