i. january
the feeling of another's hands on your thighs will not make losing him hurt any less. you loved him deeply, more than anyone before. give yourself time, darling. time will heal everything. 

ii. february 
don't wait for words you'll never hear. he doesn't love you; he only wanted you because toying with you was entertaining. don't fool yourself. 

iii. march
you are more in control of your life than you realize. do the things you always wanted. stay out until 3 am singing karaoke. fall in love with someone new. be fearless. 

iv. april
you are capable of being loved. and boy, did he fall in love with you. you were enchanting and mysterious and bright. you longed to illuminate his darkness. 

v. may
listen to your heart. sometimes love is one-sided. you learned this with the other boy, the one who broke your heart. sometimes you have to do the heartbreaking. 

vi. june
let go. you have to forget about the one who broke your heart and you have to stop stalling and leave the one you do not love. 

vii. july
don't be afraid of new things. try being a vegetarian. dye your hair the color you were always too afraid to go for. swim with the sharks for once. 

viii. august
sometimes things don't work out. you don't have to feel guilty for ending an unhealthy relationship. 

ix. september
friends aren't always forever. sometimes they wield the sharpest knives. just ask julius caesar. 

x. october
heartache can only get to you as long as you let it. a year is far too long to hold onto a boy who has long since forgotten your name. 

xi. november 
you're not in love with him anymore; you only want to be. you know you're falling for another, but you're afraid. don't be. 

xii. december
just kiss him.
