My Boyfriend Made Me Fall For Him But Then Bailed Because He "Wasn't Ready"

One moment we were friends, the next we were more. Then there were times where you acted as if I didn't even exist.

In the beginning, I just wanted to be friends. But you were the one that made me question what we could be. I didn't want to fall for you, but by the time I realized how I felt, it was too late.

It started off easy, I didn't have to think about how to act, I was just myself. But then things changed. We shared sweet moments, sometimes talking late into the night. We clearly wanted to be in each others' lives -we just didn't know in what way. I was uncertain about what we meant to each other. Until one night, when you finally confessed how you felt. I thought everything was falling into place. But I should have known better because the next time we talked you pretended that our conversation never happened.

One moment we were friends, the next we were more. Then there were times where you acted as if I didn't even exist. Your disregard for my feelings left me hurting inside. You made promises that you never followed through on. You were all talk and no action.

I blamed myself for the way you treated me. I thought there was something wrong with me, and that's why you couldn't make your mind up - I wasn't pretty enough, funny enough, smart enough. I would tell myself not to care, to just give up on you. But I did care for you even if you couldn't see that. You seemed to have it all together except when it came to us.

In the end, I can't blame myself for falling for you. You held the promise of something real. But when it came down to it, you just weren't ready.

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.
