3 Signs You're The Toxic One In The Relationship

There are so many toxic people out there. It's almost impossible to not date at least one toxic person in their lifetime. However, you never hear of someone saying that they are toxic themselves. It's possible that YOU may be a toxic person in a relationship.

You make your partner ask you for permission before they go out or do something. 

If your significant other wants to go out with their friends, they shouldn't have to ask you, "Hey X wants to hang out tonight is that ok?" Part of being in a relationship is being with someone you love, but also still being able to be free and be yourself. You aren't their parent. You shouldn't tell them they can't or not to do something.

You are never the one to apologize. 

Granted, I totally understand that it can be hard to admit that you're in the wrong sometimes. Personally, it takes me a bit to come around and apologize, but I can't say I never apologize. For example, if I'm on the phone with my boyfriend or even in person and I'm being overdramamtic or being a bit mean towards him, I always notice it eventually and I always apologize for it. I never want to make my boyfriend feel bad or that he deserves to be treated badly. However, if you never apologize or think nothing is ever you're fault...sorry but that's toxic. You have to be able to admit when you're wrong or come across the wrong way to someone.

You aren't loyal to them. 

Not onlyt does this include cheating, but this also is a respect thing. If you are blowing your S.O off to hang out with friends even though you and your S.O had plans prior, that's pretty low, nor is that loyal to your S.O. Cheating, in my opinion, is one of the lowest things you could do to someone. Not only does it break their heart, but it makes them question everything about themselves. "Am I good enough?" "What's wrong with me?" "Am I not pretty enough?" Instead of cheating on someone and hurting them 10x worse, just break up with them. Give them time to be alone and get over you before you go and cheat on them.

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.
