Paint and Camo

I am an artist. An animal lover. A growing psychologist. A wannabe gardener. This blog is more of a journal for me to express my thoughts and feelings, which have been a rollercoaster as of late. My fiance recently joined the military, and that will probably spur most of the things I post. Also, this is a side blog! My main is girlthats20below

If I could offer a young person advice about anything it would be do NOT make life decisions based on your boyfriend or girlfriend. Girls especially. Do NOT stay close to home for him, do not skip opportunities to travel or study abroad, do not pick a safe college to be with him. Expand your horizons. Broaden your own life. He is not the world.

I want everyone who disagrees with this post to come back to me in a couple years and tell me how that shit worked out.

Daily reminder: If they wanna talk to you, they will. If they wanna be with you, they will. If they wanna make things work, they will. Don’t let things be one sided. It’s not healthy, and it’s not fair to you.

You can begin again. You are not behind. You are exactly where you need to be to get to where you want to go.

All of this would be so much easier if I didn’t love you so much.

Looks like we're staring down an impending break up, everybody. I'm not sure I can handle 20 years of active duty and he refuses to do anything less than that. Im not sure how to live life without him though.

Will I always be terrified of people leaving me?

“Once you’re in a relationship you think it’s going to last forever. But in reality, it only lasts as long as you’re working for it. If one of the person stops working, it falls apart.”
