Before you fall, get ready to catch yourself. After hearing all the things you don't want to, you begin to learn how you deserve to be treated.
1.) Continue to give him more chances than he deserves to prove that he can treat you like his number one girl. Most people will judge you for giving him more chances then he deserves but continue to fall in his trap.
2.) Continue to pretend you don't realize how many times that he has canceled on you within one hour of him picking you up. It's been a mere four times he has canceled and each time your heart breaks even more. Do not expect that text saying " I'm outside, let's go for a trip" because you know it will never be on your phone.
3.) Continue to forgive him over and over again for the same excuses because some people do not learn things as easily as others. Ignore what your friends say, continue talking to this fabulous boy more and your best friends less. Enjoy the conversations of pointless planning because you want it to happen so bad, you'll fake it until you make it right??
4.) After you make plans, do not get upset when they are canceled yet again. Continue to make excuses for him to your best friends so they don't get irritated with the games he is playing and at you for falling in his trap that he wants you to be in.
5.) After all the cancellations, miscommunications, and the games that you have played for so long, open your eyes! Instead of waiting around, realize all of the things you missed. School events, a night out with your family to your favorite restaurant, a mini road trip with your brother and a movie night with your best friends. You felt like you were drowning and he was the breath of fresh air that you needed to survive. You missed all of these fun times because he couldn't decide if you were more important than his brand new PS4.
6.) After you leave him, apologize to your mom for all the screaming fights you had over him, the missed family dinners because you were too busy sulking in your sadness because he canceled his plans that he promised he would keep. Apologize to your dad because you thought you picked out a real winner. Apologize to him because this "glorious" boy broke his little girl's heart one too many times after you promised him he wouldn't.
7.) Continue to thank your best friends over and over again because they never left your side and came to the rescue when he left.
8.) Finally, after you heal and not a minute sooner, find a better man. A guy who appreciates your busy schedule, your rather corny jokes and enjoys spending long weekends at the softball field with your obnoxious teammates. Look for someone that doesn't cancel at the last minute but makes plans at the last minute. Look for someone who challenges you to be the best you possible.
