Our Last Break Up

A letter to the boy I spent three years of my life with.

A letter to the boy I thought I would end up with:

This is the letter for our final break up. This is where it ended. Though we broke up a few months ago, I am just now writing this because I wanted to be sure that it was real, and I wasn't really sure what to say.

We had it good

Some of my best high school memories were spent with you. You truly knew how to make me happy. I know what it feels like to love watching someone laugh, and what it feels to be overwhelmed with joy - all because of one person. I would watch you sing from the passenger seat, while holding your hand, and be on top of the world. Happiness with you was even as simple as laying in your bed, watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas, just because it was my favorite movie. I will never deny the fact that I was happy with you.

We had the not-so-good

This is where we were troubled. I never knew what day would be good, or bad. I had to walk on eggshells around you, just to avoid arguments. Even then, I still found us in a constant, bickering state. We were too young, to be fighting so much. Some of my worst nights, were spent crying over you. So many things were said, and so many things were taken back. Promises made, and promises broken.

Thank you.

Thank you for everything. Thank you for the laughs, the tears, the good times, and the bad. You were my high school love, and I love you for that. There are so many memories that I would not trade for the world. Thank you for showing me what happiness does feel like. Thank you for showing me that I deserve better.

I wish you the best

I hope you are truly happy. I hope you graduate, and life becomes what you have always wanted. I hope you find a girl that brings out the best in you, and that she holds on to you.

Our last break up was the hardest, and I am still not over it. I will always care about you, no matter how bad things ended between us. You taught me so much. I will always remember you as my high school romance, but unfortunately, that is all you will ever be.

Sincerely,

The girl you spent three years of your life with

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.

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.
