13 Ways Playing 'Fortnite' Is A Lot Like Falling In Love
Bruce Mars

In a lot of ways, playing "Fortnite" is much like the stages of falling in love.

1. Sometimes, you put up walls to protect yourself from getting hurt

2. And other times, you break them (and other things) down and open yourself up to new experiences

3. We do our best to heal from past heartbreak so we can move on and find someone new

4. And when someone lovely walks into our lives unexpectedly, we can feel as though we've gotten cross-mapped by Cupid's sniper rifle

5. Sometimes, you muster the courage to slide (or glide) into his or her DMs first

6. And other times, your shyness has you beat and you hide as your crush walks by

7. You pray that they don't catch you staring and admiring them from afar

8. Yet if you somehow manage to get their number, you feel like you've found a chest full of treasure

9. You're excited to finally have some romance in your life because drinking alone got too sad

10. But alas, now they are playing hard-to-get!

11. When you've finally got them, you know you'd follow them across the world and back

12. You want everyone you know to be just as excited about your new love as you are

13. Because being with your special someone makes you feel like you've won a serious match of Battle Royale

And if you've done everything right, you've made it to Pleasant Park, and Lonely Lodge is just a distant memory.

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander.
