Confessions of a highschool sweetheart wannabe
I never really thought about the quote: "be careful what you wish for" until something happened that made me think of it. You see, relationships have never really worked for me because im a really independant person, I know what you're thinking, "Yeah right shes probably a whacked out person and noone wants to be her boyfriend". But seriously I have never really had a relationship that has lasted for over a month, I know, sad right? So i came home envying every girl who had a man at school one day. And when my mom came home from work I complained about it. I was basically talking non stop, it was like I was obsessed with this whole relationship deal. I went on about how is it really so hard to find a nice guy? A guy that will give you flowers or just call you to say hi? I seriouly went on about this for hours... I know pathetic right? So two weeks or so later I finally found a guy he was nice, he gave me flowers one day, called me just to say hi, basically he was everything I wanted. But for some reason it didn't feel right, I thought about all my free time I had before I was in a relationship, all the times I could just go out without having to get a million questions from him. It got to me, so I ended it two weeks later (wow theres a patteren with two week periods in here). But anyways I learned that what everyone has may not be what you always want. So instead of taking the boring approach with a break up by eating a gallon tub of ice cream and thinking about purchasing twelve cats now, I looked at it by saying "I learned right"?

You're a smart girl Miss Caryn :)Now if only we could teach the underclassmen this lesson! Hah, kidding. Although, I have to add, being a high school sweetheart isn't all it's cracked up to be. Half the time people think Ty's dating a 14 yr old. Or that he has pictures of his little sister all over his dorm room lol. I love your silly blog! Sounds just like you :)
ReplyDeleteCaryn, you are exactly right. We don't always have to jump on the bangwagon and want what everyone else wants, it should be about what YOU want. We are all our own indivual so we should take advatage of that, not try to fit in. It's fun to stand out for your own uniqueness. Too many people want what other people have and don't realize that people would kill to have what they have. Also, I agree with you about the boy situation. We don't NEED a boyfriend in high school, there is too many other FUN things to enjoy instead of some stinkin' boy ;). Girls don't realize that we don't need a guy to make us feel pretty or to make us have self-esteem. We can totally do it on our own! & plus we all know we don't need to brake up with a boy just as an excuse to eat a tub of ice cream haha! =D
