15 Things You Should Remind Your Significant Other of This Holiday Season
Jennifer Fineman and Jordan Siegel

One of the best ways to celebrate the holiday season is with you significant other. With all the holiday lights going up, everyone deciding on how they will spend the remainder of their last paycheck, there isn't a better person to spend the next week. You now have someone to walk around the streets singing Christmas Carols with, to help hang ornaments on the Christmas tree with, spin the dreidel with and cuddle up with near the fireplace. With all these wonderful holiday ideas in mind, here are 15 things you should remind your significant other of this holiday season.

1. Remind this person that you love them.

Because admit it. You do.

2. Remind this person of what made you fall in love with this person to begin with.

There must be a million reasons why you fell in love with this person. So if you can't remember the exact instance, pick one.

3. Remind this person of your first date.

Can you recall our first coffee date together?

4. Remind this person of your first kiss together.

You can't forget this.

5. Remind this person of one of the great things you have seen together.

Recall a moment that you shared together that was impactful.

6. Remind this person on your first trip you took together.

Perhaps your first trip together was a family vacation. Regardless of what it was, recall it and reflect with each other.

7. Remind this person of a favorite meal the two of you shared.

Maybe it was that macaroni and cheese at home.

8. Remind this person of something you hope to see in that relationship in the future.

Because you want to see that relationship grow.

9. Remind this person of a laugh the two of you shared.

Perhaps it was the time you mispronounced a simple word and it was so funny, the two of you couldn't stop laughing.

10. Remind this person of something embarrassing you did once.

Hopefully they will remember something silly they did as well.

11. Remind this person that you want to share the holidays with them.

12. Remind this person to help you clean up after the holiday party the two of you are hosting.

13. Remind this person that you care for that.

14. Remind this person that you are in this relationship for the long run.

You aren't going anywhere.

15. Remind this person of all the positive qualities you love about them.

Then, reflect on what you hope to see in the following years with him.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
