"I love you, but I can't."

I am a sensible girl. I am always the one with a "good head on her shoulders." I am rational. I do the right thing. I am smart. I am always on time. I respect authority. I am honest.

I. Don't. Screw. Up.*

I find myself in a very peculiar predicament. No matter what I do, I think it is safe to assume that hearts will get broken- it is only a matter of time. I think I know what I need to do. Although I am not quite sure how, because I think it will hurt him. But, there are some risks I simply cannot afford to take because they will impact more than just myself.

Ultimately, I do know what is right. Not only morally, but for my life, my family, my future. Alas, it does not make this easier. This isn't a movie and I don't think we can have a happy ending. Maybe an illusion of one for a few years, but that will come to its end in time. Everything is too complicated. I just hope to be understood.

Moral of the story: Don't fall for someone that is not from this country. I do not recommend it.

It's just life, right?

*Until this semester, during which I have screwed up often and in several arenas.
