They've never done their own laundry.

So you met a boy and you like him. Congrats.

Many girls, at some point in a relationship, quickly discover they are not the only woman in their man's life. Afterall, the best lions have a lionness.

Unfortunately for you ladies, some of these guys never outgrow this bond and depend on their moms way too much – even into their college years. In the most severe cases, they will lean on their mother well into their 20s.

Here are 10 signs you're dating a momma's boy:

1. He doesn't do laundry. And he doesn't know how.

And why would he? His mom has been doing it for him his whole life. And still does. That's why he loves her so much.

2. He is not much of a cook.

Again, his mom cooked 90 percent of his meals through high school, still cooks for him when he's home from college, and even sends him back with plenty of food to get by.

3. He calls and texts Mom every day.

You: “Why are you laughing so hard? Who are you texting, your boys?"

Him: “It's my mom!"

4. He is a ham.

He loves to be the center of attention. Why wouldn't he be? Mom has been telling him he's special and the best thing on earth for at least two decades.

5. He is a gentleman.

It's not all bad. You're dating a guy who knows how to treat women because the most important person his whole life is, in fact, a woman.

6. He loves to cuddle.

Classic momma's boy move.

7. He and his Mom have inside jokes.

Maybe one day you will too. But they've been working on material for years.

8. They are not very handy.

Again, they're just used to having everyone do everything for them – not just mom. But Mom started this trend for sure.

9. He loves to shop and he is a great gift-giver.

His mom used to take him on all her shopping trips, so naturally, he likes to shop. And he's weirdly good at it.

10. He is sensitive. And you'll fall for him because of it.

You are not his first serious girlfriend. And he's good at the emotion game. Maybe a little too good. Momma's boys are notorious for being “relationship people."

Good luck with that.

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.
