A (Suit)Case of The Ex
Emotional baggage, Everyone has it. Let’s face it, most of the time, people who are in college will meet new people. It gets more interesting because now we’re in a place where we dont know everyone, we dont know their dating past, we dont really know who they hang out, we dont really know them period. As the dating progresses, we start finding out more about a person and it’s all sweet and flirty in the beginning, for the most part, but then the emotional baggage kicks in and gets delivered in you’re front door for a sleepover that you won’t be sure how long this bag will be staying. My opinion about emotional baggage is, if you have it, deal with it before you jump into another relationship; don’t be selfish and greedy. I understand people who are almost over it, or have finally come to terms with it, but are still trying to completely clumb and forget the past. But for those who have ex’s with remaining feelings, or they aren’t over their ex and that person sticks on their mind like a virus, or even just the baggage of playing so many people that you have a whole mess to clean up, DO NOT fuck someone else over in order for your ungrateful sad ass to move on. For the people who have watched the O.C, you know about Ryan and Marisa dating, and how Marissa had her “stepping-over” lesbian affair; to sum it up the girl (Marisa) wasn’t completely over Ryan, and ended up getting a girl head over heels for her, but couldnt return the feelings because her heart was not completely healed and ready to be given to someone else. There are people out there who may argue that if you really care about someone, you’ll be there for them, and for you out there, I’m glad you have enough patience to deal with it! I know that if i found the right person, but they till had left over emotions to deal with, that I would stick around and see how much I could do. I am not a quitter; I love. This whole blog is pretty much to say, if you have emotional baggage and you want someone to help you get over it, don’t screw them over…please. Respect that they are helping you, if you don’t see it going anywhere, tell them. Don’t use a person to overcome someone that you couldn’t face on you’re own because like i said, we ALL have emotional baggage to some extent, and maybe the person who is helping you, is already over their baggage, but at the forgiveness stage, and for someone to fuck them over during that process…well it’s just not right. Be smart about every move you make, every decision you chose because whether it’s bad or good, it’s going to go back to you.
