Personal Narrative: Dating Appreciate Things In Life
Appreciate things in life. It all happened when I met a guy name Peter on a dating online app. He messaged me first saying hi and I asked him," what made you go on a dating app? And he said, I recently broke up with my girlfriend and looking for a girl. And we somehow talked back and forth and ended up dating. When I was dating him, I felt like a couple weeks of dating, he was rushing into things such as, holding hands to kissing to making out; made me feel like he does not want to take the relationship slowly, but just wants to kiss and all. When we date, he would text me good night and ask how was my day and he would always call me and see what I was doing, and I was always doing homework or hanging out with my family.
Before our second month, I was on my vacation with my family and I’ve been so busy hanging out with my family, I didn’t really touch my phone at all. A week later, when I came back, he texted me, “I feel like you don’t like talking to me or something” which sounded a bit rude to me. So, a couple hours I replied back, “let’s just be friends”- I wasn’t ready to date, to be honest. However, as months went on, I realized that I let go a nice guy who made me feel like the luckiest alive, and having things in common didn't matter, but the happiness and commitment mattered.
Recently out of nowhere,

Now, I realized if I said yes to hang out with him, things would've been different in a good way. I lost my chance again... I believe that people should not take people for granted and appreciate them before they are gone because it is hard to find nice people that treat you with kindness in this world. Cherish every moment with the people in your life because you never know what will happen to them. Once the person is gone, people will regret their actions, just like me. I guess I didn’t appreciate what he gave me as love and took it for

    We finally moved to North Carolina and I was devastated. I felt like I had to leave behind all of the friends I had just started formulating deeper bonds with. I felt like I had to start over from scratch with making friends and I missed Khalif; and finding out that he contacted me the night before we moved and I missed his call, didn't make things any easier. I never told him I was moving when I found out. I figured since we wasn’t together anymore, why bother. He found out my last day of school because my best friend and I were crying, and another student went back and told him. He approached me before the day was over, and wanted to know why I didn’t tell him I was moving. After we talked, he gave me a hug. I didn’t expect him to try to contact me that night. I didn’t find out he had called until my family and I were well in NC and I checked the caller ID box.…

    When I first heard “When I Was Your Man,” the only thing that went through my mind were regrets as I remember how some of my relationships were in the past. Each and every time that I play the song, my opinions won’t change. According to Mark Knapp’s theory, there were ten stages to a relationship. The stages are initiating, experimenting, intensifying, integrating, bonding, differentiating, circumscribing, stagnating, avoiding, and terminating. I can definitely relate some of these stages to my past relationships.…

    Currently, I have been in a long-term relationship with my boyfriend for the last ten years. I know ten years is a long time however, I have become comfortable in this dead end relationship. It seems that for the past five years, things have changed dramatically. During this time, our communication has not been the same. Managing our relationship, has been quite difficult, it seems to involve a constant power struggle. Because of this dramatic turning point that has taken place in both our lives, it almost appears as our roles have been reversed.

But we haven’t, so we improvise because our prior dating experience dates so far back it’s listed in Webster’s under courting.”…

    Seeing the magical world of Harry Potter light up the silver screen again. Standing in the same room as the Pop Punk band All Time Low. Cracking open the pages of the Norse Gods in Rick Riordan’s Magnus Chase and The Gods of Asgard: The Hammer of Thor. Studying in my dorm room away from home. Why on earth would anyone want to miss out on these things? You see, I struggled with the question what makes life worth living for a long time, I knew that I was pushing on for something, but I could never find the words. I found my answer slowly, adding things that I was living for to the list until I realized that life was worth living for the small things, for the things in the future that you will miss out on if you leave early.…

    I know that it's an immature idea but I still stuck to it. As time grew he noticed that I'm avoiding him, he was so confused to what he did. He would ask multiple times what was wrong, until to the point that he considered it as a punishment. He accepted the fact that we didn't talk to each other anymore. I wanted to prove him wrong, I ended up losing a massive amount of weight in a year. It's good that I didn't starve myself to lose weight. Instead, I set out a good mindset on what I want to accomplish by eating healthier, and by being physically active. Which I would've never considered doing in a year or so before considering I was only in grade five. I'm proud that I was able to put something that put me in misery. Into a better person mentally by making me stronger and less insecure about my body as I did before. If I'm being honest right now, I would have regret if I didn’t get into shape, because now I'm a better person physically, I know I may not look that healthy or skinny compared to others, but I consider what I look like now to be one of the best versions of me. Thanks to what happened before I've grown as a person. I'm great friends with him again and I'm truly feeling good about…

    I believe in love. I believe that love is painful. Love is not when your “lover” walks by and you feel butterflies in your stomach. That is not love, love is the wrenching pain in your heart. The pain you fear will kill you. The unbearable pain, day and night, hour after hour, minute after minute, second after second, until it is done. gone. That is love. Not hugs and kisses, not love songs or love poems. Love is the devil, mean,, cold hearted. That is love.…

    I was never really good at holding back my emotions. I’m known to be ‘the crier’, although I’ve denied it on many occasions. Lou and I were in our flat. Tonight we decided to watch a movie we both thoroughly enjoyed, Bambi. This movie gets me every time, like Titanic, you can’t watch it and not cry, it’s impossible. Unless you’re like some kind of robot or something. I look over to Louis, my eyes filled with tears, trying so hard to hold them back. As I turn my head I see Louis has fallen asleep.…
