10 Things You Know If You're One of the Guys

There's no stronger bond than the one between a girl and her group of boys.

10 Things You Know If You're One of the Guys

1. Your sleepovers consist of almost entirely if not only boys

But there's just as much gossip!

My mother once told me she had an epiphany half way through one such slumber party and said, "I didn't think anything of it but I realized you were actually having a sleepover with 4 boys and how normal that is."


2.They are referred to as "your boys"

Or "your harem" if you're my mother...

That group of guys will always be associated with you and your love for them. When lost in a crowd, you look for your boys.


3. You're somehow the mom and the little sister of the group

4. People think you're either dating or related

5. You all kind of become one person

You exchange mannerisms and catchphrases until you all communicate with looks and weird meme references. Hilarious to you, but impossible to follow from any other perspective.

6. More than one of their girlfriends has been threatened by you

It makes sense... No girl likes to see their boyfriend be super close with another girl, but you laugh anyways because you know it isn't like that.


7. CUDDLES

8. Going on 'dates' with all of them as a group.

9. Late night therapy sessions

I've gotten many a "Come inside" text from my mother waiting up for me. It's not that I'm not home, I'm just sitting in the driveway talking about dumb boys so that my other dumb boy can give me advice, and vice versa. The emotional support that thrives in opposite sex friendships is something to appreciate.

10. You're the happiest when you're with them

They know all of your quirks, inside jokes, and favorite things and you know theirs. No group of girls could ever make you feel the way your group of goofy boys can. Through and through you stick together and there's no doubt in your mind that they'll be in your life forever.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
