Don't get me wrong we are happy for you, but just remember we are still here.

Don't Forget About Your Single Friends

Everyone wants their friends to be in a happy relationship, so then you can go out and do all those fun couple activities. But what happens when only one of you is in a relationship and the other isn't?

You see all the fun adventures you two go on, and think "I'm glad they are happy."

You hear about how good they are for each other.

You let them talk about how happy they are in the relationship, because that's what friends do. But you don't say how you are really feeling because you don't want to ruin their moment.

You see them post pictures and videos, wishing that you could have gotten an invite. But who wants a third wheel hanging around.

We know that your life is busy with school, work, homework, the boyfriend/girlfriend. But what about us? The friend that has been through everything with you. When do we get to have our time?

We are happy that you are so happy and doing good. But we wish that sometimes things would go back to how it was before, just to have that person back and just be us without the other half.

Don't forget about your single friends while your in a relationship. Still make time for them, because even though they might look happen when your hanging out doesn't mean they don't have their bad days. Pop in on them, surprise them, let them know you are there.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
