10 Days of Bullshit Challenge--Day 10

Day 10- Write a letter to you at 16 years old. 



Tory,
I know life seems really crazy to you right now, but don't stress. Things will turn out. Try not to stress too much about the kind of mom you are going to be, (currently you are 3 months pregnant). AD will be one of the best things that happens to you whether you feel like it now or not. 
You will face quite a few difficulties with AD's father, stick it out. In about a year you will get pregnant with the most beautiful little girl. AN will make your life complete.
DO NOT get married. It will be one of the biggest mistakes of your life. The marriage fails miserably after a year's time and it puts you through complete bullshit that is not necessary.
Finish high school. I know getting your GED seems easier now, but you will lose contact with quite a few of your friend after dropping out. 
Don't trust so easily. Learn that new people can sometimes be the enemy. Your new best friend SHOULD NOT be trusted. In the end her friendship will not be worth it. She eventually sleeps with your husband.
I know right now you are back and forth between AD's father and M. Don't stress about the decision you are making right now. Eventually you find your way back to M and you have an amazing life together the second time around. You will get pregnant and have a baby with him:) 
Spend more time with dad. You will lose him a couple of years from now. 
Don't worry about not having your "teenage years" to party. Enjoy spending the weekends at home with the little one. He will grow up before you know it. Several years from now you will have every other weekend to spend out with friends, but you will find out that you spend the first six months at home crying because you wish the kids were here.
Keep your head up. You are a beautiful and strong woman and will turn out to be just that. You will be the best mother you know how to be and life will not be as stressful and depressing as it seems to be now. 
You will succeed! Believe in yourself.
Sincerely,
Tory (5 years from now)
