10 Signs You're With Your "Forever" Person
Huffington Post

Sometimes, it's difficult to tell whether the person you're with is the person you're gonna be with forever. Here are ten things that could be huge indicators of whether you're with your "forever" person.

1. You're completely comfortable with them

The first way to know if you're in a solid relationship is the level of comfort between the two of you. If you can't be completely comfortable around them, there's no point in being with them.

2. There's no petty and unnecessary drama

Unhealthy relationships filled with jealousy and stupid drama have been normalized recently, and these relationships are not necessarily ones that are going to last forever. In a completely healthy and strong relationship, you don't tend to worry about silly things or have to deal with either person being possessive or petty.

3. You can easily see your future with them (and talk about it!)

You should be able to envision a future with that person, and you definitely should be able to talk to them about it. If neither of you are willing to talk about your future, you might not be ready to have one.

4. You laugh and have fun together

Not everything about a relationship needs to be serious. If you're able to laugh, have fun, and be goofy together, you're probably in a pretty great relationship.

5. You're able to spend time apart

It's good to want to spend time together, but if you can't stand to be apart from your significant other so each of you can do your own thing, your relationship might be a little unhealthy.

6. You argue at least a little bit

While you shouldn't be fighting every day, disagreements can be healthy and productive. If you don't disagree with your partner about anything, you're probably holding back and not being honest. And when you do disagree, you should be able to openly talk about it.

7. Both of you can openly talk about your feelings

Your relationship should be a judgement-free zone where both of you feel comfortable enough to be honest about your feelings and have open discussions about them.

8. There's no animosity or lingering anger between you

There shouldn't be any anger between the two of you that hasn't already been worked out. If you have lingering anger or animosity, you can't be completely happy and the feelings will probably worsen over time and eventually come out. The results of this probably won't be pretty.

9. You make each other better people

The person you are with your significant other should be your best self. If they bring out the best parts of you, they're probably someone you want to hold on to.

10. You have shared interests

You have to have things to do and things to talk about. Shared interests--even if you develop these interest together--are the key to a strong, happy relationship.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
