To The Boy Who Decided I Wasn't Enough

I loved you, until you made me doubt my worth.

I start this out by insulting you because of the way you insulted me by leaving our relationship with no explanation. One day we were chatting on the phone, happy as ever, and the next I hear nothing from you. For weeks. I saw you reading my messages and ignoring my calls. For weeks I couldn't figure out what I had done wrong and I made myself sick at night crying over you.

I was so convinced that I messed up. Maybe I sent too many messages. Maybe I told you some stuff too soon. Or maybe you were a coward who couldn't commit for whatever stupid reasons. Maybe you were intimidated because unlike your past girlfriends, I cared about you. I called to make sure you made it home safely and I thought about you every time I heard that song that you love.

I told you stuff about me that I'd never told anyone. I shared my fears and hopes and dreams with you, and in return you shared those things with me. I only knew you for a short time, but I really thought you were going to be someone special. I dreamed of us having a life together. You were good to me. You loved me for my flaws and my perfections. You made me strive to be a better person. Maybe that was because I thought I had to change myself for you.

I told myself I had to be more mature. I had to dress different and look perfect every time I saw you. I had to act the way you wanted me to, the way I thought you'd like. I told my family and friends about you, ecstatic, on the thought that you were the one. Even now the thought still lingers. You could come back with a false explanation for your behavior and I would accept it. I would believe any lie you told me because I love you. I would willing take you back because I miss you that much.

You made me feel like I wasn't enough and I will never forgive you for it. You made me doubt my worth. I'm past tears now though and I've moved on to being angry. It will take time to get over you but every day I am coming back to the girl I was before you decided I wasn't enough.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
