12 Reasons Why Fitz Is The Worst Part Of Scandal

*Spoiler Alert*

Scandal is without a doubt an incredible show. It's compelling, mentally stimulating, and captivates its audience so that they're hanging on every word. The characters are real people. They're not impeccable, but they are redeemable. Olivia is everyone's dream. Cyrus is admirable because of his drive and patriotism. Fitz is the worst.

1. He shouldn't even be President.


The election was rigged. Even Olivia, who sees the best in Fitz, didn't think he could honestly win. He's one of the most powerful men on the planet, and he got there illegally.

2. He's awful to Mellie.

Mellie is not a nice person. We can all agree on that. But she is still the mother of his children, and she deserves his respect. He should at least be civil to her.

3. He can't make a decision between Mellie and Olivia.

Instead, he wavers between the two, but not even in a redeemable way, like for morality or love. He wavers because he's worried about his political career.

4. He seduces Olivia during the campaign despite her trying to be professional.

This is kinda creepy. She's his employee and simply being professional. She's able to keep her feelings under wraps, but he seduces her anyway.

5. When he gets drunk, he attacks Olivia.

NEVER OKAY.

6. He pushes Olivia even when she's not comfortable.

They are having an affair, which is their prerogative, but no means no. There are multiple times where Olivia doesn't want to do something, and Fitz pushes her until she agrees with him.

7. He uses his love for Olivia against her.

Pretty much every time Liv and Fitz fight he just says "I love you" (or some form of it) and kisses her, then acts like everything is ok. That's cute if it's a minor argument and you only do it every once in a while. When you're arguing because she doesn't want to be your mistress anymore, not okay.

8. He expects Olivia to wait around for him.

Dude's delusional. He's the freaking President of the United States of America. He can't marry Liv and he knows it, but he wants her to wait anyway.

9. He's used to getting his way.

He's a spoiled little rich boy who just does whatever he wants. Yes, he's the President. No, that doesn't mean he can always have his way.

10. When he doesn't get his way, he throws a temper tantrum.

He's the President for goodness sakes. NOT a five year old who broke his favorite toy. The temper tantrums aren't cute.

11. He had the nerve to judge everyone else for their wrongdoings even though he murdered Verna.

Yes, Hollis and Cyrus have ordered people to be killed. But he literally murdered her with his own two hands. And then got all judge-y about everyone else rigging the election! Newsflash Fitz: murder and dishonesty are NOT on the same level.

12. He never listens to Cyrus even though that's why he hired him.

Cyrus is really smart politically, but Fitz ignores his judgments anyway. Because he's Fitz.

13. His stupid "one minute". UGH.

One minute is not even close to long enough to give to the "love of your life." These minutes are a perfect example of everything that's wrong with him. He expects everyone to revolve their lives around him, but he can't even give more than one minute of normalcy to Olivia? Seriously dude?

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.
