From high school sweethearts to cheaters then to the busy star athlete, don't forget about the pathological liars, us girls don't see ourselves finding love. We are looking for a guy who meet our basic standards and needs, but they continue to disappoint. Men after men followed with tears after tears. You could call these "love" stories tragic (if you are going to be dramatic) but I like to call them lessons. Probably some of the most painful lessons a woman can experience in her younger years, laid out in a book for other women. Let me save you the hurtful experiences but leave you with hope that there is a man out there for you.
xoxo,

Love At First Sight (COMPLETED)( A Student/Teacher Romance )
I stared at him for a moment and he did the same, both of us daring the other to say one more smart remark. "Don't you have a class to teach?" I asked raising an eyebrow. He smirked "Your right Ms Jones, and with that I'm leaving. Try not to day dream about me during Mr Richards's lesson" he said cockily making the class laugh again. I gave him a fake smile "Same for you. It wouldn't be very apealing if you got a hard on during your next lesson" I scoffed. The class erupted into laughter while Mr Anderson stared at me wide eyed and shocked. Oh I think I hit a button. He then grinned wickedly "I'm offended, and you have detention" he said crossing his arms over his chest obviously enjoying having power over me.

Evolution
There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING... HARMFUL THEMES INCLUDING MENTION OF SUICIDE, SELF HARM, AND RAPE. THIS HAS EXPLICIT CONTENT. RECOVERY AND AWARENESS IS THE PURPOSE OF SHARING.

Because of Karson
Dakota is just like every other 17 year old high school senior. Or that's what everyone thinks. Everyone sees Dakota as this funny, sarcastic, and caring girl. What people don't see is how much she is truly suffering inside. People don't know that the smile she always wears is completely fake. They don't know what's really going on at home. They don't see the bruises she has to cover up every morning. They don't see her having to step up to take care of her two younger siblings. She puts on a fake smile as soon as she walks through the school doors and slowly builds her walls up higher as each day goes on. She thinks no one will ever see past her facade...that is, until three new bad boys come strolling into town taking an automatic interest in Dakota. And one certain bad boy can read her like an open book. Will Dakota eventually let these three bad boys in? Or will she keep everything in until she finally reaches her breaking point?
