I Won't Keep Fighting
I can’t keep doing this because it shouldn't have to be a choice for you. It shouldn't be that hard. If you want her, then be with her.

Cheater
I was head over heels. Ever since I laid my eyes on you. I did everything to be a perfect girlfriend, yet you betrayed me....

Subconscious Choices
When looking for the right person to be with through life, it is often a difficult and frustrating experience, especially considering our conscious mind is not really in control of what is going on.

Me, as a Part of the Problem
It is always easy to blame a broken heart on someone else. What they did or did not do or say. Nitpicking every detail of what you now find to be wrong with the person who left you with a heart broken, even if it was you who left. Excuses are never hard to find if you are looking for them, and when it comes to relationships, the easiest excuse for the demise of love and happiness is the person who is not there anymore. I spent copious amounts of time in my 20s blaming my feelings of hurt, low self-worth, and anger on those who left, or who I left without looking inward to see if perhaps myself and my actions were a part of the problem. It was always the other person who didn’t love me, see me, want me, or like me. I was so quick to point out their faults within our relationship, all the while seeing myself as only a victim of terrible circumstances.

Eve
Her name was Lola. She was a Showgirl. No, I'm joking. She was nothing more than a girl whose soul flourished with laughter and thrived off love. But she was lonely. She was sad. She was single and alone, and yet surrounded by the people who loved her, but always by herself.

Six Things I've Learned From Being in a Seven Year Relationship
I’ve been in a relationship for seven years, and in March it will be eight years. No, we aren’t married, but yes we do plan on getting married. As of when, well that’s a good question. We aren’t sure yet, I’m still in college and we are waiting until I can find a good teaching position and we can at least start to plant seeds to start roots.

Worst Year of My Life
Seventh grade, what I used to think was the worst year of my life. Seriously, I did. It was a new school, new town, new people, and even a new house. My mother had been in a serious relationship with a man for about a year or so, and they had decided to move in together. Ace is a farmer, so it’s not like he could just pack up his cattle and come live with my mother, brother, and me.

The Adult Flirting with You is Actually a Gross Predator
I was fifteen years old when I met Him. Charismatic, dark and handsome, and a badass biker on top of that, he was everything I thought made him too good for me, so when he actually wanted to talk to me, to spend time with me, it was pretty much a dream come true.

Young Love
Many young teens await anxiously to grow up. Some may prioritize friends over homework, jobs over scholarships, or relationships over their own well being. So many teenagers can't wait to fall in love with someone. They believe that having a partner means they'll be set for high school. However, they may be too young to know what love is. Or what abuse is.

How To Take Back Control Of Your Love Life
I know what you are thinking...what love life? No, no, jokes aside; there's this forever impending doom and gloom of pursuing a potential relationship with anybody (that is unless you are a super smooth individual in which I should let you depart us now and use your wisdom rather than spend your time on this article). However, for those of you still here, I intend to pass my wisdom on.

To the Girl Who Needs to Find Herself Again
Somewhere along the line, life happened. And you got swept off your feet into the vortex where you lost yourself. You got confused between who you were and who the world wanted you to be. You forgot how incredibly special and amazing you are. You’ve forgotten how talented and blessed you are. You’ve sacrificed who you are for who they want you to be. You’ve allowed other people to tell you who you are. You’ve forgotten everything about you that makes you you.

John and Jane...and Communication
In order for a relationship to work, be it a friendship or a romantic situation, communication is key. Without it, a stand still will be reached, interest will be lost, and the creation will come to a crumbling end. This end can be peaceful or warlike depending on the parties involved. Without communication, there is no learning, there is no growth as a couple or as an individual. A true relationship forces both members to bend, but not break, to listen as well as respond. Today, many people listen only to react, not truly respond in an intelligent and healthy manner. It is selfish communication that only serves individuals in prolonging an argument or the status quo.
