I hold onto her as she cries on my should "Shhh its ok, its going to be ok", I tell her as I rub her back trying comfort her. 

" B-b-but he cheated on me" she says trying to control her sobbing.I look at her with sadness in my eyes and keep a mental note to myself " don't let this be you". Snapping out of my selfishness I hug her tighter.  

I pull her face up so she meets my eyes " You are a independent girl and you don't need this, repeat it with me. I don't need this" I look at her dead in the eye and make her repeat this. I get up as I hear the bell for fourth period and walk out of the girls bathroom grabbing my bag.  

My friend Carmen rushes to catch up with me and tugs my arm " Another cheater huh?" she looks at me in a disbelieving look. I don't even have to answer so she sighs and we continue to walk to class. 

As I try and focus in class I cant help but pity the girl for this abomination,she doesn't deserve that. I nod my head and just sit back thinking about how better this life would be If i could control love. I would pair all these girls with the best decent guys in this world, make sure their happy and in love. Don't get me wrong I help out guys as well but my forte is helping those in real need.  

I check my phone and realize that Ive got seven unread messages from numbers Ive never seen before. Note to self try and update blog so you get less text messages. 

" Psst Cory" Lili whispers from behind me. 

I turn quickly to ask but instead she throws a paper ball at my face, which makes the back of the class laugh. Knowing Im going to get in trouble with Mr.R i quickly grab the note and stuff it into my bra, which only makes the class even more.  

" Class" Mr.R says in a serious tone, but ends up looking at me " Cory would you please turn around and tell me why your facing the back of the classroom?" he says with curious tone in his voice.  

"Oh you know, Im stuffed from all that chicken I had for lunch?" I say lightly grabbing my stomach so he buys my horrible story. Im a hopeless liar, what can I say? 

"shes stuffed alright" a voice from the back says. I turn around looking for the smart mouth " Ill stuff something alright" I say in a threatening tone. The class only giggles and Mr.R only gives me do I look stupid to you look. 

The rest of the time there I sit back in my chair cursing at the ground below me. Stupid kid, and screw you Lili for throwing the note! Agh stupid turkey... Not knowing why the hell i cursed a turkey I walk out of class before Mr.R comments on my ugly moment in class. 

Lili catches up to me and laughs at my face and once shes done she asks " Did you read the note?". I give her the ARE YOU KIDDING ME look.  

"you think i had time! Besides its still where i left it" I say pointing at my bra. She looks to her sides and quickly puts her hand down my shirt and grabs its. She holds it out for me " Ok here, read it" she says.  

I swear if she keeps doing that, I will earn a reputation I don't want.I grab the note and read it and once I'm done I smack her. 

" Ouch that hurt! what was that for?!" she says rubbing her soon to be bruised arm.  

" you embarrassed me in class for something you could have told me after class! " I look up asking God why.  

" Look Dili works in the office and this is valuable information, we finally get new guys in this dumb school! " she says squealing her ass off. Oh boy, her and boys.

Once school ends , Lili and the gang sit with me as I tell them the story about the girl in the bathroom. Mins later a couple of classmate come up to me for some love advice. Ive been helping almost everyone here with their love life's. I cant help it, its what I do best and I can say I do a better job than Cupid himself.

I go home and find my grandpa modeling his pajamas in the living room, he has this thing where he thinks he's a model. Mom is in the kitchen and as I enter she hands me the phone to my dad. " tell him...duties call" I whisper and then run up to my room and begin to upload my blog , Ive managed to update during the summer but now that school has begun its become a struggle and its only the second week of school! So far girls are the ones in trouble and a couple of guys here and there trying to ask a girl on a date. The kind of help I give is easy, state the problem I help. I wont help a guy get into a girls pants or how to cheat and not get caught.  

You may be asking yourself why do I this? I had my heart broken once and once was enough to break me. I decided that love wasn't for me but that doesn't mean it isn't there for the rest of the world.

For my fellow guys,  

A lot of you have been asking me on how to approach a girl, well easy. Smile, start a conversation and wing it. Being part of one of the most complicated species I can honestly say that if you wing it, you'll survive. Try not to make the conversation boring or else you'll have the girl running for the hills and good-bye prom date, future wife, etc. Freshen up and brush your teeth, and show charisma. Its not easy but you don't want to end up like Flynn from the movie Say Something waiting until you graduate to talk to the girl. If anything that girl will be long gone with a guy like Harry ( referring to the movie when Harry met Sally) .

To my ladies, 

If you want to approach a guy, remember the advice Bella gave? Ladies your independent and who would say no to a dashing girl like yourself? You have nothing to loose but do freshen up, upgrade your look from 10 to a 20 and remember smile. Guys like to approach a girl who's easy to talk to. You wouldn't want to be like Alison Reynolds from the Breakfast Club, even though that quiet duck turns into a beautiful swan she was at first hard to grasp.DONT LET THAT BE YOU. 

XOXO

I walk into fourth exhausted I pull my hood over to cover my face not wanting to look at life, I simply cant with life these days. The emotions I go through, and the stuff I have to experience is too much. Can life take a pause for humanities sake and for my own?  

Walking over to my desk I notice a guy just sitting on my chair, as the bell rings everyone is in their seats but me. Great, I lean on the table and wait for Mr.R to capture the beautiful situation I'm in. I would sit in Collins seat but thats his seat and it be awk for him to come later and to be seatless again.  

" Cory what is it now?" Mr.R asks. 

" Well I remember you assigning me this seat but now this brute-"  

" uh hey sunshine this brute has a name" the boy behind me says, already irritated I look back and shoot him a death glare.  

" Collin was switched out and this young man is now your partner-"  

" Mr.R if your trying to scare me, your doing a first rate job here" I tell him in the best way I can walking my way to my new seat.  

" well who would want that .." Mr.R says in a tiresome tone. I look up to the ceiling and mumble under my breath " well your a fat lot of help" I say.  

" your a nut" he says. 

"and your a pest" I shot back at him.  

We glare at each other and sink into our seats, and think about how the hell Im going to handle life.
