Everything I Want To Tell The Person I Love But Can't Be With

You were the one, but now, nothing is the same.

I guess it's time for you to find out, I do still love you. You were a huge part of my life and I haven't figured out how to push that out of my head. And maybe I shouldn't forget all of the amazing times we had together, but after everything you put me through this year, I feel like I need to. It's been almost a year and people are still asking how you are like I would know. No one knew the real story and a lot of people still don't. People just assumed we would stay together. When they asked and I told them we had ended things, the only response was "Wow, you guys were great together, what happened?".

You were this nice guy with no mean bone in your body and I was this helpless teenager that needed someone to save me. That was the problem. No one knew how much damage you could do to me because you were the one saving me, right? When we were together, my mental health plummeted. I wasn't eating right, I wasn't sleeping right, and I even treated my family like crap. We were both to blame though. During our relationship, we pushed away people that cared about us just to be with each other 24/7. If we weren't together, it was because the other was on vacation or at work. There were even times when we got angry at each other for spending time with friends instead of each other. It took me 2 and 1/2 years and you leaving to realize how toxic our relationship was.

So, when you left and I was happier than I had been in a long time, I couldn't imagine getting back with you. I was back on my feet. I made a ton of news friends, I started working out, and I actually had time to myself. But, you came running back when you realized breaking up with me was a mistake. I was hesitant at first, but I welcomed you back with open arms. I let you hurt me again and again throughout what was supposed to be the best year of my high school career. You pulled things against me that not even Regina George herself would think of. And before I knew it, you were blocked on all of my accounts. You still found ways to slither back into my life though and it drove me crazy. I started getting emails and texts and phone calls from a random number, and I pretended I didn't care. I put on a brave face to my friends and laughed along with them just brushing it off my shoulder, but in reality, it crushed me.

I couldn't believe it was really you because you were an amazing person when we were together. You did so many things for me and I never wanted you to leave. You were a part of my family and I felt like a part of yours. I cared so deeply about you. And that's why I still love you. Because you made me feel like the luckiest girl in the world and feelings like that don't just go away. But, I can't be with you. And I hope someday you realize what I finally did.

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
