To The Man Who Took A Piece Of My Heart

You have a piece of me, and no, I don’t want it back. I actually want you to keep it… Yes, please… And I don’t say that with any attitude, sarcasm, or anger but truly and genuinely I want you to keep it. I want you to know that with that “piece” you will always have a piece of me and that piece of me will always care, will always love, and will always be there for you. Even though we didn’t work together… We had first’s together. You were my first REAL true love, the first person who I actually saw a future with. The first man I pictured having kids with.

I saw it all.

You were my firsts with a lot of things. You may not have had many firsts with me. But you had some. And honestly, I’m going to take those as wins. I was the first girl who challenged you and kept you on your toes. Yes, you were constantly always doing work but so was I. I understood “business” and could “keep up” – I know I surprised you quite a bit with that. I was also the first who had goals, dreams, and ambition and could match your determination and ambition. (You found that attractive and that was also a first for me too because typically that intimidates guys…) The first that I am most proud of is that I was the girl who showed you that it was ok to love again. I know about the things women before me have done to you, and I know how you couldn’t trust. That you were afraid to get your heart broken again. I was dedicated to changing that and I put so much time and effort into that…

I love you, I still do, I may always, and knowing that we won’t have a future together hurts more than you know.

Break-ups are supposed to be bitter, I don’t want this one to be that though. I have lost you as my lover but losing you as one of my best friends and losing you as a person in my life hurts 10 times more. With that being said, I want you to know that I will always be there for you and I will always care about you.

I hope you find happiness, and I hope your career skyrockets and reachest the stars. You are already almost there and I know it’s all going to be a success. I hope you end up finding your match and I hope she is your true love, she will be a lucky woman because you are honestly a great guy.

I hope you two have a happy and healthy family, I know you always wanted that.

It kills me to say that, knowing that it won’t be me. But… You deserve to find someone who makes you happier than I could.

I hope our paths can cross again but until then…

I’ll see you later old friend.

15 Reasons Getting A Dog Is Better Than Getting A Boyfriend

Think you want a boyfriend? Well, maybe you do. But have you ever considered that you what you really want is a dog?

Hear me out: boyfriends can be great. They’re nice to sometimes have around. Sometimes you might even love them. But they can be problematic. They don’t always do the stuff we want them to do or pay attention to us like we hoped they would.

Dogs don’t always do what we want, either, but there’s no denying that they love us like nothing else in the whole world. They’re about as near to perfect as creatures can get. They always try their hardest to please us, and their only real drawback is that they don’t stick around as long as we want them to, which would be forever. A dog such as a cavapoos would be your true loyal partner.

So if you’re actively pursuing getting a boyfriend, stop and think about it for a few minutes. Do you want a guy around, or do you just need the awesome love of a dog? If you visit Dogbreedo.com they have listed some of the most popular dog breeds you can consider. From Retrievers to German Shepards you can find your perfect and budget-friendly dog which we are sure will be a better option than having a boyfriend! Check out these 15 pervasive reasons that dogs, on the whole, are way better than boyfriends.

1. Dogs are always happy to see you.

2. Dogs don’t complain.

3. Dogs never lie.

4. A dog never comes home from a bad day at work looking to fight with you over some nonsense.

5. A dog will never cheat on you by secretly having another owner.

6. Dogs will never say anything mean to you and they always think those jeans look great on you.

7. A dog will never get drunk and embarrass you.

8. Conversely, a dog is not embarrassed by you when you are embarrassingly drunk.

9. Some dogs—not all, but some very, very good dogs—will happily wear whatever adorable sweater you choose to put them in. Boyfriends, not so much.

10. Dogs never cancel on you.

11. Dogs are wonderful listeners.

12. Dogs always appreciate your cooking.

13. Dogs don’t judge you for laying around in your pajamas all day. In fact, they’re usually more than happy to join you.

14. The worst thing a boyfriend can do is betray you. The worst thing a dog can do is maybe get into the trash. Really puts it into perspective.

15. Dogs look at you like you’re the most important person in the world, because to them, you are.

You Played Me Like A Joke, But In The End You Lost

I find it pretty funny that you think you have an effect on me. You had a chance with me six years ago, you decided I was too much for you even though you cheated on me twice in the two weeks we were together.

I had fallen for you in such a short amount of time because you gave me the attention I wanted. You texted me every morning, called me beautiful, and tried for over a month to get me to date you but I was hesitant due to the heartbreak I dealt with from an ex of mine before you stumbled in.

You made me believe that you could have an interest in me, you came and took me on a date during our spring break, and asked me out in person, you would sing to me, and do anything you could to get me to give you a chance.

I finally gave you one, and within a week you texted me that your ex kissed you and that it meant “nothing” because you “loved” me, I was a stupid naive teenager who believed a guy she barely knew.

After that kiss, we started to fight a lot, but I came and saw you one night with my best friend because you wanted me to come see you and try to work things out, I was laying on you playing on my phone while you were working on some homework, yet my best friend caught you telling other girls they were sexy.

She didn’t want to say anything to me about it until we left, and she even got a picture when you weren’t watching. Was I not good looking enough for you? How you could tell other girls they were sexy when I was laying on you cuddling, is beyond me. You told me I was the only girl for you.

Our fights finally got to the point that we would barely talk to each other. Anytime we talked it turned into a fight and you would tell me I was too much for you. We had a fight at one point and I told you I couldn’t do it anymore, that I was not enough for you.

You admitted that your ex kissed you yet again, and I finally had enough. We had a mutual break up but you would get mad if you found out I was talking to other guys but you could talk to other girls.

When I started to date my boyfriend you got mad and would say he wouldn’t treat me like you did, you were right, he treated me 10x better than you did. Then you started to date your girlfriend who became your fiancee.

Do you know what aggravates me the most? You are engaged and in the military and still, try to flirt with me. Get over it, we are done, have been for years. You had your chance and blew it twice. That was on you, not on me.

Let go of whatever we had like I did, and love and appreciate your fiance because she does everything for you, when you are away in the military she works and keeps busy until you come home to her. She hangs with her friends and is loyal to you, give her the same respect.

We are history, and that’s how it should be. Get over it

Don’t Let Your History Of Toxic Relationships Determine Your Future

There’s a certain kind of heartbreak you experience when you realize that the person you blindly trusted for so long turns out to be someone completely different.

This is the person who doesn’t actually see you as an equal, and they don’t have your best interests at heart. They’re the ones who seem to thrive off of tearing you down and destroying your very being.

The first time it happens, you don’t really believe it. No, there’s no way that this was who you fell in love with.

So in this way, you try to keep your cracked heart together, pretending it’s still whole. You deny that the whole thing even happened. Because it simply couldn’t be. You’re not that girl, you know what you deserve.

Time passes by and you find someone who makes you forget that your heart was even broken. See, you knew this was just a one-time thing.

But then you find yourself in the same situation, the person you thought the world of one minute manages to prove you wrong – again.

Suddenly, your heart gives in and all those little broken pieces you tried—no, forced to keep together finally shatter, shards falling down into your chest, and your lungs, until you can’t breathe anymore.

For a while, you’re lost. You can’t eat. You can’t function. You can’t think because the entire conception of your relationship has so drastically shifted.

You didn’t just lose your boyfriend or girlfriend, you lost your best friend, your partner, your person.

You might stay with them for a while and simply deal with it because you remember the good things and aren’t ready to give them up. You put effort into this person, this relationship, you can’t just abandon it. So you stick with them. But eventually, they wear you down and your love becomes too frayed at the ends. You couldn’t sew them together, even if you tried.

**So you muster up all your strength and courage to finally cut them out.**

Considering all they did to you, a breakup was the least you could do to them. It’s not revenge when you’re trying to save yourself.

Afterward, you may have cried your entire soul out for weeks on end, but you knew it was the right thing, that it had to be done, because you deserve better.

At the end of the day, as much as you may have loved someone, you have to love yourself just a little bit more.

Just because it happened to you once, or twice, or three times, doesn’t mean it has to happen again.

Even if it takes you a couple of go-arounds, you’ll start to pick up on the signs and red flags. You’ll know what to steer clear of because you’re smarter than that.

Ultimately, you’ll realize that you need to become your own best friend, your own partner, your own person…

Until someday, someone else comes around. By then you’ll know what you deserve, you’ll be smarter, and he’ll be able to prove you right when you think he could be your person.
