Guys, please know girls admire different. We admire men, not boys. Don’t let society decide who you will grow to be and the character of yourself. Be the man who you want your future son to grow up to be.

Look to the Lord, daily and seek Him first. For He is far greater than anything on this earth. So don’t let temptation get in your way of being a godly man, who loves God. For one day, He will provide you with a wonderful girl who loves the Lord just as much. And it will be worth that wait.

1. Cheaters never win. Ever.

This should be common knowledge. Just don’t do it. Girls will always find out in the end…it’s not worth it. Believe me!

2. Nice guys actually don’t finish last.

Contrary to what society tells us, Nice guys don’t finish last. Yeah a girl may be attracted to the “bad boy” for a bit, but in the end a girl is after that good, solid guy who is genuine and kind. That bad boy she went for way back when is not the kind of guy she wants to end up settling down with.

3. Please don’t ever put me first.

Don’t try to make me your everything. I will let you down and will fail time after time. Instead please put God before me ALWAYS. For he won’t fail you. And know I don’t want to ever make you my everything, either. Please pursue Him first and foremost and challenge me to always do the same.

4. Every girl is different. So don’t treat us like we are all the same.

I am not your ex and never will be. Don’t treat me like her. ‘nough said.

5. Be the guy you would want your sister to date.

Respect me the way you would want a guy to respect your sister. I am not an object so please don’t treat me like it. You wouldn’t want your sister to be treat that way, would you?

6. If we have siblings, having their approval is a MUST!!!

If they don’t approve, it’s a no go! Our sibling’s approval will always be something we value.

7. We care less about presents and more about quality time.

It is quite simple. Instead of wasting your money on presents and random gifts for us. Just plan a fun date and spend quality time with me…away from distractions. Time is the best present you can give a girl sometimes. Don’t forget this!

8. We aren't for this whole "playing games" thing.

Please don’t waste your time on me if you are just out to play games. I am not about that….most girls aren’t.

9. It's not always easy to be the good girl.

When hooking up is the norm and purity isn’t seen to be so “pure” anymore, it can be hard to not conform to the thoughts that society is throwing at us. But the girl who is waiting is also herself, worth the wait. Know that she won’t settle and is trying her best daily to fight temptation, despite how hard it can be.

10. Pursue God and challenge me to always do the same.

Please don’t try to get between my relationship with God. I promise I will try to never do the same. Instead grow with me and our faiths, as we push ourselves more towards the Lord TOGETHER.

Girls, don’t settle for the boys. Wait for the man. For God created you beautiful in His sight, and you deserve a man who sees that. Don’t let the boys determine your worth while you wait for the man, either. You are worth pursing, but by a godly man who is seeking God first.

For one day, when that time comes, God will let that man in your life. And when He does, it will be worth all the time you waited. I am quite certain of that. So in the meantime, keep chasing after God and seeking Him, daily.

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.
