I really love thecollegecrush sometimes. Granted, perusing the “singling” tab doesn’t always fulfill my need for affirmation, but I still do enjoy their articles even if I don’t believe every single word.
But anyway, this post reminded me to live by something I think I randomly read on Tumblr years ago: “If someone really likes you, you’ll know.”
Okay, so a lot of people probably have something to say in terms of exceptions to that rule, but there are always exceptions to a rule. Let’s lay those aside for the time being, and focus on the core of it. If someone is actually, truly, really into you, it won’t be hard to tell and they’ll probably do something about it. Especially now that we’re supposedly in the time of our lives when being bashful and secretive is so “high school.”
I’m at peace with myself now, and I realized I really am, finally, a hundred percent. It took me over a year (what a waste of time!) to accept that it’ll never happen and to walk away. Rejection, even the silent kind, is so hard but I’m learning to take it in stride.
College, when will you finally come to fruition?
