Maybe I was over exaggerating a bit, but I feel that phrase could have been the the story line of a great Blockbuster hit. In the song "Closing Time" by Semisonic, there's a line that says, "New Beginnings are born from the End of Old Beginnings." Isn't that something? There is some truth to what the one hit wonder band is implying. New things form from old things closing. Hence the song title, "Closing time."
Anyways, back to where I was going with this post. How do we know when things start to end? Will the oceans rise? Will the earth beneath our feet tremble? I'm questioning this because I have come to a point in my life when I need to make a decision whether it is time to end something that has basically been with me throughout my high school career.
Let me tell you a little back story about myself, I am currently a senior in high school and I have been with the same guy FOREVER. The guy is also a year older than me, so he is currently attending the local university. We don't see each other on a regular bases because I'm busy and he's busy. Now my problem is, how do you end it with someone that you're comfortable with, someone you've had so many firsts with, someone who you once thought you we're going to be with forever.
Disclaimer: For those adults or older kids who are reading this, please don't post any rude remarks or smirks about how I'm a young naive girl and the war in Syria is more important about this blog post because if that's the case, click or type this link in your address bar: www.cnn.com.
Back to whatever's been bothering me, the truth is, I'm not even sure if I wanna break it off. Maybe you're right close minded readers, I am naive. I decided to start this blog just so I can write about it and maybe the vast knowledge of the internet can lead me to an answer. Now that I'm nearing my exit date out of high school, I'm really starting to think about re-evaluating my life. On top of all the things already on my plate (SATs, Applications, Scholarships, AP Classes), I also have to worry about my failing relationship with my Forever Guy. Its tough and its gotten pretty bad that my physics teacher asked me if I had any friends because I'm always walking around by myself.
So I call out to you, oh great, majestic, magical INTERNET. How do you know when its time to let go? What are the signs of an apocolyptic-break-up? Help me oh great ones. Help me figure out what I should be doing.
-xoxo
