In this week's episode, I discuss in detail my first and only relationship. Though a lot of people might see high school relationships as temporary with no serious meaning, it is something that has had a profound impact on who I am today (cringe, but it did). Throughout both our friendship and relationship, I uncovered parts of myself that I didn't even know existed–characteristics that I am proud to possess but also ones I know need to be improved upon. I can confidently say that the years of pain, heartbreak, and many many tears has made me a better and stronger person (colder and emotionless too, but...better). At the end of the day, I now know when to walk away from something that isn't meant to be, and also when I know I deserve better.
