When you meet someone that changes your life forever nothing should stand in your way, you should be with this person, you could spend your lifetime searching for that perfect one only to have found out that you had him and you just let him walk away. Many times we are blinded, we aren't able to see when this special someone is right in front of us. For me friendship is the foundation for the greatest relationships, be my friend and show me what makes you get out of bed every morning, show me what makes your heart skip beats, show me what's your passion. I want to know the real you, not some pretentious version of yourself, not someone faking personality to please the world.

I never understood the concept of friendship as I've mentioned before, so when I started making friends I had no idea what was in store for me. I met him on the first day of a new school, He was also new to this school Havenside High and we just clicked, he came up to me and introduced himself, you could clearly see that he was this confident outspoken guy who had not a care in the world, he was polite and friendly towards everyone and I was glad that I was one of the people that he decided to keep in his life. He had this calming effect and he charmed everyone with his dashing and debonair self. He would always take the greatest care of me, he would ask about my day, he would make these silly jokes and he loved to play around, I was always happy around him. He allowed me to be my truest self, not some made up person that I had to be around everyone else. He treated me like I was precious to him, and honestly that's all I've ever wanted, to feel special and wanted, to feel like I belonged somewhere.

As time went by I weirdly started making more friends in this new school, my circle that consisted of a party of one now invited others into it, I became this girl that I never thought I could ever be, I could somewhat say I was popular. I joined the cool crowd and I started focusing more on things that I knew were bad for me.

ENTER REGRET 1

Girls are suckers for bad boys, so clichè yet undoubtedly true. I wasn't immune to this and I had begun to date this guy that was a year older than me, he was in high school with a car and girls swooning over his every move. That may not sound like much but to me it was cool and some how he was interested in me, plain Jane me. I had the biggest internal argument with myself, in fact I had an internal debate over this guy, the pros and cons, and ultimately I decided against my better judgement and went ahead with dating him. I found out that this guy was one of my old neighbours, I knew him from childhood days and I was sure that he recognised me and that's what sparked his interest in me. It wasn't just my better judgement that was against the idea of me dating this guy it was 'his' better judgement too, my now best friend Liam had advised me against dating an older guy but I never listened, I figured he was just being this protective brotherly type, and I knew myself, I'm not one of these naive girls, I'm strong and I can handle anything. How wrong was I. If I had only realized earlier that this was going to be my first real heart break, I would have just listened to Liam and my better judgement.
