To The Boy Who Cheated On Me

Note: I said boy and not man because if you were a man you would've known better.

To The Boy Who Cheated On Me

I would've never thought in a million years that you would put me through all that you put me through, but you did. Those brown eyes and that smile hid your manipulative and lying self.

I was head over heels for you.

In my eyes you could do no wrong... And man, was I mistaken.

We had some good times, at least I thought we did. At the end of the day you chose to break my heart. Apparently for you, I wasn't enough. I wasn't good enough. I gave you my all. I was good to you. I gave you the world.

I had plenty of guys who wanted to be with me yet I chose to stay with you. When I look back to what we had, I know that I should've ended things with you sooner or I should've never given you the time of day in the first place.

I'm a simple person, the littlest things make me the happiest. All I wanted was for you to let people know that I was your girlfriend. You couldn't do that one thing for me.

It seemed as if everything I did for you was not enough. I gave my heart to you and expected the same in return but I guess that was too much to ask, huh? I wanted you to love me as much as I loved you.

But hey, if what we had was love it would've never failed, right?

In the Bible it clearly states, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

I can't remember times that you made me smile. I can only remember the times that you made me cry. That's not love. You'd never take the blame anyway.

So many people were noticing all that you were putting me through and telling me but I didn't listen. I was stupid. I look back and wish I could smack some sense into myself.

With all that being said I want you to know that I forgive you. I forgive you, not because you deserve it, but because I do.

I've learned what I deserve, how strong I am, how much love I have to go, and most importantly... To let go.

Thank you for cheating on me. Thank you for breaking my heart. Thank you for making me realize my worth.


God only knows how much I did for the wrong person.

I can only imagine what I'll do for the right person.

I'm ready and I hope he is too.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
