My new chapter: Lesson #1

I've realized that I'm starting a new chapter in life. 

Living in New York, depending on myself..... Yikes!!

To be honest I have mixed emotions about everything that's changing. 

I'm so use to living how I was, living free depending on someone else (mom/boyfriend) but now, it's all changing. 

I do realize life doesn't come slowly or with instructions..... And sometimes the best way to experience new things is to just do it! 

Throughout my journey I want to remember all the things life has taught me. I'll call these My NY Lessons. (Only because I'm currently in New York, not because they have anything to do with New York specifically) Recently I learned lesson number 1.

Lesson #1: Everyone lies Stupid lies

New York is probably the most awesome place to live!! It's always full of life and noise! 

However, last night I learned something new. 

As it is, I'm not really into the "night life". I don't like to drink, dance or meet new people. (At least not that way) But what made me hate it even more was the amount of unloyal people your surrounded by. 

Some you're not aware of, others you are. 

It just makes me more and more skeptical about people. 

I understand the reality that is, EVERYONE LIES but at the same time no one wants to be told a lie. 

Do you realize that most first conversations, consist of lies.

People say whatever to make friends, to meet new people, and to get laid. 

Perhaps the most obvious is to get laid. Lol but do you realize how dumb and sad it is if you can't get someone to like you unless you lie.

Which I'm sure isn't the case but most people are insecure and are scared others won't like them for who they are.... But it's still isn't a reason to lie! 

It's not even just lies,maybe I'm just an untrusting person but I feel like there are more unfaithful people now then there probably ever was.

I guess I'm just trying to say that we need to stop lying so much. Try being a bit more honest. 

We can't expect a person to treat us the way we can't/won't treat them. 

Especially when have a relationship with someone, wether it be friendship, intimate relationship or any kind of relationship, we really need to make sure we can offer them the same things we expect from them. 

Don't expect what you can't give.

Treat others the way you wish to be treated.
