13 Things Girls Say But Don't Actually Mean

Girls are confusing and difficult. Everyone knows it, even the girls who are extra hard to deal with. We say things we don't mean, and we think that guys will understand, but they don't. Only girls know how girls think, guys will never understand.

Here are some of the classic phrases girls say and the actual translations of them:

1. Fine

Discussion is over, stop talking

2. Do what you want, idc.


SHE CARES!!! She's testing you to see your judgment. Don't mess this up.

3. I'm almost ready

She probably isn't ready, and won't be until she is. Don't rush her or she'll just get aggravated.

4. We'll talk about this later

She doesn't want you to speak to her at the moment. She needs space to think about what just happened and how much of an idiot you are.

5. Nothing

She doesn't want to tell you what's making her upset, because it's probably everything and too hard to explain.

6. What did you just say?

You just said something really messed up, and she is giving you one last chance to change your phrase. Don't be stupid.

7. I'm not mad

She's actually furious or disappointed in you.

8. Do you think she's pretty?

Don't answer that question!!! This is your chance to tell her she's the most beautiful girl you've ever seen and that no one can compare to her.

9. I forgive you.

She may forgive you and move on from it. But just know she'll use this against you for the rest of your life.

10. I'm fine

She's not fine, and she won't be fine until you comfort her and make her feel safe. She wants to talk about it but doesn't want to bother you. Let her know you're there for her and always will be there to talk.

11. No

NO MEANS NO!! NO IF, ANDS OR BUTS ABOUT IT! No isn't a maybe, it's a NO!

12. Nothing is wrong, I'm just tired

She's in a bad mood, back away.

13. I don't know

She doesn't want to tell you, so just let it be.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
