"It never makes sense while you're living it. It's only when you look back that you can understand it all"

Vent Sesh.

I hate when people think they can come in and out of someone’s life. Fuck, it’s either stay, or don’t ever come back. But you know, people only do that because they know you’d give them 100 more chances. I HATE CONSTANTLY BEING TAKEN FOR FUCKING GRANTED. I hate people who don’t know shit about consistency. I HATE being left behind or blown off (being hung up on, ditched, ignored, etc). Fuck the cold shoulder. I hate when someone knows that they are hurting the person they say they “love”, but they continue to do the things to hurt them. I HATE CRYING. I hate getting my buttons pushed, especially if they know exactly what to say/do to hurt my damn feelings or piss me off. Oh, and after they piss you off, they leave you the fuck alone so you can be mad.. When you’ve asked them to stop already. I hate feeling like an option, or last on a list of priorities. I hate people who play hard to get waaayy too much. Actually, I FUCKING HATE GAMES IN GENERAL. I hate stupid unnecessary arguements that can be avoided. JUST DROP IT before things get bad. I hate when people pick fights. And when the argument has started, other dumb things get brought up, or things that don’t even make sense are mentioned. I hate when people make you beg for their forgiveness, or make you suffer for making a mistake. I hate giving someone what they ask for, but when it’s given to them, they don’t want it anymore. I HATE WHEN PEOPLE DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY WANT. I hate people who think they can have the best of both worlds. At some point, you’re gonna have to figure out what you want. Sorry, life doesn’t work that way. It’s ALL or NOTHING. I hate when people argue about the past. Fuck, it’s over already. You can’t do anything about it so get the fuck over it. ALL YOU CAN DO IS AVOID MAKING THE SAME MISTAKES IN THE FUTURE. I hate people who front. For example, in front of their friends, they talk to you all shady or neglect you, but when it’s just you two, they’re a totally different person. I hate when people think they can talk to you however they want, say anything they want, but when you do the same shit, all hell breaks loose. I hate people who don’t think before they speak, and those who cannot control what they say when angry. Let me tell you, speaking out of anger doesn’t do the situation any good. I hate when people think they can get everything without fighting for it. DIDN’T YOU KNOW, NOTHING WORTH HAVING COMES WITHOUT SOME KIND OF FIGHT. I hate people who don’t try and expect other people to do everything. I hate people who know what they’re doing wrong, but they don’t do anything about it. I HATE WHEN PEOPLE DON’T APOLOGIZE BECAUSE OF THEIR PRIDE. OR PEOPLE WHO THINK A “SORRY” FIXES EVERYTHING, but when it comes to you, you gotta beg and fucking plead for them to forgive you. But after they know you have forgiven them, THEY STOP TRYING. I hate when people are too damn stubborn to realize what they’re doing wrong.. BETTER YET, when people know what they’re doing wrong, but they’re too stubborn to admit it. Fuck, open your damn eyes. I hate when people don’t pull through with their shit. If you say you’re gonna do something, do it. MOST OF ALL, I HATE BROKEN PROMISES. If you say you’re gonna change, DO IT, and do it for good. Don’t change for a couple days, and when you think things have gotten better, go back to the old you.

"Here’s to bein’ lied to, bein’ walked on, used, promised something&fed bullshit. Here’s to seein’ the best in him; not believin’ that he could possibly be as awful as he turned out to be. Here’s to trusting over&over&over again cause’ you really wanted to believe that what he did was a mistake, that he’s changed. Now take this as a lesson learned: Let him go & move the fuck on with your life."

"Believe me when I say you changed me for the better. From now on I look at love differently. I will no longer throw the word around and I will no longer fall for it so easily. I will be careful with my heart so it doesn’t break again, for if it does it may never come back. I thank you for making me realize I have my own two feet I can stand on, and I don’t need a man to make me proud of myself. I know you thought I would not take this well and crawl back to you the second I got a chance, but I’m stronger. And this is my new challenge and I will defeat it. Thanks for helping me realize I’m strong on my own."
