Life is full of surprises.

I thought I was so madly in love that nothing could make me change. Nothing could make me no longer want to be with him. But guess what? It did. Life's so weird that way. I mean, you think that you're SO happy, but then, you sort of look at everything from a little ways away, and you realize, "Wow. I think I'd be way happier in a different sort of lifestyle." I always thought that I wanted somebody, one person, to take care of me, and to treat me like a princess. And when I thought I had that, it turns out that I was taking care of them, and I wasn't being treated like a princess at all. It's like, you think that this terrific thing is happening, but when you actually look at it, you realize that the complete opposite is happening but you were just being clouded by something. For me, it was love.
Love had always been something I wished I could find. And I found it. And it's amazing. I mean, the feeling of love. Being in love with somebody, and what came of it, was absolutely horrible. But knowing that I found that one person who I cared for more than anybody else was incredible. I always thought that being in love would make me want to be with them forever. But I realized that love doesn't necessarily mean that you belong with somebody. It just means that you love them.
I always wanted to do whatever made him happy, but because I was always trying to please him, I forgot to make myself happy. He wasn't making me happy, even though I loved him, and so, when I finally realized that. I started trying to break it off. But it was so hard! I had been with him for more than a year. And I'm in love with him. But when I finally did it, as much as I still miss him, I knew that it was for the best.
"Surprise!" screamed Life.
