When you read the headline, you probably had a name instantly pop in your head. We all understand the importance of a best guy friend. The one guy who will always be there for us no matter what. We love this guy in a completely different way than we will ever love another man. Our best guy friend deserves endless thanks. Here are a few things he deserves recognition and "thank you's" for.

1. Letting me be a bro.

Sometimes, even as girls, we just need to chill on a couch and play video games or eat junk food while watching sports.

2. Being my "significant other" when a creeper wont leave me alone.

When that one guy just wont leave us alone, he just swoops in and puts his arm around us and plays the boyfriend role.

3. Not hitting on me.

Thank you for things like sharing your bed with me when I need a place to crash and not once hitting on me while I am there.

4. Giving me a guy's point of view.

As a girl, its hard to know what a guy is thinking, thank you for being my guide book. From text messages that don't make sense to that thing "he" did when "he" saw mev last time.

5. Being brutally honest with me all the time.

Thank you for telling me that those pants don't look right on me or that I am being a little too clingy. I know you mean it out of the goodness of your heart and it means a lot.

6. Holding my broken heart or mind together.

I can't count how many times I have cried in your arms and got snot all over your shirt and you never mind. Your hugs are the best medicine for mental breakdowns and broken hearts.

7. Not being grossed out by my unladylike tendencies.

Yes, I bump and do everything else a guy does. You totally accept that and don't give me a hard time about it.

8. Telling me when a guy is a complete waste of time.

You, of all my friends, know the most certain when a guy is terrible news. When I get myself into something with a total tool, you try to set me straight real fast.

9. Not bringing drama into my life.

You listen to me talk about all my drama that I am dealing with in life but never do you add to it. You are my drama free zone when I need relief.

10. Being just the right amount of protective.


You ride that line right between big brother and just a friend. You never tell me what to do but you sure don't let people walk all over me. When I need a stern hand to hold me back, you're there.

11. Wingmanning it up.

When either of us cannot muster up the courage to hit on that person we have been crushing on for the longest time, we have each others back. You are my favorite person to play Have You Met Ted with.

12. Just for being yourself.

You, sir, are one of a kind and I will never be able to thank you enough for it. No one gets me quite like you and vice versa. We are our complete selves around each other and it is such a blessing. You are my best guy friend and I love you.

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.
