11 Types Of People Who Just Aren't Worth Your Time
Sam Rigby

There is a fine line between the type of people you want to keep in your life and the type you should just forget about. A lot of people don't realize the different toxic relationships they have in their life. It's time to forget about these people and spend your valuable time on more important things.

1. Fake Friends

These are the "friends" that might hang out with you and might be nice to your face, but they really could care less about being around you at all. They don't like you, probably because they're jealous, and they might even cause drama with you and your other friends. Just stop putting yourself in situations when you're around them.

2. Two-Faced People

Anyone that is nice to your face but you find out they're saying stuff behind your back. If they're not doing this to you, but you see them doing it to your other friends, then that is probably a huge sign that they talk bad about you as well. It's their nature.

3. Unsupportive Friends

This is the friend that might roll her eyes and not listen if you talk about your relationship drama, even though you might be wanting her opinion or advice of some sort. Or maybe you're going through a tough time and they know it, and they don't bother to check in on you. They don't care and they definitely don't provide any support. They aren't doing anything good for you, so drop them.

4. Judgmental People

Everyone can be a little judgmental of other people, but stop hanging around with anyone that judges you, whether it's how you look, act, or live. You don't need this kind of negativity in your life.

5. People that come to you every time you need something, but aren't there for you in return

We've all had that one friend who texts you all the time complaining about someone or needing help with something. You're always there for them. But, when the roles are reversed and you need to talk or vent, you hardly get a response.

6. People that use you

I've had my fair share of being stepped all over. I learned to protect myself from this some and stop giving rides to people that say they'll give me gas money "later" when they never do. I'm done giving people a couple dollars here and there because I'll never get it back and it adds up quickly. If someone is only friends with you because they are a moocher, then stop giving them what they want.

7. Significant others that don't fight to keep you around

As a girl, I'm tired of being the one that always has to fight to keep someone I care about in my life, especially when he doesn't fight for me in return. This should be a two-way street, otherwise you will never feel secure in the relationship. If they're not fighting for you, then it shows that they don't really care. Go out and find someone that does care and you'll be much happier.

8. Significant others that flirt with other people

Anyone that says "flirting isn't cheating" is wrong. Anytime your boyfriend or girlfriend is giving that kind of attention to someone else and not you, then they are cheating. They're in a relationship with you, not you and every other girl they find attractive.

9. Significant others that really cheat on you

Besides flirting, if they go out and deliberately cheat and hook up with someone else, or have a "side chick," then drop them like it's hot because you deserve way better than that. They will probably never be good in relationships because once a cheater, always a cheater.

10. People that don't care enough

When something not-so-great happens to you, from as little as getting a bad grade on a test to messing up your car from hitting a deer to someone in your family passing away, and one of your "friends" acts like it's no big deal, then it's time to find new friends. They obviously don't value you as a friend and don't care what happens to you.

11. Anyone that doesn't accept you for who you are

No one has any good reason not to accept someone. They don't have to agree with your lifestyle and choices, but if they are discriminative against you then they are the one's with the real issue. No matter your race, sexual orientation, religion, anything, you're still a valuable person.

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.
