I have fallen in love enough times to know that they will always mistake your strength for weakness, your attentiveness for codependency, your want for need. Unless they are old enough to know better--and those are the ones who lie to you about being married.

Rant

I wish he cared. You know just a little bit. But I guess I should’ve known from the start that it wasn’t going to end good. You take that leap of faith, thinking that’ll come your way in.

Once you say the words “I like you.” It’s over. You said it.

It can go either way. He can give you a bright toothy smile. Pick you up and spin you around, peppering your face with kisses. Muttering the words I like you too.

Or…

He wrinkles his nose.“ I already knew since last year. And honestly we stopped talking. So why are you telling me now, a year later?”

Your cheeks heat with anger, sadness and embarrassment.“ I, uh…. Sorry.” You run to the bathroom to ball your eyes out.

I know. It’s hard to tell your crush those three words and hoping to receive the answer you want in return. And sometimes you just want the secret to be free, and in the open.

You want the answer I like you too. Or if they didn’t like you back, at least a nice rejection.

You will be rejected. At some part of your life. That is my biggest fear. My worse fear that has come alive in some way.

He just walks by me and doesn’t say anything. No words. No apologies. Nothing. An awkward stare maybe once in a while.

All I wanted was a sorry. Or an explanation onto why you were acting that way. And if your answer is simply I don’t know. Then you are a douche.

I see you talk to other girls, I hear the things you say to the girls. Which makes me sad. It does. I’ll admit I’m not 100% over you. Hearing the things of what my friends say about you. Makes me cringe.

Just the thought of what I said to you makes me cringe alone.

I hate that you make me feel like shit when I see you around the halls.

To put in simple terms I hate you.

Your question is probably why? Why? I didn’t do anything to you.

Yet you did. You don’t know what goes through my head, let alone a girls head.

I just wish karma hits you hard in the asshole.

I’ll forever hate you till I get the three words out of you.

It’s not I like you.

I’m so sorry.

That’ll be music to my ears.

That’s all I wanted.

So if you see this post. Any guy that rejected a girl terribly this is for you. Guys…

Go say sorry to her. She needs it. On whatever you said or what you didn’t say. She needs that.

Now go. Before karma gets your asshole. :)

Rant over.

A Few Teething Problems

I felt Henry’s hand slip over my thigh as we reached his friends house. I had been staring out the window watching the house grow bigger and wider apart for a matter of minutes now, and this house was no different. Its large, white paneled front and shuttered windows answered the question I had been pondering since we turned into the gated community; Henry’s friends were all rich.

“You alright, darling? You’ve gone very quiet” Henry’s deep voice broke my chain of thought and I placed my hand over his on my leg and smiled up at him. “I’m fine. Just wondering whether I should have worn nicer shoes,” I said with a smile and he matched it with a shake of his head and a knit of his eyebrows. Every face my boyfriend made, made me weak at the knees. His scowl was no different.

8 Things That You Didn’t Realize Are Making Your Undereye Circles Worse

I have chronic under eye circles (thanks, mom!) and I can’t even tell you how many times someone has said to me, “You look tired.” CAN PEOPLE JUST STOP SAYING THAT AS A GENERAL RULE? THANKS. My eyes look like I’ve been through the ringer even when I get a full nights’ rest. Because of this, I am vigilant about applying eye cream and avoiding things that will make my dark circles even worse.

You may be doing things that are making your eye bags worse, too, without realizing it.
