To The Man That Led Me On For A Year

Why couldn't you just tell me to move on? Why did you lead my on?

To The Man That Led Me On For A Year
The Self Love Formula

Love is truly beautiful until your heart is stretched out for over a year's length. You think you found happiness -- but have you? Let me help you imagine that tender heart you messed with.

What could I have possibly done to your heart?

Well, for the first thing, I was learning to love for the first time. I took on a love for you and no one else! I was daring, at such a tender moment in my life, to take you on and let you in. My strength was growing, my mind was curious, and my heart was fragile. You managed to have broken it after leading me on for a year.

How did you lead me on?

You managed to make me happy and always kept a smile on my beautiful face. You also managed never to let me go, but why? Was it because you wanted to come back to me after someone didn’t work out for you? Or was it because you knew I was so head-over-heels for you that you never thought I'd ever let go? I only wasted most of my body’s tears on you, asking myself, why? What did I do?

Well, are you OK?

Truthfully, I will never be OK. I am currently still torn. It is almost as if when you get a cut, and it turns into a scar; there's a scar on one little part of my heart. I have trouble loving again. I have managed to hurt people along the way, and I have no clue why! I hate myself at times because of you. I hear your ringtone go off, and I used to get happy, but now I get nauseous. Although, don't worry, I will be OK.

Is there anything I can do?

No. You have done what you can do, and that is building me into the woman I am today. Thank you for that, seriously. I'm glad I have the scar, I truly mean it. I now plan on being careful and loving someone who can give me what I deserve. You are still a friend, but nothing more.

I will always want more with you because I truly believe love doesn't fade away ever after it has flooded your body. My heart and mind still think of you. You still will never text me first or have a conversation with more than just, “Hey,” “How are you?” That is OK. Please, all I ask is that you do not pull me in again. I am better off without you. So, to the man that led me on for a year, thank you!

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.
