Opening Your Eyes

We all make mistakes, big or little. My friend, who I care for a lot had recently started dating her childhood sweetheart  long distance. He had a girlfriend, and she told him they wouldn't be able to start any sort of romantic relationship until he was single so he decided to dump his girlfriend for her... She was overjoyed to have this boy to  herself finally.... they had always liked each other. They had only been seeing each other for half a week when he told her he loved her, and she  felt a bit of pressure on her shoulders, so she said the 3 dreaded words back. BIG MISTAKE. She knew she shouldn't have said it back if she never meant it. Anyways, they would call each other every day. They'd text and always keep in touch to try and make the relationship work from so far away. She planned to visit him in the summer since she would always go back home every summer. They were so excited. He had called her up one night and he decided he wanted her to call him a special pet name.... so being a great girlfriend she agreed. It wasn't until a day ago that she saw on his Facebook wall a post from his ex from a week ago calling him the exact same pet name. They got into a huge argument over it and she explained to him how it made her feel knowing he wanted her to call him the same name his ex called him. She felt like he was trying to replace his ex with her by making her the same person. After that fight she gave him another chance... but only to wake up the next morning, look on Facebook and see that the same ex had tagged him in some lame picture that she took of the words "I LOVE _____________" My friend was furious. Like any normal girl, she liked the photo, deleted the boy and texted him saying "I'm done with you, don't ever text or call me again." She proceeded to block his phone numbers from texting, calling and facetimming her. My advice to my beautiful friend is to open your eyes. Don't be completely blind in the presence of love. He was a liar and a fake. Don't beat yourself up about this, and always remember to be honest in love. Don't tell someone you love them back if you don't. It's less messy. I hope he realizes what he's lost girl.. Don't feel broke or upset, you deserve better and you'll get better. Ladies out there, don't let a man have the opportunity to do this to you. If he broke up with his girlfriend for you, what makes you think he wont break up with you for another girl, or worse, his ex. Hope you learned your lesson J.
