LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE.

During my 10th grade year I met a guy, he was a really nice guy. I didnt really have feelings for him but his friends pushed me into going on a date with him and he ended up asking me to be his girlfriend. But of course, being me, I said yes. I did not have any feelings for him whatsoever but we dated he met my family and I ended up really liking him.

After a couple months I told him I loved him and he said it back, I really had hoped he meant it. We were one of the most popular couples in school. I was really in love, I then ended up meeting his family and right from the beginning they did not like me. Not that I was a bad person or did bad things cause I didnt, they just for some reason did not like me. But we kept dating and after 6 months he started to get really full of himself - he had lied to me and even ended up cheating on me (which he still denies) but of course being me I gave him another chance i was just so "in love" or at least thought I was and after 7 months of his family hating me and him just not being the guy he used to be. We broke up and it wasn't just a normal breakup, he called me horrible things and was just so mean to me. I cried for months over it and even now I still cry and I'm in a new relationship too. Break ups are very hard but I don't regret the break up whatsoever, I'm absolutely positive if we hadn't ended it then or I had gone back to him it would have turned into an abusive relationship.

So no matter how much you think you love them, if they dont treat you right leave, leave right now. I promise you it will be the best thing you ever did! Even though i cry, and that's because when we first dated we had a very strong emotional connection and i did love him at first, I'm so much happier now than I was getting treated how i was. I'm happy and living well. Life is pretty darn good.
