What We Can Learn From Liza Koshy And David Dobrik's Breakup

Earlier this month, high profile YouTuber couple Liza Koshy and David Dobrik announced that they had split several months before. The couple had previously been together for a little over two years. They had waited three months to tell their friends and six months to tell their fans.

If you want to hear it straight from their mouths, you can watch David's video "We Broke Up".

The couple agreed that there is so much love for one another, but their lives are on two separate paths—mainly driven by their up and coming careers. They both have demanding schedules. Also mentioned were issues with loving oneself, according to Liza. She knows how important it is to love herself so that she can give love to someone else.

As they've said over and over, they are still best friends. She still appears in his vlogs and they both still support one another. The tearful video speaks volumes of their close-knit relationship and how that will never fade, label or no label.

Their message is one that many don't think is possible. You can stay friends after the end of a relationship, especially if you started off that way.

You can support and continue to appreciate that person, no matter what differences may come. It's the act of respecting another human and utilizing a level of maturity that many full-grown adults haven't even mastered. The fact that two early twenty-somethings had such poise to speak about something so hard and know that they still wanted to be in one another's lives is astounding.

They also teach to love with no bounds. No matter the obstacle—no matter the difference or distance—you should love with all of your heart and nothing less. It's obvious that they care and it's relatable to anyone who has gone through the same situation. Whether you're thinking you're losing your best friend or you're losing a comfortable part of your life, you are experiencing something that everyone has gone through.

Also, can I just say that it takes a lot of strength to laugh and joke about something that was once so painful? They weren't shy to share their emotions, but they also weren't afraid to joke about what happened. It lightened the mood and really made their love for one another stand out.

Like I said before, I know many adults who cannot even fathom reaching this level of maturity. There are people out there trying to settle divorces after years of arguments.There are parents who fight over their kids for years until they reach an agreement. Some never fully learn or prosper from separation, and that's extremely sad.

But David and Liza are perfect examples of how relationships can end amicably. I aspire to have the same mentality that they both have in my future relationships and you should, too. It's no wonder that so many fans have rallied around them in support. Use their love and friendship as a stepping stone—a step to reach a new peak in your maturity and how you treat others around you.

Their biggest battle was with timing. There's hope for them and for everyone experiencing the same thing. But know your limits and never let yourself put love and consideration for another person last.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
