10 Signs You're The Overly Competitive Friend
Playbuzz

Every friend group has one, the girl or guy that gets way into sports, board games, etc. If you don't know who it is, it's probably you. Below are ten signs that you're the overly competitive one in your group of friends.

1. Anything and everything is a competition

Oh you thought we were just walking across the street? Nah bro, this is a race.

2. You find yourself bragging majority of the day about even the smallest of victories

That's cool that you finished Friends in a month, but I finished it in 2 weeks soooo...

3. You've lost friendships over the years from some "not so friendly" competition

You thought this was all fun and games? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

4. "You can't do that" = "Watch me"

You've agreed to doing dares simply because someone said you couldn't do it.

5. Monopoly and Uno have been banned from all the parties you go to

You always get way too into it and if you notice you're starting to lose you have no problem with flipping the board and walking away in anger.

6. People compare you to Monica from Friends

Remember the Thanksgiving episode with the football game? Yea, that's you homegirl.

7. You refuse to "go easy" on children

Life isn't easy sweetie, either learn how to play better or get off the court.

8. 2nd place is the equivalent to last in your mind

You either win or lose, there is no in between.

9. You've definitely cheated once or twice

You gotta do what ya gotta do to win, no matter what.

10. Trash talking is a large part of your vocabulary

"Come on! Are you chicken or something?"

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.
