To The Boy Who Cheated On My Best Friend

Hey Cheater,

Let’s just cut right to the chase. You messed up, and I will never be able to accentuate enough how much of a fool you made yourself out to be, let alone her. Yes, you made her feel like a fool. When you would tell her that you loved her, she believed you. When you said that she makes you happy and you can’t imagine being with anyone else, she believed you. Most of all, when you asked her to make a commitment and be your girlfriend, she thought that you meant serious business and, again, believed you. You know what she couldn’t believe? That you would even think for a second about cheating on her, let alone do it.

There are a lot of other things that she probably can’t believe now. She can’t believe that despite very deep-set trust issues that she actually opened up to you. She can’t believe that she would rave about how great of a guy you were. She can’t believe that she actually saw a future with you. She can’t believe that you made her happy. She can’t believe that she considered you her best friend. The list could go on and on. The biggest thing that she can’t believe is that she actually believed in you.

You know who else believed in you? Me. I believed in you and trusted you to take care of my best friend and to make her happy. You were supposed to be a man, not a boy. You especially weren’t supposed to be a scared little boy that ran off to another girl when the going got tough and worse yet, didn’t have the decency to tell her about your infidelity yourself. You are a coward. You let her down and you let me down. I take personal offense to the things that happened to her so by hurting her, you hurt me. You went out of your way to be with another girl and are possibly the most idiotic person that I have ever known because of it. It was a choice to cheat on her. I don’t care how much alcohol was in your system, if you two were fighting, or if you have “needs” that she wasn’t fulfilling. This one is all on you, and as far as I’m concerned, it is definitely your loss. I hope that one day, if not already, you soak in regret for losing the best girl you could ever get.

I hope that the next girl you try to date thinks twice before committing to you. I truly believe the whole “Once a cheater always a cheater” line. Just know that my best friend is going to be thinking twice as well. She will have to think more than just twice before ever dating someone again because she is going to be terrified to ever open up to another person all because you literally broke her. You broke a beautiful, talented, selfless girl. She is the most kind-hearted, contagiously happy girl that I know and any guy would be lucky to have her. You know as well as I do that I am not just saying these things because she is my best friend. She truly is amazing and can do far better than you.

Not that it’s any of your business, but she will be OK. She is one of the strongest people that I know and she will get past this. In the future when she finds the man of her dreams, she won’t even remember that stupid boy who broke her heart all those years ago. The only thing that I can ever thank you for is for teaching her the kind of treatment that she doesn’t deserve in a relationship. I truly do hope that you learn to grow up one day. Who knows, maybe you'll even earn the right to be called a man again. Even if that day ever comes, just know that in my eyes, you will always be the boy who cheated on my best friend.

Hate Always,

Her Best Friend

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
