Are You Lonesome... Tonight?

 I’m as single as single could get. I’m not talking to anyone. My love life consists of watching romantic comedies, listening to stupid love songs, and envying those cute couples on Instagram. It’s not that I hate being single, it’s just that when I do see those couples’, I can’t help but wonder why don’t I have someone. Even if we aren’t dating someone to talk to, someone to send sweet texts to (and receive), and someone to be my Man Crush Monday (and their Woman Crush EVERYDAY! chessy I know).  It’s not that there’s any thing wrong with being single, it’s the loneliness that come with being single! If you’ve been single as long as I have, you start to get tired of the same old routine. Friday nights consisting of either hanging with some girl friends, or watching yet another stupid love movie! I mean c’mon. Eventually, it gets old. 
        I’m now at that point in life where, I am looking for something more than “Oh, you’re a great friend” and  “I wish more girls were like you”. REALLY!!! That’s probably one of the sweetest yet most friend-zoning lines EVER. Yeah, I’m flattered that you enjoy our friendship and all but OUCH. You might as well have said that I’m like your adorable little sister. And no one wants to date their little sister. (Unless your Jace from The Mortal Instruments.) How would you like it if the guy that your interested in just compared you to their little sister? My guess is not that much, understandably
Sooo, what do we do now? One thing that I have made myself swear not to do is chase after a guy. No! I believe that the guy should do the pursuing. I realized that it helps them feel more manly. (I mean whatever floats your boat though). And now we wait. Now don’t get mad. You’re probably thinking I wrote all of this just to tell you guys to do what you’ve already been doing. Yes. It’s just to remind you that everything happens when it should. That knight and shinning armor will come along, at the right time. So, just sit tight, relax, and enjoy your teen years. Hang out with friends. Meet new people. Try new foods. Have fun!  


This blog was geared more towards girls today, but in the next few days, I’ll do something for the guys.

Perspective

     There isn't one person on this earth that you will always agree with. Even married couples' have differences of opinions. Best Friends. Teachers and students. And of course, parents and their kids. But why? We all have a different perspectives on things. I heard the best explanation for this over the weekend. We are both looking up into the clouds and I see a unicorn, but you see a dinosaur. Who's right? Who's wrong? The answer to both is neither. Because our perspective is different. We can both sit there and choose to argue about it, but that won't change anything. I will still see a unicorn and you will still see a dinosaur. 
     But what does perspective have to do with teenagers. Teenagers see life differently then anyone else. WHY? I think it's because we're at a point in our life when we are open to a lot of different things. Where adults are set in there ways, and majority of the time they don't want to hear other peoples' opinion. There are things that I'm open to now, but when I was a kid I always said NO WAY JOSÉ! And, at first it was weird and at times a little scary, but because my perspective has changed those things aren't so bad. Like growing up, I always said that I would never like country music, but now I find that it's really good music. 
     Another thing that I don't like is when adults try to tell us that our perspective is wrong! Like excuse me? It's my perspective! MINE! I will stand by it 100% and defend it if I have to. I understand if you don't agree with it, and maybe it might be wrong. Then show me how it is wrong. When someone just comes out and says "you're wrong" it just makes me SO mad. But,  by explaining and showing then it really does help us. Let me know in the comments below if you're the same way. 
     Well, that's it for today. Let me know blog ideas that you guys want in the comments below, and you can always e-mail me whenever if you ever need someone to talk.
