Growing up in America is hard.
Specially if you were born in a different country like me.
I mean all my life all i saw was how this thing that everyone called "love"
doesn't really bring people together but mostly it tear them apart!
So yeah, I always thought I knew better.
I was five steps ahead.
But to be honest, I wasn't as experienced as everyone thought I was.
Hell, I had absolutely no experience at all.
The advices I said to my friends
were all based off what I've either seen or heard.
But here's the catch, its easily said than done.
It's funny when your words just come back and bite you.
For example, I'd advice this girl not to trust a 'guy's word for it'
when they say they'd never hurt you or they'll always love you
blah. blah. blah.
because they most likely have something malicious in their minds.
yeah well that's what i'd tell her, then here comes my turn:
Picture this.
Fourteen Years Old Girl,
Going to her first day of High school,
Got into cheer leading during the summer,
well well well
Here comes a football player,
the name already fit's perfectly.
tsk tsk tsk
players.
If this was some other girl
trying to tell me how each scene played out
i would've cut her off mid sentence.
tell my little 'rules'
and say
hey, if a guy starts talking about marriage
on the first week you two are going out
specially in
freshman year
hes either really creepy,
or he's trying to get in your pant's
no offense but in both case you need to dump him
before you get too attached.
that's exactly what I've told my friends before,
and most never listened,
now I know why.
It's like when you see a car coming your way,
you'd freeze.
I always used to say
"if that was me I wouldn't have hesitated
to get out of the way,"
but that's cause I never knew
when your in that moment
as cheesy as this really sounds
you don't think pessimistic thoughts,
I don't care how skeptic you are,
your gonna be optimistic
because your happy.
because he just said the magic words,
the words to let your gaurd down.
the words you've always wanted to hear come out of your
"dream guy's lips"
And that's exactly why he said it.
He wanted you to hear what you wanted to hear
so he could get whatever he wanted to get from you.
but look.
I was fourteen.
freshman.
and dating a junior.
I
wasn't thinking.
It's hard to when everyone thinks your the 'perfect couple'
peer pressure or whatever.
it's tough.
but hey I guess I really needed to experience it
to know better next time.
but then next time comes around,
and same thing...
so take it from me,
don't get attached.
I'm not saying to be closed off or anything,
I'm saying don't give your all to a guy,
save something for yourself.
Basically,
don't make the guy a priority
when your just an option for him...
take it from me...
I mean I thought I knew all these things,
and I guess I did.
But, what i really wasn't prepared for
was the close encouter,
the close feeling I almost had
with this so called thing
as
LOVE.

P.S
You guy's should share your stories on here.
I would really love to read about your own personal past experiences.
And if you want,
I can give advices
