Why You Need To Stop Forgiving Him

He isn't good to you and you know it.

My dear, why do you keep forgiving him? You know you shouldn't, but you keep doing it. And I just have to ask you... why?

Is it his charm? Is it the way he gets you wrapped around his finger and then breaks away a piece of you each week? This isn't how it should be. You should be a team, working together through everything. Not just one of you controlling the other in some sick way. Why do you let him mess up so many times and still be welcomed with open arms? I wish you could see all of the better options you have.

Is it his character? Is it the way he likes having you around when he's alone, but the second his friends are around it's as if you don't exist? I wish you could see that he should want his friends to see how much he cares about you if he truly does care that much. He shouldn't be embarrassed by you being around. You should never feel like a tag-along. You should feel like you belong there and if you don't feel this way, you may want to make changes.

Is it the way he cancels plans? Is it the way he blows you off every time you need something or just want to hangout? Why is it that you come running the second he needs someone, yet he is slow moving to help you with anything? Don't put yourself through this when you have the opportunity to be with someone who would be there for you when you truly need them, not when its only convenient for them.

He isn't kind to you. He isn't true to you. He isn't respectful of you. Why do you keep forgiving him? Why do you keep coming back to him when we both know you can do so much better?

You do not need him. You do not need this stress in your life. You do not need him to be treating you horribly and be forgiven each and every time. He is similar to a puppy that needs to be trained. If you let him get away with things that truly hurt you, these problems will never be fixed and you will become more and more hurt. Please don't do this to yourself. Please find a way out and become who you want to be. People love you for who you are, so take this and run with it. Find someone who is kind to you, true to you, and respectful of you. That is what you need in your life.

So my dear, open up your eyes to the situation you are in and remind yourself of what you deserve. You deserve so much more than what you are being given right now. Go out and get what you deserve because you are worth it, in every single way.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
