Anyone can convince themselves that they're in love and it's easy to believe it when someone says it to you. But there is more to an "I love you" than just those three little words. We remind those we love that we love them each day, and they remind us - most of the time without even saying it. Here is a list of 33 ways we say "I love you" even when we don't actually say it.


1. "I saw this and I thought of you"

2. "How was your exam?"

3. "How did you sleep last night?"

4. Picking up their favorite candy when you're at the store.

5. "Your hair looks great like that."

6. Putting two sugars in their coffee when they only ask for one because you know they like it better that way.

7. "I'm proud of you!"

8. Attending an event that means a lot to them (or that they're performing in)

9. "Tell your family I say hello!"

10. "I heard this song earlier today - it made me think of you."

11. Waiting up for them to get home.

12. "Call me when you get home!"

13. A surprise visit just because.

14. Bringing them lunch at work or between classes.

15. "You were right."

16. Holding their hair or rubbing their back when they're sick.

17. "You can pick the movie tonight!"

18. "I really want your opinion on something."

19. Sharing a secret.

20. Leaving a sweet note for them to find during their day.

21. A quick kiss.

22. Making time, even when you have a lot going on.

23. Making their favorite food.

24. Trying something new together!

25. "You should take a break - you work too hard!"

26. "Do you need any help?"

27. Be kind to their friends, or better yet, be friends with them too.

28. Call just to check in and hear their voice.

29. "You can have the last slice."

30. "Don't forget your umbrella/jacket - it's raining/cold outside."

31. Post a photo together!

32. Be their sounding board for rants after tough days.

33. Say "I love you" when they're not expecting it & don't ever think you can say it too much

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.
