All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.

The One that Consumed Me
I don’t know if it was the city or the guy, but I was changed in as little as eight months. Who would have thought I of all people would drop out of college, giving up a once in a lifetime opportunity that some people only dreamed of having? Well, excuse me. It wasn’t what I wanted to do. I’m all for getting an education, but not like that. Not when I could barely make it out of my bed or lift my tired arms to brush the knots from my hair because the other voice in me was too overwhelming. Please tell me one more time that I should have stayed when I called my mother at least three times a week crying my eyes out over shit I couldn’t understand. I knew I’d never make it, so I packed my shit and I ran. I’m good at running. Would have done it a long time ago if it weren’t for the sake of my mom.

Mind the Gap
Can there be too large an age gap in a relationship between a boyfriend and girlfriend? I ask for personal reasons because I am much older than my girlfriend and although we are happy, it’s our age gap that is brought up most by doubters. Personally, I think the argument over our age difference is as relevant as our height difference or eye colour difference. Though I am a foot taller and our eyes are different, that’s still not important.

What Is Love?
When she walks into your life, it isn't with an electric shock, a dramatic weather change, or thematic music. Rather, unlike the movies, it'll be with a whisper of the wind and a shrug of a shoulder under light brown hair in the late summer heat. It'll be silent. She'll take a seat across from you by complete accident. You'll glance her way, perhaps appreciate her natural beauty, and go about the rest of your day without any real reason to remember it thirty years later.

My First Love...
I was 25 years old when I met the most beautiful woman in the world. Her name was Amy and she was 22. She was my first proper girlfriend and she's the love of my life.

Can You Blame Me for Loving You This Much Yet Keep Myself Away From You Instead of Chasing You?
Summary We've dated for five years and had been on and off for ridiculous reasons. I had a lot of reasons why I should had just ended it but I got used to chasing after her. Every time she said "it's over" I blocked her on social media and tried to save money to move somewhere else because it's just so unbearable, but no matter what, you can't run away from your problems.

Do Studies Show that You Meet Your Soulmate Before the Age of 21?
Do studies show that you meet your soulmate before the age of 21? There is always talk of love in the world. It is one thing that a lot of people strive to achieve one day. Meeting the right person is the very tricky part. The society we all live in today, centered on lust, makes it much harder to find someone who doesn’t want to just to use you for all the wrong reasons. But is it a possibility that you walked right past, or even maybe know who your true love is before the age of 21?

Unexpected Firsts
Back propped on the cushioning of an arm rest cornering the room and laid sprawling across the rest of the length of the couch and somewhat over the table was I. In this case "I" was just a bigger somewhat intelligent guy with a habit of being too nice, and a cursed bit of aches that sufficed to be replaced with peaceful feelings at the slightest touch of a womanly hand. I was thoroughly satisfied in the moment spoken of. I had my stomach full and someone laying next to me, head resting see, on my chest and peace was what's best for me.

Me and You
Just about everyone has a seemingly different relationship but, somehow, you are always able to relate to someone else's. Right?

Hidden Feelings
Right now I’m just laying in bed, at 12:13 in the morning full of insecurities. The thing that is on my mind and constantly tugging at my heart are my thoughts about my relationship. I don’t think I’ve ever loved someone as much as I love my current S/O. Although I love him very much—like any other girl in love—I’m still full of doubts and insecurities about our relationship. I worry about things I should have confidence in. I can’t help but think that there could be a girl that is more worthy than I am for him. I feel that perhaps one day, I may not be good enough for him. I worry that one day he’ll see me and realize that he doesn’t love me anymore. The possibility of falling out of love and in love with someone else truly scares me. I’ve seen it happen a few times in my family and I’m scared of that kind of heartbreak. So many scenarios run through my mind so often that I put myself into thinking that that is what’s in the process of happening now. My insecurities about myself don't help at all. I spend so much time thinking about it when I am calling with him that it puts me into a quiet mood. A mood where I don’t know what to say or talk to him about, leaving our phone calls silent and still.

Hesitation
Today my favorite quote—or the most relevant—goes like this: “I’m not the perfect girlfriend, I’ll yell at you, get jealous, be stubborn, over think, and get insecure. But I’ll love you better than anyone.”

Bruised Canvas
How can I explain what it felt like? How can I sit here and explain something that I let happen and some how not blame myself? I didn’t call the police, I didn’t tell anyone, I didn’t care. I kept making excuses for the pain, that way I could convince myself it didn’t exist.

Firstly
Firstly, Thank you for making my last months here some of the happiest times that I have had here and in my life. That one night when I looked back into the car park through the snow changed everything in the most amazing way. Who would have thought that one conversation would lead to this.
