Have you ever been in a position where you are ultimately afraid of hurting someone who you know would literally catch a grenade for you? I am. I have always been the type of girl who always dreamed of falling in love and staying in love… but there came a time in my life where I was betrayed and all that dumb shit. I literally had to force myself to fall out of love. And must I say, I did quite a good job. But now, I’m stuck in a scenario where truthfully my heart is not getting what it desires and where my mind is focused elsewhere. This summer, I am taking two summer classes 5 days a week until August and classes start tomorrow. I am working a job during the weekends at a family friends business and hopefully working at another food chain as a server on weekdays after class. My concern is that I may or may not have time to spend with a guy who has given me what I deserved in a relationship. That and I want all A’s this summer!
Honestly, I am just exhausted from being in a long distance relationship. I mean, who wouldn’t be, right? I’m torn because as much as I love this guy, I hate the circumstance I am in. I used to cry every now and then.. cried a lot when I found out he was transferring to a random ass state. Now I’m numb to everything… If I am not pleased with the communication or something with the relationship, I really get upset and just become a whole different person. It’s so sad… Why am I questioning my own happiness? Honestly. I’m in a relationship with someone who loves me for me and will do anything for me… but I’m not truly happy. That’s a problem.. I don’t know why I’m not truly happy.. and I’ve been trying to figure it out for months. I don’t want to address the situation just yet only because I’m hoping maybe I’ll figure it out. But maybe I won’t. I don’t know. But all I do know is that sooner or later, I’m going to have to find an answer.
Being in your twenties is all about discovering which things hurt you and what makes you feel good. You go in blindly, practically pricking yourself with a dull blade, and then you walk out with tougher skin. One day you’ll stop pricking yourself altogether. Maybe. I don’t know. How would I? I’m…
