I'm 19 and I Have Not Found My Person Yet

Patiently waiting...

I'm 19 and I Have Not Found My Person Yet
Ivona

I'm just an average college student doing average college student things. I date, I go out, I study. Throughout my entire life, making friends was the easiest, but keeping them was the hard part.

Boys were always the ones who would influence my so-called friends dissipate, especially in high school. I was the girl who always had a boyfriend which gave off this vibe that I don't have time for friends when in reality they wouldn't make an effort to hang out anymore.

After leaving high school, I have two friends that I keep in touch with every once and a while.

I get jealous when I binge watch Gossip Girl or Grey's Anatomy and see what friendships could be like. I am still searching for my Blair Waldorf or my Christina.

I am 19 and I haven't met my person. Should I feel like something is wrong with me? Should I feel like I'm not good enough to have that person?

I have not met my person who I can completely trust in and can tell them anything (really, anything) and feel no judgment what so ever. I have not met my person who tells me I'm beautiful and always lifts me up when I am down.

And to be frank, it sucks.

It sucks because when there is heartbreak, hardship, or even when I am facing a hard decision, I don't have that person to tell me what to do or to keep me moving. I don't have that person to tell me everything will be okay.

Sometimes I have to be that person for myself.

Don't get me wrong, I have great friends which range from people I see only in my classes to people who I go out with, but I don't have that one person that I can pour my life into.

I'm not saying I'm lonely or friendless, I just haven't met that person who gets me.

I have friends that I party with. I have friends who I study with. Why can't I have someone who I can do it all with?

The one thing that keeps me going is that I know she is out there. My person, future bridesmaid, and even God mother is out there and I will meet here someday.

And I cannot wait to meet my person because I know when I do that I won't have to do this thing called 'life' by myself.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
