You're Not Sorry

And you never will be.

You're Not Sorry
huffpost.com

People come and go. Friends, significant others, and even sometimes family. It can hurt when someone you once trusted and actually cared for, or maybe even loved one way or another, betrays you. I've been there, we've all been there.

From time to time, new people come into my life and it's nice for awhile because it's nice to know someone new. The part that really hurts is when that person turns out to be everything you hoped they wouldn't be.

Learning to trust someone after being screwed over time after time can be hard. If the new people you let in turn out to be everything you were afraid of, let them go. If they try to come back, they'll probably do everything all over.

They're not sorry. They may say they're sorry, but most likely they're not. Most times people say sorry just to feel better about themselves and have a sense of a clear conscience. Not always, but most times.

Don't let people walk all over you and/or use you. I'm the first to admit, I let the wrong people in, one after another. It's not fun. If someone in your life hurts you, betrays you, lets you down, or makes you feel as if you're the problem and something is wrong with you, say goodbye to that person. They're not worth it.

Good people with good hearts are always the ones to get screwed over, just remember that. Those with cruel and empty hearts, are selfish and don't care about anyone but themselves. It sucks.

Unfortunately, just recently I had to go through this again and now I'm paying the consequences. I had to say goodbye and remove myself from an unhealthy environment and friendship. It honestly doesn't feel good. Many people will tell me, it's not my fault and that I did nothing wrong. I don't believe that. I give and I give, but everything is looked over and taken for granted. I guess I learned my lesson, again.

All in all, don't let other people make you feel worthless and terrible, because you're not. The people who do make you feel this type of way just are not truly happy with their self, so they try to make those around them feel bad. They may not even know that they're doing this.

Just remember, they're not sorry and they most likely never will be. Learn to let go and move on, because you did nothing wrong.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
