If Only I Could Think Straight

Ever gone through that period when you really like someone but you have no idea whether that person feels the same about you?

I find myself sitting here, when I should be studying, thinking about men and the effect they have on us girls. The tears they cause and the smiles that they bring. And every now and again they help us put our lives back together and patch up all the scars.

I am young. And I may be very naive. But I have had my fair share of heartbreaks and what I believe to be love. And every single time there has been that short while at the start when you can't be sure how the other person feels and you find yourself obsessing about it. You over-analyze everything that was said and done when you last saw them. You try to read their minds and understand what their intentions are.

And yes, maybe you facebook stalk them in the hopes of gaining some more information.

But lets face it, WE ARE CLUELESS!!!

No matter how hard we try to climb into their heads we will just never understand... untill THAT moment. Now that moment can either make your day or break your heart but either way you are going to remember THAT moment forever! Most of the time, it's good news. It's that moment that makes your stomach turn and gives you butterflies for months after. But every now and again, our greatest fear is realized, and we find ourselves sitting on our beds wondering what we did wrong.

And this is the problem, because we smother ourselves in self hate. We start imagining fat that we never had, finding faults that don't exist. That tiny pimple on your chin is suddenly the end of the world! Desperate to find something or someone to blame. When actually it comes down to this very simple problem:

You are perfect
You're just not perfect for him!

So stop all this self hate. Pick yourself up, wipe off the dirt and make sure you're in the right frame of mind because when he does come along he will be worth every fall. And don't you dare settle for anything less.
