You can never "be just friends" with someone you fell in love with

A Letter To My Ex-Boyfriend
Savannah Felke

Dear Ex-Boyfriend

I guess I could just start off by this,"hey there old (boy)friend". I don't really know what happened with us but we were all going to so great then out of the blue it all ended. I still want it all to be a dream and I'm still sleeping. However coming back to reality I know it really happened and you broke my heart into a thousand pieces.

This may just be me? Or maybe it's you? Tonight had to be the hardest night out of these past 5 months not having you by my side. I feel like you just have moved on without giving me an explanation to why all of this happened. I am over here breaking into a thousand pieces that you broke trying to figure out where things went wrong. If this was my fault I am really sorry and hopefully one day you are able to tell me what I did and forgive me.

I wanted to tell you that I really miss you, having those long talks on the phone and the late night hangouts. You kept all of my secrets safe. I felt like I could trust you but now I'm not so sure. You have changed me so much for when we were together. Just to name a few of those; 1) you helped me realized there was more to me than just what I was giving 2) You taught me that not everyone is out to get me 3) You understood me and the way I acted and most of all 4) you loved me for me.

Knowing all of this and all that we had to watch it all crumble in front of us, well in front of me it really hurt me. I have never been this depressed in my longest time. You took away my depression and my anxiety but not having you by my side to tell me that everything is going to be okay it all came rushing back. You taught me new things each and every day.

I know you have moved on to bigger and better things. I am so happy for you that you have found something in your life that is keeping you happy and afloat. Whatever that is I can't wait to see what God brings to you.

With this being said I have learned so much just being on my own. So at the same time, I wanted to thank you for making me a stronger person. I wanted to say thank you for breaking my heart and leaving me here to pick the pieces up all by myself; however, it made me a stronger person to this day. Yes, I will still be struggling with my depression and anxiety and I accepted that it is never going to go away. I have learned to do things on my own and helped me learn to make new friends on my own. So this break-up between us as been hell, but it has also been a learning expereince. So I wanted to say thank you for everything you have done to me.

Thank you,

Your Ex-Girlfriend

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.
