To Every Person Telling Us We're Too Much Too Soon, You Can Stop Now

Maybe you're just not enough for us.

I've been told over and over that I'm too much for someone. Do you realize how horrible that can make someone feel? I can go from talking to you everyday to terrified to say "hi" because I don't want to be annoying. Relationships are terrifying to me and I hate the idea of falling hard for someone and them just leaving.

Going into a new relationship is hard enough, but with the hardships and heartaches of the last relationship creeping in, they're terrifying. Guys don't get that you can be fully over someone else and then the moment the new partner does something similar or says something, you're triggered.

When they say, "We should talk about this before our relationship goes too deep" or "I just want you to know that I don't like when a girl is 'too much.'" What does that even mean? How can any girl be too much? Easy. You're in the right spot in your life to dive in and give this relationship everything you have because you're not in it for the games. No girl at 23-26 starts a relationship with a man not having the future in their minds. WE ALL HAVE IT. We are built on wanting a future with someone, and to be honest, it's not a bad thing at all.

I have been in two serious relationships in my entire life, both I saw a future and the boy didn't. I let them tell me I was crazy, I was too much, expected too much and longed for something I wouldn't find. NEWS FLASH. This isn't a new concept girls just magically came up with. Did you ever stop and ask your mom how old she was when she married your dad or gave birth to you? She's most likely going to say somewhere between 22-25. Boom. The age of your dating pool.

I totally get it, you're young, you want to go to the bars late, you want to see how many girls you can get, but is that ever enough?

Don't get me wrong, I love a good night out with friends and getting way too drunk, but I love the idea of coming home after work and having someone there to greet you and ask you how your day was. YOU CAN HAVE BOTH. That's the best of both worlds: having someone to not only go out and get wild with, but that same person is the face you get to come home to everyday.

Knowing men, they probably had that at one point and then they began to grow further apart from their girl. Why? Because she showed signs of being "too much," also known as, she wanted a future and was falling in love with you.

I always thought I was just not enough, and that goes hand in hand with being too much. You're too needy, sweet, don't know how to say no, you want them to talk to you all the time, and worst of all, you expect them to actually want to be with you. We're the worst, I know.

When you start a new relationship, you may not see what the girl sees, she looks at you and wonders if you're going to the be one that's different. Being ripped down over and over can get exhausting and become depressing. You don't think about the things you've said to her that may have brought her so low, but then again, maybe you know exactly why she's like this.

I had a horrible break up about two years ago and I'd like to say I didn't bring any of the negative energy into my new one, but I did. My guard is up and I don't want to let it down in fear I'll be told the same things.

Being too much isn't a bad thing, and you should never say it to any female. We know what we want out of a relationship and we know that at the end of the day, you want it too.

Shying away from your feelings and telling her she's too this or that isn't going to do anything but create a little monster inside of your girl. She'll go into everything she does, wondering if she's too much of something.

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
