14 Signs You Might Be An Ambivert
AZ Files

If you have qualities that are classified as both introverted and extroverted, you may be an ambivert! You're outgoing and like to spend time with people. But, sometimes, you'd rather be alone.

1. Sometimes you stay in instead of going to the bar or a party with friends.

Sometimes you would rather watch a movie at home with some close friends, or just curl up on your couch by yourself with a good book, than go out and socialize. Plus, at home, you can wear sweatpants... or no pants at all. It's a win-win.

2. You enjoy your own company.

Part of growing up means figuring out how to be happy by yourself and with yourself. You've gained enough independence and accepted yourself that you enjoy your own company. There's no shame in going out to eat at a restaurant by yourself, or spending a relaxing day home alone. These experiences will help you figure out who you are.

3. When you see someone from high school out in public, you avoid eye contact and immediately go the other way.

And hope they didn't see you.

5. You need your morning coffee and some breakfast before having conversation.

No food makes you "hangry."

6. Socializing for a whole day drains you physically and emotionally.

After a long day of dealing with people, you just need some time alone to get ready to do it all over again tomorrow!

7. You give the death glare to anyone who dares to speak to you when you're in your zen mode.

Can't you see I'm busy relaxing?

8. When you do choose to socialize, you have a blast.

Sometimes you're even the life of the party.

9. You suck at texting back.

Sometimes you just need a break from technology and the outside world. You may even wonder why you were born in this era, because you'd rather go back to when cell phones didn't exist, so the only way to talk to people was to physically be with them.

10. You hate talking on the phone.

Why can't you just text me? I probably won't answer, but...

11. You have a small number of lifelong friends.

Quality over quantity!

12. You have a big heart, and care a lot for people.

13. You may suffer from social anxiety.

14. You are very wise and have lots of great advice!

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.
