20 Reasons Why Losing Him Is Not A Loss
Alexis Ren

You might think losing him is the end of the world. We've all been there, we've all lost people we never expected to lose. It is going to hurt like hell and you are going to feel like you will never be okay again. But, one day you are going to wake up next to the love of your life and you will not even remember the pain you are feeling today. You will find happiness in yourself, in the world, and eventually another boy. Here are 20 reasons why losing him is not a loss.

1. Now you are free to find someone better.

2. All that you lost was the idea of a future you might have had.

3. Nobody owns you anymore.

4. The worst has already happened, you lost him. You loved someone who didn't love you back. Dust yourself off, stand up and get back out there. Life isn't over.

5. He isn't the end. There are so many more people in this world. People who actually deserve you.

6. He won't matter once you meet the right person. In fact, you probably won't even be able to remember his name.

7. Why would you want to keep fighting for someone who never fought for you? Someone who doesn't make you feel like you are the only person in the world isn't worth crying over.

8. Deleting his number will be like a huge weight off your chest. You will no longer have the capability of making a fool out of yourself when you're drunk on a Wednesday night thinking about how much you miss him.

9. "If you can love the wrong person that much, imagine how much you can love the right one."

10. No one else's opinion matters anymore, besides your own.

11. Every goodbye leads to a new hello.

12. You don't have to constantly check in with someone whenever you go somewhere. You can get in the car and drive for hours without having to tell anybody.

13. There is no one holding you back from pursuing your dreams. Become the person you've always wanted to be.

14. Think of this as a second chance in disguise. Now you have a better understanding of what not to do in your next relationship.

15. You have realized your self-worth. There's no more wasting your time with douchebags who aren't worth it. You are so much better than people who do not prioritize you. You are worthy of so much more.

16. You now have more time to spend with your friends and family. No boy should ever be more important than them.

17. Just think, he has it much worse -- he lost you.

18. Leaving might seem hard but once you leave, it is the easiest thing in the world.

19. Think about this hard: Do you really want to keep around someone who doesn't want to stay?

20. You might have lost him, but you still have yourself. And that's something.

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.
