    i am. not doing her justice

    14 years ago, i met the love of my life playing shuffle board at a bar (bff love, that is). this girl is my other half (the fun half). she’s impulsive. she doesn’t think twice before doing most things. she spends all of her money before she gets it. she is ditsy. & she dropped out of college. but… she…

    i am. still friends

    someone reached out to me over dm asking for some relationship advice. she recently broke up with her boyfriend and felt as if she lost a best friend along with it. i think that anyone who has ever been in a long-term relationship can relate to this. i know i sure can. for some reason, i’ve been lucky enough to…

    i am. a hypocrite

    ever make you crazy when someone is texting and driving? or slurps their drink when there’s nothing left in the cup? how about when someone won’t stop talking about themselves? or possibly when someone doesn’t hold the door open for you? i’m pretty sure at least one of these has bothered you. & i’m also pretty confident that you have…

    i am. ending it before it gets started

    yanno when you go on a first date & it’s not going exactly as you had hoped? you just can’t seem to picture the other person as more then a friend & don’t exactly see a second date in your future? you don’t have that spark and can’t force it. but worse yet, they dont feel the same way &…
