I’m a pessimist. Not because I see the world as only bad, even though it seems that way a lot of the time. But I’m a pessimist because I always expect the worst - that way I’m rarely ever disappointed. I don’t like to get my hopes up just to be let down. It’s happened…

Forgetting Not Forgiving
The phrase goes: forgive and forget. Stop feeling the resent you feel towards someone and put it in the back of your mind. That person's mistake that caused you anger or hurt is gone forever and you move on with your life. I've never really been one to forgive because a lot of people ask…
Getting Hurt vs. Hurting Someone
No one wants to get hurt. No one wants to put their heart on the line when there's a possibility of it getting smashed. Unanimously, we can all agree that we do not want our hearts broken. But when it comes to breaking someone else's heart, there is so much less thought put into it. We…
The Struggles Of Being Over-Eager
The trouble with people who are over-eager is that we are often over-everything. We are over-thinkers, we are over-dramatic, we over-romanticize, we are overwhelmed.

Forgetting How To Be Vulnerable

To Those Who Self Sabotage
In most cases, you are your own worst enemy. Someone who self sabotages knows what they want and have all the means to get it. For instance, they are on their way into a great relationship and actively do something so that relationship never begins. Usually they do this because something in their past is…
Dating Sucks But Dating Your Ex Is Worse
If you haven't dated in a while, it is very comparable to trying to find a job. Lots of feelers going unanswered, dates that feel like job interviews and rarely go anywhere. It's exhausting to continue to put yourself out there with no reward. It sucks. So it's easy to look for the easier option…
Love Without The Drama
My first ever relationship was built on uncertainty. It was just like the movies, where there would be some sort of conflict and unrequited love. It was exciting, it made me think that all love needs to be that way. That we need to overcome some kind of problem in order to truly appreciate each…
My Love Language
When I started looking into love languages in the past couple years, I kind of assumed that mine was receiving gifts. But I decided to do some official digging and take a quiz and found out a little more about myself. My main love languages are quality time, and then a tie for second is…
