The boy who told you he'd text you when he was leaving that morning but never did? He sucks. The girl that told you she loved you but then dumped you to get back together with her ex? Yes, she sucks. But after all is said and done, not everyone sucks. We all eventually get…

Love Yourself As Much As You Want To Be Loved
"Love yourself as much as you want to be loved" - the first time I read this quote, I thought it was so beautiful and so true. Self love is so important. But when I looked at it again, I realized what a challenge that could be. Everyone wants a big love. I don't care…

You Can’t Have It Both Ways
I'm not really a forgive and forget kind of person. More specifically, I have a hard time forgetting. As an overthinker, the things I do and the things other people do to me really stick with me. And if someone hurts me, it stays with me for years and years. I've encountered a certain type…

It’s almost inevitable that once in your life you are going to get your heart broken. It’s not just going to be like that time one high school someone didn’t like you back or that other time in college where you gave someone your number and he didn’t text you. It’s going to be real. …

My Love Language
On a recent blog post called Choosing Love, Candid Compositions mentioned how important it is to know each other's love languages and I completely agree.

Choosing Love
I think we all experience love differently. I see it every day, there is no one way to love someone. And I'm not just talking about family love vs. friends love vs. marriage love - I'm saying that every relationship and every person who is in love does it differently. My first big love was…
No One Owes You Anything
Some people deserve the world and some people just don't. Some people get what they want easily, some work hard for it, and some don't get anything at all. We all know that life isn't fair. We live it, breathe it, see it, and participate in it. So why do we constantly think we are…
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…
Stop Revisiting Failed Relationships
If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. This doesn't apply to failing relationships, so stop trying and trying again when you already know it's not going to work out. I'm completely guilty of double, triple, quadruple thinking my decisions especially when it comes to relationships. After ending something I often wonder if…
Losing Touch
I think a lot about how big the world is. How every person I meet is living as complicated and in-depth of a life that I am. Sometimes I feel so wrapped up in my own stuff, my own mind. And as I get older, my social circles get smaller. I’ve lost connection with people…
