The dating scene for today’s young couples is, well how can I say it, complicated? Today’s young adults are accustomed to being frustrated, mad, and baffled when they, time and time again, have to explain to their parents how to use an IPhone, send an email, use the Wi-Fi or anything dealing with electronics. But when it comes to explaining the dating scene to our parents, let’s face it, even us young adults are still confused as well.

Are we just friends with benefits?

Are we talking?

Are we together?

Are we dating?

Are we exclusive, like the real deal? Can I make it Facebook official, and tell my friends and family?

Well, technically, I am single, but I don’t want to talk to anyone else or hookup with anyone else, but I like the idea of being single, but yet I only want to be with him/her, so I really don’t know what we are.

These are very common thoughts of the everyday confused young adult who has no idea what to label their relationship. The dating scene for young adults in college is as close as dead as you can get it. Young adults, whether they are just going into college, in college or are newly graduated, have killed the dating scene.

We have come accustomed to calling each other BAE, the No. 1 BAE as a label for one another, but really there is only one BAE out there. One you don’t even have to talk to, one that is a cheap date for only $7.99 a month and you even get a free trial before! The best thing is, this BAE is everywhere you go, on your phone, laptop or even tablet.

So you may be asking where can I find this BAE, what does it like, what do I wear. Well don’t worry, BAE doesn’t care what you wear, where you live, how you smell or how much you make. The only thing that matters is Wi-Fi. Yes, Wi-Fi. If you have Wi-Fi, then the number one BAE is yours, but many people know it as NETFLIX.

These are the 10 reasons why Netflix is really BAE.

1. Friends and Family all love BAE.

With Netflix, it allows you to share your account! For $7.99 a month you can have two people use Netflix at the same time. For $11.99 a month you can share it between six people. If you are having trouble finding friends, get an account and I promise you friends will fall from the sky just so they can use your account for free. People will treat you as loyalty, asking for the key to the city.

2. Netflix will NEVER cheat on you.

In today’s society, divorce is a household word now. From cheating, to trust problems, or whatever causes the divorce, you will never have to worry about Netflix cheating on you or leaving. Netflix will never leave. Once you make a password, make sure you remember it. That is your key to a successful relationship with Netflix.

3. Will always know what you want. (Likes and Dislikes)

Once you start to watch your favorite TV shows, movies or documentaries, Netflix will always recommend you titles that you will be interested in. Netflix will never be wrong, it knows your past, your present and knows what you will want in the future. This is why it is always keeping you happy. It doesn’t judge on what you watched in the past, doesn’t care what you are watching In the present, but with it remembering what you have watched and liked, it will always recommend what you should watch in the future.

4. There for you in times of grief.

When your life takes a turn for the worse, Netflix is always there to cheer you up, make you laugh, make you happy and put a smile on your face. Netflix will never judge you for eating a 5-gallon tub of ice-cream, indulging yourself on a whole bag of chips and dip and will never care how much you eat, what you eat or what time you eat.

5. Cheap Date.

No more expensive dinners downtown! No more having to pick up the hefty tab at the bar, night club, restaurant or cab fare. No more expensive birthday, Valentine’s Day, Christmas or anniversary gifts. All Netflix wants is you -- it has no expectations, wants or needs. All you need is a $7.99 monthly fee, a Wi-Fi connection and you can hibernate in your room, man cave or bed as long as you want.

6. Has no standards.

Unlike your past boyfriends/girlfriends, you no longer have to try and look good for them and you never will have to try on a thousand outfits to impress them. Best yet, if you want to have a lazy day, a day where you wear pajamas, not even shower, grab a blanket and a comfy seat, Netflix won’t care. It doesn’t care what race you are, what shape you are in, how much income you have or what you look like. It doesn’t matter and it doesn’t care.

7. Stands by your side, wherever you are.

Netflix goes where you go - it is the perfect long distance relationship. Whether you move or go to college 5,000 miles away or 5 miles away, Netflix is always accessible on your TV, Computer, gaming consol, Tablet and even your mobile device.

8. Surprises you.

Are you lacking the joy or the spark you had in your human relationship? Are you wondering why it isn’t exciting anymore or why he or she doesn’t do anything to surprise you anymore? Don’t worry, Netflix won’t let you down. With its extensive gallery from you to pick from, Netflix continues to add new movies, TV series, TV episodes and documentaries every month to keep you watching, keep the spark going and surprise you month after month for what it has to offer.

9. Never argues with you.

With Netflix you won’t have to worry about a petty, silly argument anymore. You ask and you receive, you want and you get. Netflix gives you what you want, when you want and wherever you want. Netflix will never disagree with what you want to watch, it does as you want.

10. No judgment zone.

Are you afraid to tell your friends what you really like to watch? Are you afraid that some of the shows you like are too manly/girly for you? Are you afraid of people judging you for the weird TV shows, movies or documentaries that you watch? No worry, Netflix is perfect for you. It doesn’t care what you watch - actually, it will recommend titles that appeal to your nature. If you share an account with someone and don’t want them to know what you are watching, you can easily add a profile for them and one for you, so you both have your own privacy.

Netflix may not be a walking, talking, breathing human being, but it is the best BAE anyone can ask for. You don’t have to worry about the approval from friends or family, it won’t break the bank, wont judge you like everyone else does and it knows exactly what you want. If Netflix isn’t the BAE you were looking for, or it lets you down, don’t worry -- the breakup is simple, easy, and pain free. If that isn’t BAE then I don’t know what is.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
