Today I stopped trying to be 'someone' for somebody who never thought of me as anyone appreciated and important to them. Inside I know the space I had for them is now crushed and broken.. Let the facts be out in the open and the truth be spoken... In time it will be for the best...although I feel an emptiness...knowing what I considered worthwhile..proved shallow and unreal.

'The happy-single'  ' Me, myself and I'  'Going solo, going strong'  'Too cool to date'  ' In a relationship with myself' God! The many things we say to show the world how  happy  and  in love  we are with ourselves. Who has the time to actually figure out how screwed up we really are, right? Amidst the lust for our dream jobs, our careers, our 'private plans', we've forgotten how to love. And I'm afraid it's not a good sign.  Some things are in our control. Like we have the option to actually use our heads and figure out what's  cool  for us and what's not. How about we don't misunderstand this piece and find out where we're going wrong? Do we really love ourselves or are simply creating an illusion of it? Here are the things we're actually doing to screw it all up:  1. 'Love is a waste of time. Love is boring.' Our bunch has  better  things to do.  We have our ambitions to fulfil, our

And compared to that, your life now is better-you actually  know  how to act around people you like. That’s probably the only reason to be glad you’re an adult. Here are 9 differences between your behavior around your crush when you were young, and now. 1. Then- You’d dream of getting married to your crush, and have an elaborate wedding Now- You’re too busy loathing yourself for not being as perfect as them to even think about being with them Hello, self-doubt.
