Relationships and guys are just stressful in general and I can speak about that first hand. Whether it be those "U up?" texts or just the array of terrible guys that are out there. We all know that guys can cause a tremendous amount of stress in all of our lives. But sometimes you have to realize that that guy is only temporary and there definitely more important things to worry about. Here is a list of some of those reasons.

1. Your physical health

Eat well, be active and just make sure that your body is at its peak. Your main priority over any boy should be your

2. Your mental health


This is also very important because if you aren't mentally healthy and able to take care of yourself then nothing else matters.

3. Friends


Whether it be actual friends


or the tv show, both are very important.

4. School

Let's be honest your education is going to do a lot more for you than a boy ever will so work hard in school and don't ever pick a boy over your education.

5. Having fun

Life is all about having fun, let loose and live your life having a good time and not fretting about a boy.

6. Trying new things

Life, especially when you're young, is all about trying new things so don't let anyone stop you from that. Whether it be dying your hair, getting a tattoo or trying a new type of food, just break free of your shell and let loose.

7. Netflix

Okay, this one is pretty obvious, Netflix basically trumps any boy.

8. Family

I understand that this point is a lot easier than for others but family isn't always who you're born into, you can also pick your family and those are the people you need to worry about.

9. Pets

If you have a boy in your life who tells you that you can't have a pet because they don't like them. Drop that boy, an animal in your life is 1000 times better than any boy.

10. The future

Do you really see that boy in your life in 20 years? Who knows but even if he is, you still have to focus on your future whether he's in it or not.

11. Raising Canes


I understand that I talked about focusing on your health but Canes is something that everyone should prioritize, especially over a boy.

12. Movies


Who doesn't love a good movie? There are so many good movies that have been coming out recently that will definitely take up a good amount of time.

13. Traveling

Traveling is something that everyone needs to do, whether it be just a 2 or 3-hour car ride or going international, it's good to broaden your horizon and encounter new places. But that becomes a lot more difficult when you have a guy who is constantly busy and never has time to travel.

14. Books


Reading is an amazing hobby, I understand that many people do not have the patience for sitting down and reading but you could always listen to an e-book. I will also assume that you'll earn a lot more from that book than you will from that boy.

15. Concerts

I've personally had some of the best nights of my life at concerts and what makes them even more fun is the fact that you don't have to worry about that boy because there are usually numerous boys all around you.

16. Sleep


Sleep is very important and you will get a lot more if you aren't constantly stressing over boys.

17. Twitter

Twitter is just a great place and is so much better than a boy.

18. Getting Tan

I understand that tanning in general whether it be in a tanning bed or out in the sun is bad for your skin. But you don't think about that when you're looking amazingly tan.

19. Smiling

I know it's a very basic thing but turn that frown that frown upside, that boy may have hurt you but you're a lot stronger of a person than to let that affect you.

20. Basically everything

From my experience, a lot of guys are douchebags and there are numerous things that are more important to worry about than a boy.

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.
