I still love you but I have to let you go

Letting Go Of The Boy I'm Still In Love With

As Gina Rodriguez said In Someone Great, "I met you when everything was new and exciting, and the possibilities of the world seemed endless. And they still are, for you, for me, but not for us." And thats pretty much how I'm going to sum it up. I met you when I wasn't looking. They say the best things happen when you're not expecting them, and I wasn't expecting you. But you came into my life and you made me that girl that was head over heels madly in love. You had me fully in love with you 9 days after I met you. You made me the happiest girl in the world, and I will always remember that summer, because it was amazing.

If you study psychology like me, you've learned about the "honeymoon phase" of a relationship. And f**k is that the realest theory ever. It's those first 3 months when everything is new and your partner is perfect and everything is like a fairytale. But it ends and reality sets in. You start to realize things about your partner that you didn't before, and everything goes to shit.

Nothing was the same after that perfect summer and the few months following that, we fought a lot. But I loved you through it all, and I still do. You didn't treat me right, and I knew that, but I didn't care because I loved you and I just wanted to be with you. I find myself wondering if I'll ever stop crying over you and being sad, and I just hope that one day I can come back and write about how everything worked out and how I shouldn't have let you hurt me this much.

But for now, I love you. I love you more than anything in this world, and I miss you so much. How do you let go of someone that you're still madly in love with? I'm not sure, but i'm gonna figure it out. Maybe one day when were older and wiser we will find each other again, but for now, I have to let you go.

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.
