I care about your understanding

Was it Worth it?

(This post is related to my big question. I write a lot outside school and now I'm going to be writing to her at school.)

Have you ever been in love? Most of you guys are probably in high school, and you always hear the same thing. "You are too young to be in love." That might be true but what if they are wrong.

My close friend met a girl his junior year and he believed she was the one. Yes, they fell "in love" then they started to date. After a month, he stopped talking to me. After 6 months, he looked miserable. He wasn't able too even look at me. One day, he texts me saying they broke up. I wasn't sure if I even wanted to talk to him after he left for 9 months for a girl. Then I thought there must have been a reason. Right? Who would leave their closest friend for someone that could possibly not be the one? Was it love? 

He started telling me about how he was treated, I won't go into details but it was bad enough to one point, I felt as if I needed to say something to her.

1 out of 7 men are a victim of
 emotional abuse

Women are victims, but so are men. He felt as if he had to change himself for her to make her stay and love him. It angers me to bring this up again and think about it. She had him stop talking to his best friend of a couple years and she didn't allow him to even listen to music. There are other things but like I said I am not going into too many details.

My point that I am trying to get across is, Love is powerful but are you strong enough to notice if its love or abuse? You don't have to change yourself for anyone. It's your life and you decide what is best for you. It all starts with a choice and it also ends with one decision.
