From a female perspective, it's always nice to read the articles that are labeled "10 reasons to love your boyfriend" and "27 ways to appreciate your boyfriend." But I thought it was time for the girlfriends to get a shout-out, because we do a lot of work, too! So, this is for all you girls out there.

Boys, here's 22 things to thank your girlfriend for.

1. We deal with your sports craziness and sit through every.single.game; without any complaints, I might add.


2. For understanding your hunger and cooking/bringing you food.

3. For picking up the bar tab/paying for dinner sometimes.

4. For listening to you complain/rant/yell about anything from sports, work, to that test you just bombed.

5. Going to sporting events with you, even if it's disgustingly cold outside.

6. Rubbing your back or feet after a long day of work.

7. Watching (and enjoying) action movies with you.

8. For understanding when you don't look your best, because we don't always look perfect either.


9. For cuddling with you all night.

10. Watching the weirdest shows on TV with you.

11. For cooking you dinner all the time because you "don't know how."

12. When we speed up getting ready so you don't have to wait that long.

13. When we eat just as much, if not more, than you.

14. We get along with your friends so you don't have to pick and choose.

15. For making you realize how your life would be different without us.

16. For planning a future with you, so you don't have to worry about it.

17. For showering you with pictures of adorable baby animals.


18. We force you to go on social media and engage with the world.

19. We make it easy for your family to love us.

20. We're understanding. We never get mad when plans fall through.

21. We know how to love unconditionally, and especially know how to love you.

22. We'll be your best friend, crying shoulder, love of your life, and love you more than anyone else.

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.
