What I've learned (latest edition)

Relationships, this is a big one though along the way, got my heart broken, but discovered the followings: Creative man are generally only good for one thing. They are always good for that one thing, but don't hold your breathe for more. If it happens, great... question it, but don't push it away, and above all, don't expect it. I am pretty much an expert at this point. I told myself at the beginning of the year I wasn't dating any more creative guys, I am keen on keeping it that way. Creative + guys = Run, and don't look back. No matter how much you care about someone, if they can walk away from you, let them go. Hanging on to someone will only make them run away faster. Let them go. As hard as it is to believe, eventually you will meet someone else whom you like just as much or more, and bonus- they will be trying to be with you too.

Love, isn't this one fun. I have discovered that you can know almost from the start who you will love, or could love eventually. Often this is mistaken for love, but it's not. Love is not definable. It changes in every situation so don't try to define it, and don't look for it. If you love everyone you date after a month, you probably don't really love all of them, either you are horny, or you are confusing your ability to love them one day, with loving them now. Loving someone requires sacrifice, you have to care about them more then you care about yourself without losing yourself. You won't have a healthy relationship until you know who you are, loving yourself, and knowing what you want.

Friendship, as I mentioned before I have really grown in alot of my friendships, my friends are my family, with those that I can go 3 months without talking to them and then just pick up right where we've left off are absolutely the best. They are the ones who stand by you, and the ones you will have the longest relationships of all.

So then, are some more realizations I have come to lately.
