life

the saddest thing in the world is waking up one day and realizing you've grown apart from the person you love. when you've spent nearly 1/5 of your life loving someone, it's hard to picture life without them all of a sudden. but things change, people change. even if you stay the exact same, the other person can change overnight. or maybe you grew up and they didn't. whatever it is, sometimes things don't work out the way you want them to. it's a crossroad where either you try again at your declining relationship or you call it quits and separate. no matter how many nights you spend awake together talking and crying, sometimes things just can't be fixed. best case scenario, you take some time apart and hope absence will make your hearts grow fonder. maybe you will wake up and realize that you're meant to be together. or worst case scenario, you take some time apart and you never come back. we both knew college would put a strain on things, but we never thought it'd do this.
