To The Boy Who Was Cheated On Before We Met

I can't undo what she did, but I can promise to never hurt you.

To The Boy Who Was Cheated On Before We Met
Francisco Moreno

I can't pretend to know what you went through and what you go through every day.

I know how hard it is to think you're not good enough or to not be chosen. You feel like it's elementary school again where you're the last one picked for dodgeball.

It knocked your self-esteem down to nothing. You had no confidence when you met me. Now when I compliment you on something you say, "yeah I know," with the biggest smile on your face. I didn't know you before, but I can imagine this is what you were like before her. You played every sport possible and you're so unbelievably talented.

I know you question everything daily. You question our relationship and if I'm talking to other guys, because she did. She made a promise to you that she wouldn't, but she lied and broke that promise and your trust. You dated for a year and you feel like it'll be hard to trust anyone else because how can you trust anyone else when you dated for so long?

It's not that you don't trust me, you just don't trust girls in general. You think that everything I say is a lie, and you have to worry about me leaving you every day. But I worry about the same thing. Maybe you'll find someone better and prettier than me.

But I'm okay with telling you every single day how much I love you. I'm okay with telling you that I'll never leave you, because I won't. I'm okay with reassuring you that any guy I text or snapchat is actually just a friend. I've never cheated on someone, I've never lied to you, I've never even broken a pinky promise. I could never do what she did to you, to anybody.

I promise to love you more and more each day. I promise to always be honest with you. I promise to never just walk away from a fight or leave a message on read and leave it unresolved. I'll try to not be upset when you don't respond immediately or if you take two hours to open up my Snapchat because you're at work. I'll try to never get revenge on you just because you upset me. I promise to choose you every single day.

She broke you and I'm left to pick up all the pieces. I know she hurt you, but I never will.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
