Love is an intense feeling of deep affection.

I personally believe that their are several different types of love and ways to love.

Everyone loves differently.

To fall in love with someone means that you want to be with someone because something about them has grabbed your eye. There is never a complete guarantee when it comes to love, which is why I believe that falling in love can be one of the scariest things you will ever do.

When I think of love, the word "happy" pops into my head.

Now that i'm in love, I see that happiness plays the biggest role in my relationship, but there is that often intense feeling of fear.

Why does fear have to play a part in something that should be unending feelings of happiness?

I've asked myself that question so many times.

Nobody on this earth is the same. Therefore falling in love means learning to adapt to your significant other, learning that your personalities aren't the same, and learning that you each show your love a different way, but that doesn't mean you love each other any less.

Building a strong and healthy relationship takes time, but don't give up.

Someone that you truly love and see a future with is worth fighting for. Always.

Today's generation doesn't love like they used to, and this is something I pray will find it's way back.

I'm thankful to have a boyfriend that loves me in his own way, and even though we show our love differently, we know how to make it work.

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
