15 Attractive Qualities That Have Nothing To Do With Appearance
Jacob Browning Photography

In today's society, it's so easy to get wrapped up in looks.

Whether it's having the sharpest contour, the biggest muscles, or the best brows, men and women are constantly being pressured into following whatever beauty trend is hot at the moment. But what really makes someone attractive? As cliche as it sounds, you should never judge a book by its cover. Underneath an underwhelming outer appearance could lie some of the most attract qualities a person can possess.

For instance:

1. Honesty

If I can't trust you I can't date you.

2. A Sense of Humor

You could be the most beautiful person in the world, but laughter will always be the most beautiful activity in the world.

3. Humbleness

Being accomplished and successful is hot... And being modest about it is even hotter.

4. Intelligence

Please, tell me more about how you've "Never read a book", I'm fascinated.

5. Love for their family and friends

Honestly, seeing you being nice to your mother or playing with your niece is a lot more impressive than your bench press.

6. Passion

Whatever makes you want to get out of bed in the morning, that's attractive.

7. Kindness

This one speaks for itself... Why would you want to be around a jerk?

8. Sensitivity

If I'm crying I need you to whip out a shoulder.

9. Charm and Wit

Tell me a joke I am begging you.

10. Adventurous

Let's go on a trip. Or on a hike, Or literally just a walk around the park.

11. Optimism

Nobody likes a negative nelly.

12. Politeness

Because let's face it, the words please and thank you don't get nearly enough credit.

13. Responsibility

If you're not already an adult you're going to be one someday, try acting like one.

14. Energetic

No, I don't want to lay around and admire how attractive you are all day.

15. Just being a decent human being

There's plenty of jerks in the world. Some of these jerks can be pretty hot on the outside, but the inside absolutely ruins it. Looks will come and go, but being kind and genuine never truly goes out of style.

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.
