I'm not sure why being single seems like it's the end of the world. I guess no matter how hard I looked at it, no one looked as happy when they were single as they did when they were in a relationship. There was a good chunk of time for me when being single was like torture.…
Break Ups
When Is It Over?
Sometimes, due to human nature, we just have a problem with ending something we've gotten comfortable with. Even though we know what we're doing isn't right for us, it would just be more of a hassle to learn to live a new way. I've done it before. I lived a life where I was…
