breakups
When it comes to breakups, pain is inevitable, but Humans thinks that suffering is optional.
It's Never That Easy
I hope you grow into a beautiful person and flourish. You deserve to be as happy as you choose and not to let anybody hold you back. I hope I granted you with lessons that you can use to keep yourself safe, and to keep yourself from falling into negative cycles. You deserve not to constantly live your days as if there is nothing to look forward to, and all you're doing is holding on by a thread. You deserve better.

Do you ever just fall head over heels for someone the moment you meet them? Well, this was the case for Scarlett when she met her love at the age of 20 years old.

An Open Letter to Him
To You, I remember our first time hanging out, without our usual group of friends. It was a tailgate for my university. I remember the group going to the local brewery where one of your friends made the insinuation that we were more than just friends. I remember how mad I was because you were my ex’s best friend, but I was wrong, our relationship was just starting.

Your Curse
I don’t quite understand how you have scarred me so deeply, that even after years of having not thought of you and it has been so long that I can no longer remember what your face or voice were like, it feels extremely odd to have but one small mention of you break me so wholly. How, may I ask, am I ever supposed to lead a life of my own, when you have left such a dark spot upon my soul? Or am I never to let you leave me and to let you live my life for me? Was that your plan all along that you would fix me, let me think I was okay, and then the minute I wasn’t, I would be made to give my life to you, as your own to lead as you wish? In order for me to repent and be forgiven for showing the cracks in your work, my soul would be yours? The moment I decided to let the cracks show and let anything that wasn’t by your design and perfect take over me, you had to claim my existence as yours? So you could have nothing but the shell of my body, the hollow remnant of my existence, for your own to play with and control as you please for all of time. It’s been so long I don’t know if you’re still alive and yet your evil still lives on in me, controlling me, making my life yours, allowing you to preserve your mark on this world. It lives in me making sure that the whole world will know and remember your evil.

My First "Real" Relationship
I didn't have a "real" boyfriend until my senior year of high school. At this point in my life, I had experimented with both sex and intimacy, but something always got in the way (that something being my terrible taste in men). At this point in time, I was ready to be done with messing around with people that didn't care about me. 18 is a young age to live by this sort of mantra, I know.

Each Time I Change the Story: Outgrown
I don’t remember our first interaction, but I do know we didn’t cross paths immediately, despite the small environment we belonged to. I remember thinking you had the build of a runner, tall and slender. Your eyes were darker than mine, and your legs were so long, they’d stretch up past my waist if we were side by side. You were always lingering after hours, entertaining whoever else was still around. You had a great sense of humor.
