Damn you got lucky... glad your wisdom teeth removal went relatively smoothly.

i know exactly how you feel about relationships and shiz like that. i've told you before that you are seriously an amazing person; you're kind, you're talented, you're funny as hell... and you deserve someone who will appreciate all of that. you'll find one. if there's anything i've learned whatsoever about relationships from my 1 relationship of my own, it's that good things truly do come to those who wait. i did. your time will come [man, i HATED when people told me that...] and when it does you will know it was worth waiting for.

now if that wasn't the biggest load of absotively TRUE cliches...

<3 much love and T-minus 11 days til we can return to our homeroom discussions... Hah. =]

i remember being your age and thinking the exact same things. there's nothing to pity you on or feel bad for you about, because at some point in our lives, we're all there. empathy is a better word. it's hard when people around you are in these amazing relationships, and you're left to wonder why you feel such a gaping hole in your heart and your life. if you do find someone you're interested in, take it slow and easy. at your age, have fun. and if it turns out to be something special, don't let your age or insecurity hold you down. me and you were good friends my last year of high school, and i shared a lot of my secrets and life with you. i made so many mistakes at your age, and i am still paying for them. i wanted the things you did, got them, and did stupid things without thinking. find it, enjoy it, and don't be too serious too soon. life's too short. experience as much as you can. that said, don't be foolish enough to let a great thing go
