Getting Back Together With My Ex Has Only Made Me More Mature

When it comes to love, situations can get messy, you can have bad breakups and end up getting your heart broken. Love, on the other end, can also be a wonderful experience and bring two people together in a meaningful and loving relationship.

Getting back together with your ex for some individuals might not seem like the best idea to do, but for me choosing to bring him back into my life was the best decision that I could have made. When you know you love someone you can get through anything together and conquer any difficulties that you may face as a couple.

Being apart from the one you love is a heartbreaking, depressing feeling like all the air from my lungs was escaping and I could not breathe. Having this feeling of emptiness and realizing that the man I love is no longer mine slowly ate away at me, till I could not take it any longer. Going day by day without your best friend and the one you turned to for everything truly sucked. I no longer had that person to confined in and who would support me no matter what. Finally reaching back out to him was the action I needed to take, just hearing his voice again made everything feel as if nothing bad between us had occurred.

Now I know there were reasons to us breaking up in the first place, but I must realize that even though the sticky situations we faced I should not just run from them, but rather face them head on and together as a couple. The problems that were taking place between us are sadly still there and will take time to get past, but I believe that God puts certain people in your life for a reason. If an individual is meant to be in your life God will make sure to keep them there or bring them back to you at some other point in your life.

Getting back with an ex is not the easiest relationship, it takes trust and loyalty to want to work together and get past the problems you were facing. We as humans make mistakes daily, however, we must view those mistakes as lessons in which we need to learn and grow from. Letting go of the past is extremely difficult for me because it is easier to forgive than forget what occurred; however, I have faith that history will not repeat itself when it comes to mine and his relationship, for if it is meant to be then it will be!

I knew when I reached out to him that if he felt the same way I did and if we decided to be in each other's lives again that it would not be like we were before. I knew that we would not jump in head first and act as nothing happened, it would take time and a lot of communication and expressing feelings to one another to get us back there. Every conversation between us and moment together is proof to me that our relationship can thrive and get out of the darkness and into the light that is our love for one another.

I no longer sweat the small stuff that occurs, constantly fighting and getting jealous over other people that we have in our life's is not worth losing him again. I have faith and enough love for him that I am the only woman he wants and plans to be with. Having that loyalty on either side truly makes all the difference and leads to a much greater relationship in the end.

Actions always speak louder than words for me and he has gone above and beyond his way so far to showcase his love for me and not just tell me. No matter if it is a quick chat between us at my apartment after he gets done at the gym or a kiss on the cheek before we part ways to go into class, these actions show me that he cares and is in this with me; I would not want to go through the rollercoaster of life with anyone else and us constantly coming back to each other proofs that God believes that as well.

Reaching back out to him was the best decision for me and I am beyond blessed to have him in my life. Not a day went by where I did not miss him and knowing that I have the man I love back in my arms is truly a gift from God!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
