Just recently I have watched my good friend Mason get out of a semi-serious relationship… While I thought he would be initially very sad about this, I honestly feel like this was for the better and am he isnot as disappointed as I thought he was going to be. As I have sat here and looked at what his relationship was like and am reviewing the highs and lows of it, I had realized that this relationship has created two separate people from what he used to be and who he is now.
If you were to ask, “how does this relates to this course?” I would tell you, “I honestly am unsure, but this blog feels like a great place to talk about my personal life.” At the beginning of Mason’s relationship, he was very uplifting, eager to see the world and to prosper. These qualities of Mason would soon change as time would go on. As his girlfriend and school would demand more of him he would slowly change from eager to uninterested and careless. The once happy Mason is now wallowing on the couch and barely scraping by.
I am witnessing my friend Mason have a split identity of who he once was and becoming the depressed shell of the friend Mason I used to have. At this point I do not know where to go from here, but I hope that for my sake and above all Mason’s sake he will feel better and start moving on with his life.
