Making Connections 

1. A time when I received mixed messages is when I was "together" with this guy. I really liked him and I thought that he really liked me. We would talk a lot but mostly text. He told me all of the time that he didn't want to be in a relationship but I knew I wanted to be his girlfriend. It would hurt to hear that but I understood when he would explain that there is too much drama within a relationship. However, he still wanted to hang out and see me. I didn't understand why he wanted to continue talking and hanging out when he didn't want a long term relationship. He definitely sent me mixed messages. I have learned much from this experience. I understand now that he didn't actually like me, like the way I liked him. My boyfriend now would do anything to be with me. I can see it by the way that he treats me. I can tell the difference between someone who really wants to be with me and someone who just wants a few things from me before they leave. When someone really wants to be with you, you'll be able to tell and will never have to question them. It's definitely nice and helpful to have learned this.
