18 Reasons Why Dogs Are Better Than Partners

Sometimes, people suck. But have you ever heard of a dog sucking? Has anyone ever come up to you before and said, "Oh yeah, Spot, that little asshole, he cheated on me again this week." Nope. Dogs are perfect little pieces of heaven, and all they want in life is to be your best friend. I would rather spend the rest of my life surrounded by fluffy little puppies than boys, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. So here are 18 reasons why dogs are 100% better than a significant other.

1. They clean up after your messes.

Ever spill something? Don't worry, the dog will get it!

2. They are always down for some snuggles.

They're your best friend and snuggle partner.

3. They love kisses.

Any time of the day or night, puppies love to give kisses to their favorite humans.

4. Naptime is their favorite time.

Seriously, anytime. They'll never complain that you nap too much, either.

5. They'll never stand you up.

They'll most likely always be looking for you, and if you're not home, they wait at the door for you to come back.

6. They won't complain about you talking to other puppies.

They might get a little jealous, but hey, they'll forget about it in 20 minutes anyway!

7. They don't care what time you come home, as long as you give them a treat.

One little strip of bacon and you're right back at the top of their list of favorite things.

8. They'll never talk shit behind your back.

They can't talk. Ha.

9. Your mother will automatically love them.

You don't have to worry about having to convince them to like each other. Your dog will love anyone you love and your mom is a wonderful woman, I'm sure she'll love the dog, too.

10. You can have as many as you want without being called a slut.

This is not the case with significant others. But with dogs, the worst that will happen is you might have a strange case of disappearing shoes.

11. They'll help you with the shopping without complaining.

12. They love it when you have friends over.

More people to play with!

13. They agree with all of your decisions.

14. They love your cooking.

15. They never judge you for staying in your pajamas all day.

In fact, they probably love it, because it probably means you're staying home to play with them.

16. They'll watch all of your favorite TV shows.

17. They can't lie to you.

Even if a dog does something they shouldn't, like ripping up a cushion or eating the pizza off the counter, they can't lie about it. You always know what they did and when.

18. They love you unconditionally.

No matter what you do, your dog will love you anyway. A dog is only part of your life, but to them, you're their whole life.

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.
