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.…
If you’ve read any of my recent blogs you’ll know that in 2022, I’ve gotten back into reading. I was always the kid that reads, I feel like it was my only personality trait for a while. I used to blow through books, but I feel like school actually took my love of reading away.…
Relationships are a fragile thing. One string becomes frayed, it gets snagged, and the whole thing unravels into your hands. You never saw it coming.
