Why not to meet the parents

I'm not saying that you should never meet your boyfriends parents, in fact i think it can be a brilliant bonding experience, not necessarily the other way round as girls parents can be very protective but a boyfriends parents always seem to be welcoming to a girlfriend. The problem is when you break up.

I think if you are under twenty years old, its not likely that you will marry the guy and a break up will likely happen. When i first got together with my ex boyfriend i used to go to his house nearly all the time, and of course because of this i would see his parents a lot. They are really nice, i liked them straight away. Then his birthday came around and his dad asked me if i wanted to go out to dinner with them, and before that he would have a driving experience. I was really excited to spend time with them as part of the family, and whilst he was driving i spent two hours getting to know his parent. We talked about so much, and they even joked about getting him to but me an expensive birthday present. Afterwards we went out to dinner and the night ended very sweetly with him falling asleep on my shoulder.

Fast forward a month and he had broken up with me. The breakup was hard but I'm finally starting to get over him, the thing is his sister is a good friend of mine, so i still see his parents a lot, and every time they smile at me, and wave through the window of their car when they see me walking. Its really hard to respect the fact everything is over and then smile at his parents and listen to their stories.

My Heart

Here is a little piece of writing about my heart.

A few years ago we were so young, so happy,

Then I ended it all, something had changed,

A year later, just a few months ago,

I realised what, it was my heart.


Maybe I wasn’t ready, for what I felt,

Maybe I didn’t realise what I had,

But I let you go,

And I wanted you back.


So I watched for a while, tried to understand,

You were different to how I remembered,

But in some ways the same,

My heart had changed back.


Then the day came you told me you felt the same,

Our reunion was amazing, like no time had passed,

Only my feelings were stronger,

But yours had faded.


The whole time I could see that change in you,

You cared so much less,

Yet I still felt for you,

I was too scared to lose you.


Then the day came when you ended it all,

I understood your pain those two years ago,

My blood ran cold, my emotions gone,

I missed you already.


I sat around and watched you move on,

The pain stabbed my heart,

I couldn’t move on,

Maybe I could if I knew why.


Now I do my best for us to stay friends,

It’s hard to be around you,

But I can’t risk losing you,

Not completely.


Then my heart warms again from a very strange source,

Someone I wouldn’t have looked at twice before,

A flirt here and there,

And my heart starts to mend, again.


I know what I had before wasn’t love,

And neither is what I have now,

But it could be one day,

When I finally understand my heart.

Valentine's Day

Today is the day to spend with the one you love, or at least the one you like. I’m sure not everyone has heard the story of Valentine, and I’m pretty sure you don’t want to but one thing I will say is it is the love story that was so powerful, people still honour it today.

So use today wisely, if there is someone you like, today is the day that you should tell them, it’s not too late. If you a guy, this is the day when most single girls wish they had a guy who was interested, and if you’re a girl, I’m pretty sure guys would want a date too!

So take a risk, it doesn’t have to be expensive, just give them a card to show them you care, maybe you might get a date!
