Half of the notes on this post are “Funny lil mustard man turns into a mecha sniper!?” and the other half is

Just spent over an hour on the phone with a nearly incoherent drunk teenager who moved halfway across the US to follow her boyfriend to college only to find out that he’s been cheating on her since the first week of the semester. She found out because he broke up with her so he could be with the other girl. She thought they were going to get married and live happily ever after and now her whole world (justifiably) feels like it’s ending. This is a friendly reminder to think long and hard about following a significant other to college if you don’t actually want to attend that college yourself. I’ve seen this happen way too many times and everyone thinks that their sacrifice will be worth it long term and that they’re going to beat the odds and I literally do not know a single person who that’s actually worked out for. The only high school sweethearts I know who are still together are my parents (they got married at 18. My dad didn’t go to college, but supported my mom through engineering school while pursuing his own career) and a couple who went to different colleges in different states and maintained a long-distance relationship for 3 years before moving to the same city and getting married a year later.
