well, i'm a horrible writter so bare with me...I have always had bad luck with guys. I thought that had changed when i started dating this guy who i thought was so cool. I checked him out every day for weeks when he came into my work.After a while we met up at a mutual friends party and started dating. After like 3 months i find out that he's an alcoholic. A really bad one. We stayed together for almost 4 years. I was so in love with him(or so i thought at the time.) and so I tried to get him help, and tried to help him myself. He just didn't want to stop drinking, he even said so himself. So i spent most of my time watching him and taking care of him when he did drink too much and pass out.If the drinking wasn't enough, there was a fair amount of verbal abuse that went on and physical, mainly because of how drunk he'd gotten. I rarely ever saw him sober the whole 3 and a half years. He wound up losing 3 jobs because of his drinking. And to top it off, while I was at work busting my ass, he was out and about trying to screw anything that moved. At this point,towards the end of the 3 and a half year "relationship" i FINALLY just had enough. I just couldn't take anymore. I was so physically and emotionally drained. I FINALLY realized that booze was more important that me, his family, everything. So, i broke it off with him. Just like that. A couple of days later, he came to my house drunk off his ass,banging on my door non stop. I wasn't going to answer! Well, i had to call the cops on him because he was carrying a gun on him. I haven't hear from him since i put him in jail. This goes to show that love is blind. I was dumb enough to stay with a jerk like that for so long because i "thought" i was in "love." well love doesn't exsist. No one should ever treat another person that way.I wouldn't wish my experience on my worst enemy. Anyway, my point wasn't to get pitty or sympathy. I just hope other girls will be careful, and think with their heads and not their supposed hearts. Because your heart will fool you and blind you from the truth.

It was love at first sight, I swear. Our date had been preplanned by me with my parents aproval (at the time I was 12) and nothing could possibly go wrong. My mother drove me to the spot and I clung onto her arm as we walked up the lavish grand stair well where my lover resided. Keeping the butterflies down, I tried to act casual, “Pshhh,” I told myself, hoping to convince other’s around me, “I do things like this all the time.” A representative of my love came out, dressed in uniform to talk to my mother. After a quick little chitchat bewteen the two, all things were set, and finally, I could be with my love. I sat patientally and waited for it’s arrival as the represenative went to the backroom. After what seemed like hours that passed by I saw it. All 2.5 inches of it. So sleek and black and shiny. So new. So Perfect. My first iPod, my first love. Till death do us part it was, we had a great run, my first iPod and I.

I fell in love with my best friend, four years ago. He was amazing, funny, sweet, sensitive... and although I never told him how I felt, I knew he must've had some crazy feelings about me too, because he put up with me at my worst, and helped me through every issue I had.People always said I had no idea what love was, but I know it. Four years later, and our friendship, and everything around it, has fallen apart. It's been nearly nine months, and I still hate seeing him with his new girlfriend, I hate the fact we fell apart without any explanation. Sadly to say, I still love him with my whole heart. That's my sad and sorry love story

It's simple enough. I fell in love, time passed, people changed, I fell out of love. It's hard to say whose fault it is, anyway. Thing like this happen.

i dated my first boyfriend for 2 and a half years. at first it was great but as time went on he became really depressing and was always putting me down and making me feel stupid. i told him this but he never thought he did anything wrong. during the last month of our relationship i started liking someone else and i told my boyfriend. he got really upset but i told him i would get over this little crush which i did. well our relationship never got any better so i ended up finally breaking up with him in july of this year. well just 2 weeks ago he tells me that throughout our relationship he liked someone else. so i dont get how he got mad at me for liking someone for a couple weeks when he liked someone else through out our 2 1/2 year relationship. now hes dating a girl 2 years younger and tries to make me jealous. i am so happy i dumped him.

This happened this summer. I had a hit a rough patch with my boyfriend of 3 years. He was away at school in Nebraska and I was finishing up college in California. The distance was starting to get to me and I soon realized that the only reason that I was still in the relationship was to make him happy, not me. So, I ended it, crying the whole time because I felt terrible for putting him through this. But, later that summer I met someone who had gone to school with my friend (he was 2 years younger). He was in the area for an internship, but went to school and lived up north. He was beautiful and nice and just everything you could ask for in someone. When his internship ended I was in Florida celebrating my graduation from college with a friend. Instead of going back home (up north) right away, he stayed to pick me up from the airport.
Now you would think that this is a happy story, I had just broken up with my boyfriend and found someone great right away, but unfortunately that isn't the end. He ended up going back up the next day (after the airport) and we kept in contact for a little while. Trying to plan trips, when I would go up there and he would come down to southern Cali, etc. However, not long (maybe a month) of him moving back, he just stopped talking to me. I tried to initiate contact, but that backfired. So I feel terrible, because I felt that I had made a real connection with him, and he just ignores me. What should have been a great summer romance (possibly more) just crashed and burned.

i've been friends with this boy since kindergarten and he's my best friend. when i was in 6th grade he told me he liked me but i still thought boys had cooties. two years later i liked him and i still do and now im in my junior year of high school. we like each other on and off and it never clicks at the same time. i tell him i still like him every once in a while but he says it's weird since we known each other for so long. i hope one day it comes to him that he likes me as much as i like him and it's not like one of those stupid myspace bulletins where the two best friends are in love and don't tell each other and when one dies the other finds a love letter that person wrote to them. it's really weird how every quiz i take on facebook hints to him. i really feel like every taylor swift song is about me. "can't you see babyyyyyy, you belong with meeeeee" lol

okay here i go...
so in middle school i really like this guy and he happened to be my best friend. i wanted to tell him how i felt but i just couldn't find the courage to because i was afraid of what he would say. while i was trying to figure out how to tell him how i felt, a rumor started going around class that he was going to ask me out to the school dance cause he liked me. i told him "is it true? do you like me?". and he said "yea. so... you wanna go with me?" i told him yes happily and i couldn't believe that my dream had come true. i went out and bought a dress and everything that same day. about a week before the dance, he started hanging out a lot with this popular girl named Briona. him and briona would hang out everywhere. i didn't pay much attention to it because well she was popular. most-oops i mean everyone wanted to be her friend, boy or girl. we agreed that we would meet up in front of the school at 4:30. i started waiting at 4:10. it was 4:50 already and i thought "it's okay, he's just late. i mean his grandmother had to bring him anyway and she lives far". at about 5:10 i called him, only to see him pass by me with his arm around Briona and walk into the building. before he walked in he told me "wow, your such a loser. you believed that crap? why would i like you? guess what h*, you just got stood up". my heart just sunk. i couldn't believe it. what caused him to treat me like that after being friends for 7 years? and you know what
? i didn't take that crap. i went right in after him and told him " i don't care what you call me. Okay, so maybe i am stupid for believing you. But do i give a damn? there's a bunch of other guys much better than you." "i could say the same thing. that's why i'm with her" he said and he pointed his chin towards Briona. "yea...but you don't have the bait" i told him. Briona giggled and then he glared at her. she made a face and she was like "yep...you don't have the bait. what are you doing treating her like that? we're sooo over" she got up and me and her went to go dance with the rest of the crowd. i feel sad when i remember that, but I'm glad he learned a lesson. I kept my dignity, and his girlfriend saw him for what he really is.

This needs to be a little long for you to understand it. But it's worth it I promise you, I'm pouring my heart out here..
I tend to be really kind to people, which means some of them take it the wrong way and think I fancy them. I fell in love with this girl I knew really well, mainly from the Internet but we usually talked via video call so we could see and hear each other. And I fell for her hard. I usually fall for older boys, so falling for a younger girl(even if it was only by a year) was scary. I didn't know I liked girls and at first I was scared and embarrassed. I knew she was bisexual, she had told me. Then one of my friends introduced me to one of her friends, Daniel. He was really sweet to me, but I couldn't love him. All I thought about was Danni(the girl) But I was nice to Daniel, I couldn't be mean just 'cause I loved someone else. Then he asked me out. I've never said no, I don't know how. And I figured 'cause Danni lives about 3 hours away it'd never work. So I said yes. We kissed once or twice, and I felt nothing. When I was with him I felt like I was cheating on Danni. I'd been going out with him for about a week, then Danni's friend started talking to me on msn. She told me Danni wanted her to let me know she thought she loved me. My heart jumped and dropped at the same time. I told her about Daniel, and told her to try and tell Danni that I need to talk to her. I admitted the whole thing to Danni and she understood, she said that "true love waits." And it's some of the best advice you could give. I went on a family holiday we go on every year, which turned out to be near Danni's. So her mum booked a holiday there too and me and Danni had the time of our lives, I knew I loved her. But I was with Daniel. Then a month or so later, he's driving me mad but I don't have the guts to dump him. My parents have met Daniel a few times and they love him, I know if I dump him they'll question me. And I haven't even told them I like girls, never mind I'm in love with Danni. She sleeps over mine two nights just before Halloween, and again, it's all fun. We get on so well. Then after that I go over hers for two nights, again time of my life. And every night we said "I love you" to each other before going to sleep. And that meant the world. I usually get up every half an hour when I sleep at night, but with her I slept the whole night. I come home and I miss her. This is where it gets a bit touchy. I used to be a heavy self harmer and drink my parents vodka at early hours in the morning. I miss Danni so much, and I was so fed up of how my family treat me. So I went down and I downed a lot of the vodka. I make my way back up, falling a lot and eventually get to my room. I don't remember much, but I texted Danni, opening up again. And I also texted Daniel, telling him to stop loving me. The next day he asked me what I meant, and I have the guts to end it there, with an explanation, but leaving out Danni. Once that's done I feel like a weights lifted off. He got over me in a day and tried hooking up with one of his friends. Me and Danni, however, are waiting for the xmas holidays, to get the time off school to see each other again. And I have my whole life planned out, revolving around her. But I still have to put up with the homophobic shit my parents, sister and school friends tend to say. None of them know I love another girl, but when they do find out I'll be with Danni, happy. And that's all that matters. Sorry for writing so much, I tend to write a lot. I hope this one wasn't too long to even be considered. Thanks for the chance to win. I love you guys so much. x
