All I want is to be me. I want to be seen for who I am and my own accomplishments. I want to experience life on my terms. That’s not too much to ask, is it?

I want to run and hide, to pretend I never met her. But my friend Tyler needs me. We’ve been there for each other since the first day of freshman year. His girlfriend moved out without saying a word, I know he’s hurting. Once again I set my own needs to the side so I can support Tyler during his own time of heartbreak.

A funny thing happened. The more we hung out, the more he started seeming like his old self. I wasn’t just helping him move past this break up, I was also falling for him at the same time and starting to forget about my own pain.

Could he be the one? I’m starting to feel like I know who I am. Never in a million years would I think that would be possible. Yet, here I am. I’ve even worked up the courage to tell him how I feel, only for his ex to come back to town. I hate that for some people life looks so easy. I wish I knew their secret.
