Beautiful
The day was clear, "No snow today," she thought as she walked out of the gate. Letting out a sigh, she continued up the sidewalk towards the bus stop. The bottom of her pants dragging behind her, making a sound that reminded her of sand at the beach.

Mum, I'm in Love with a Gaslighter
Names have been changed to protect identities of people in this story, but everything is raw and real. I am telling this story on behalf of a very close friend. They have given me permission to tell their story as my first article as they feel it is important to recognize someone may be a victim of gaslighting regardless of age or gender.

Signs a Shy Guy Likes You
When it comes to shy guys, it's actually pretty hard to tell if they like you or not, because they're just so quiet! They're not like most guys who are very outgoing, loud, and straightforward if they like someone. But I have to admit, shy guys are pretty cute. You can just tell how innocent and caring they are... not so much innocent (sometimes), but they certainly do care for those they love. Even though they don't say much, they hold so many thoughts and secrets that you would never believe. After talking to a shy guy for a while, you might leave thinking he's actually not that shy.

Trust
Trust is a big word.... I met this guy my freshman year of high school and he was a senior. My friend had set us up on a date that lead to me losing my virginity to him a couple weeks later after spring break. We ended up being 'friends with benefits' type of thing till he graduated. This guy meant so much to me that I would do anything for him, even after he ended up being a shady asshole that gave me an STD and I almost had his baby. He was such a selfish person that he only cared about himself and his image. I was that girl he fucked in private and friends in public basically. I was so mistreated by him that I let him do that to me and mess up my future relationships with other guys, which it did. We continued to have an on and off thing for 5 more years.

Six Years Ago
Six years ago, it really has been a while but yet it only seems like yesterday I was walking around the hallways of a new school starting out in grade ten. High school, a terrifying time for an introvert such as myself. I used to get high just to mask how scared and alone I actually felt. Plus the only friends I had when I started at this new school were stoners anyways. I fit in with them, since they were sort of outcasts like myself.

Friends or Enemy?
Have you ever been betrayed by your own best friends before? I have. I’ve never really had close friends. In high school towards the end of my senior year, I completely lost my group of friends. I had no reason why I had lost them but at that time I was dating someone, and I don’t know if it was because of my ex-boyfriend or me. My boyfriend at the time didn’t go to my school, he was older than me. During school I was always texting him and I didn’t understand how my friends stopped talking to me, I felt like it was because they probably thought that I was to invested or whatever I don’t know. I graduated and left with no friends. My boyfriend at that time was my only friend.

I Moved to a Different Country for Love
Long distance! Many people have/ have had a long distance relationship, including myself. I was in one for a little under a year. It didn't end though. I made a life decision based on it, revolving around it. It was the most important thing in my life.

Forgiveness In Relationships
Have you ever been in an argument before with your friend or partner? If so, raise your hand. From the looks of it, it seems like it’s nearly impossible to get into a relationship without getting into some form of conflict at one time or another. This makes me wonder why we choose to step into these kinds of relationships at all in the first place. While everyone may have differing opinions, I believe that life would be utterly boring without having other people around to share our experiences with.

You: A Goodbye Story
Do you remember that day? That night? We sat at the foot of my bed, each on our own sides. You cried, "I love you. You're my best friend," through your tears.

Coming Out
The world that we live in isn't as inclusive as we think. We look at those in the LGBT community and we have so many different terms to know and it means that we can label almost every single person. You can not want sex and want a romantic relationship. You can want sex and nothing more. You can like the opposite sex, same sex, both, like those in the middle, like those who feel more boy some days and more girl other days, like those in transition, like all of the above. The LGBT terms are as flexible as a gymnast. The terms are not the problem; the problem is having to tell people.
