11 Realities of Having a Roommate with a Boyfriend

Having a roommate is one of the best parts of the college experience. Odds are, you have never had to live in such a confined space with another person your age before. This arrangement definitely takes some getting used to, but it can be even more eventful when your roommate has a long-term boyfriend. Take my word for it, you will be seeing a lot of him. And eventually, there are just certain things you learn to be true.

1. You start to accept the fact you now have a third roommate

I mean, he is there all the time anyways. Maybe you should start charging him rent?

2. Being a "third wheel" doesn't phase you

At this point, you three are essentially a full on tricycle.

3. Getting sexiled sucks

You have become very acquainted with the spot beside your door. It's where you sit and pass the time as you wait for your room to become unlocked.

4. You don't care when your roomie's S.O. sees you in shambles

Whether it be fresh out of the shower, or first thing when you wake up, this boy has seen it all. Might as well keep it going, right?

5. You learn that those flowers left at your door are never for you

Yet you still get your hopes up!

6. When you're feeling sad you now have two people to cuddle with

Having a bad day? This will definitely cheer you up.

7. You become just as invested in the relationship as they are

You would have no idea what to do if they broke up. Seriously.

8. There are now two people to counsel you on your love life

Whenever you walk in and need to rant about a guy, you know you can count on getting two unique perspectives.

9. You start to forge a great connection with HIS roommate

He just really gets it.

10. Unwanted things start to accumulate in your room

Hmmm... this pair of boxers sure isn't yours.

11. You realize you need to get a boyfriend. Now.

Nothing will make you realize this like seeing a happy couple together 24/7

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.
