As always, excellent. Perhaps not the actual event and your tangle of emotions, but the way you convey it is beautiful. |

Oh gosh, I didn't even answer your reply because I was driving back to the country that day (if I recall correctly). I saw your kind words and really appreciated them. I didn't recognize your username though, but I see now that you do indeed exist on the SM radar! |

Some relationships simply have a time and a place. Yes, he may have been your first kiss, the first person to whisper that he loved you, the first person you slept with - and these were beautiful things. And he was quite possibly the proper person for these things. Maybe he knew how to gently bring you out of your shell or make you smile when you felt sad.
But sometimes, the connection fades away because things get hard. People change and life doesn't stop for anybody. Appreciate it for what it was. Of course it will hurt that maybe he won't always have that twinkle in his eye for you, but there's a big world out there. You're twenty-two. There are so many boys to kiss, so many people to meet, so many things to do. You clearly have a heart full of compassion and someone with that sort of innate kindness deserves to be loved back completely. You can do it. You'll be okay. |

It seems like you're doing the things you have to and eventually it will all make sense. I hope you decide to spend time with your friends instead of running from them. Friends are there for you when you're sad and they want to love you in one way or another. Happy birthday! |

Oh, NomadMonad. <3 Merci.
I have not stuck my tongue down a stranger's throat, nor do I plan to. It just seems like an easy quick-fix when I'm frustrated, but I'm going to make good life decisions. |

This is bloody brilliant. But even then, if you're travelling and trying to escape her, that's still saying something, isn't it? I did the 'free' thing after my previous break-up in the fall and I think I'm good for a long-ass time. It just got depressing. None of those guys ever made it past date 2 with me (except for the guy I eventually dated). I just... sigh. You miss it. |

I actually laughed out loud. I fail to see him as deliberately malicious. My understanding is still that he is far too worried about the uncertainties of the future that he can't handle another thing on his plate. |

I don't know if either of you will ever see this response back, but I'm going to write it anyways because I want to.
PutPutty: Thank you for the kindness. I like being around people and I enjoy the days I can even just be alone and studying or reading on campus without even engaging. Being around people and humans is just... lovely.
NomadMonad: Thank you. And yes I sure am. Some lovely pastors were in the restaurant I waitress at the other day and we struck a good conversation. They prayed for me then and there. On Friday, my friend and I are venturing to celebrate Good Friday.

My friends laugh, saying this is my 'slutty stage', but apparently my definition of slutty means kissing and not coitus haha. I think I'm just making up for lost time. And I think I'm pretty open about what I want and what I don't want. I know I am. If I go on a couple dates with a fellow and he seems interested in something serious, I'm very clear: "Listen. I don't want a relationship right now. You're a good person and I'm not going to screw around with that because that's not fair." (Which is why usually I go on two dates and then I have to stop seeing the guy. I know it isn't fair to play with feelings and I know I have to watch myself, because I have a tendency to get carried away.) A couple of weeks ago, I declared that I was going to slow down and try to figure out how to be alone, because I know that is important. I've never been able to have a clear shot with Pear, and I just wanted to know. I feel like it was something I had to find out before I moved on with my life. I'm not moving back home, and who knows what things will be like the next time I come to visit. It seemed as good of a shot as any.
You're right, though. I don't know what I want. Well... actually, I do know what I want right now. I want to kiss people I want to kiss and I want to try my best not to hurt anyone. |

Oh, I just meant that because our paths in academia and our interests are polar opposites, we can't bond over academia. Our classes/work/etc aren't even remotely similar so we can't even have the link of, "Let's talk school!" |

Very insightful. Thank you. Again, I think it is all about the search... it is kind of like I'm at the top and I'm sitting up here like, "Now what?" As for the down-to-earth comment... thank you very much haha. I'd like to think I'm usually pretty down to earth (but then again, I don't even KNOW my privilege half the time... 'How much does it cost to register my car?! Oh my gosh, I will just give the bill to my dad!') |

I listened to this song right after being broken up with, so I applied a romantic sentiment to the lyrics. I think the lyrics are vague enough that the song can fit to what you need it to. However, I think that the meaning Mumford |

I was so delighted to find this at the end of Youth & Young Manhood!
I think the meaning is pretty clear -- if not, the first response in this thread explains the meaning well.
Being from a small town, I can connect to this closely, especially the chorus. Small towns have a certain humility to them -- cordiality, hospitality, etc.. -- but all are bred with an arrogance. I'm sure you could go to a small town anywhere, and they'd spit at the neighbouring town's name (even though that town is the exact same as their own). I know the people in my town place our little village higher than the rest, but really, all of these petty little towns are the exact same.
And the people in the small towns are so proud, so arrogant, so content. "But everybody says this place is so beautiful, and you'd be crazy to say goodbye. But everything's the same, the town's so pitiful, and I'll be getting out, as soon as I can." |

I wanted to post this comment before I read other people's opinions, just to see how far off I am.
I always have read into this as a friendship song, probably because the first lyrics I could really make out were, "You kick the bucket, I'll swing my legs, always remember the pact that we made..."
The first verse especially makes me think of an opposite sex friendship, where the two are absolute best friends, but feelings got in the way and they kind of hate each other, but their friendship is undeniable. As it goes on, it makes me feel like they're saying, "Well, you bitch, I hate you, but you're still my best friend and I promised you we'd be in it for the long haul. You kick the bucket, I'll swing my legs."
I used this song as the closing track for a drama production. As the lights would come back up for stage strike, I couldn't help but dancing to it, singing along. I wonder if I got docked marks for that. Haha. |

| Hedley – Sweater Song Lyrics

Apparently, on MuchMusic, Jacob Hoggard explained the meaning of the song, saying something like, "I wrote this song about this girl in Saskatchewan. She and I exchanged sweaters." He named the girl and her hometown. He wore her sweater on MTV Canada for their first interview about their most recent album.
I know this, because I know the girl he wrote it about. My cousin just recently got engaged to her. Her and Jacob had a thing once, and he was going to choose her over the woman he married, but she refused. It's funny, because my cousin said when this song comes on, she gets mad and turns it off, as does her fiancee. |

Total word. I've been to better concerts, but these guys were like the highlight of the show for me. LOVED them. I had no idea they were this band. I was certain this song was called Let It Go, and it was by Cavo, but a quick Youtube search proved me way wrong. Nevertheless. Sweet Thing = super good. |

In a KOL special I watched, Caleb says, "It's about burning everything standing in your way. The song says that." I think it is about giving up on trying to make everyone else happy, and gaining a sort of independence. |
