10 Things You Never Thanked Your Guy Best Friend For

Having a guy best friend is definitely one of the better things in life. They're a special kind of friend, not the type you go to Starbucks with (they will, but you'll have to drag them there). Girls who have them know how great they are; they're the best type of friends. Yet, we sometimes forget to thank them for dealing with our craziness. Here are 10 things we’ve never thanked them for.

1. Being completely, utterly, honest with you

Sorry girls, but your girlfriends might say you look great in that dress, but your guy best friend is gonna tell you how you actually look. Good or bad, he’s going to let you know.

2. Basically a personal guy interpreter

Getting mixed signals, weird texts, not even remotely close to understand what this dude is saying? Your guy best friend has it covered. He’ll let you know what this guy actually is saying/wanting. Which is a relief cause we all know we’d never figure it out.

3. A protective brother

Whether you like it or not, he’s going to be protective of you. He’s basically your brother at this point, how can he not be a little suspicious of the new guy you’re talking to? Even the girls who talk about you, he’s going to be protective. Which in the long run, is a great thing.

4. For letting you be one of the guys

Dealing with all the girl crap can get ridiculously tiring. Remember to thank him for letting you roll with the boys.

5. Not causing extra drama in your life

With all the other drama and problems you’re dealing with, he’ll never give you any more. He wouldn’t want to anyway, he’d have to listen to it even more.

6. Dealing with your driving skills

I may have killed us once or twice, and by that I mean maybe a couple of hundred times.

7. Having a good sense of humor

Girls can be so sensitive, it can be hard to joke around. Thanks for letting me throw shots at you, but of course throwing them right back.

8. Being your partner in crime

We all know most of our friends would never be up for the challenge, but your guy best friend always is.

9. For letting you complain

When you just have to talk bad about some dumb girl in you marketing 101 class. I know you don’t want to hear it, but thank you for listening.

10. Helping you out

Whether it's helping you fix your car or your life. Thanks for always helping me out.

11. For just being a damn good friend

Thanks for knowing how crazy I am and still being my friend anyway.

Thanks bro, I appreciate it.

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.
