Campus relationships are pointless, overrated and a waste of time

So you first met them at the school's graduation square pavilion after class. They looked gorgeous in the matching black attires they were spotting and you thought to yourself that they actually make an amazing pair. You kind of found it hard to get your eyes off them and whenever your eyes met, you'd successfully pretend to be looking at the old chair sitting next to them. You weren't sure if complimenting them would be the right move and so you let them go hoping against hope to see them again so you could tell them just how good a couple they looked.

It's barely a month now since they started dating and everything is falling apart. You don't understand what happened to their relationship. He's lost. She's lost.
