We are bound to come across one or more of these guys in our dating lifetime. Hey, and if these guys are your cup of tea, then go for it. Snag 'em up quick so that the rest of us don't have to deal with it.

1. The Narcissist

He is self-absorbed. He does not give a crap about how his actions may make you feel. He also only wants to talk about himself, his hobbies, his day, and his goals. You'll find yourself being interrupted by them often. Once you finally get a moment to talk about your activities, he finds a way to turn it back to him by telling you how he could have done/ handled that better. He makes you feel small, insecure, and just not good enough. Run.

2. The Bad Boy

Ahhh, the infamous one. The one that you don't take home to mother, and if you do, you'll be hearing about it for the rest of your life. Long haired, tatted, and he might even stunt a hot rod. His idea of fun includes tagging, stealing, and probably the use of an illegal drug. He has definitely spent a night or two in custody. Sure, he seems like fun at first sight. You feel like a sweet Sandra Dee whose wild side has just emerged from hibernation. It's exciting! Calm down, put an actual shirt on, and put down the spray paint.

3. The One With Commitment Issue

This is the guy that you dated for three years already. Many times he has knelt down to tie his shoe or pick up a penny on heads. While you're squealing and jumping, he's looking confused just fixing his sock. On a more serious note, the only real reason to date is to find your forever S.O. Therefore if your guy is deep into this relationship but downright refuses to talk about a future with you, then you two need to have words. You need to DTR ASAP. He needs to stop wasting your time and let you know where you stand. Maybe he's not a person who ever wants to be married but still plans to stick with you; you still need to know this so your aren't sitting there anticipating a proposal.


4. The Football Player

He is still living off of his glory days from high school. He wore his letterman jacket to the five-year reunion, and there is a weekly reminder of his game-changing pic six. It's probably the last noteworthy accomplishment that he has. Because he was top of the food chain in high school, he has some entitlement issues. His teachers let him get off without doing assignments simply because he had to stay focused on the game. Here in the real world we've taken away his silver spoon and replaced it with a rusty tool.

Now, get to work and earn something.

5. The One With No Passion

Where's he at on weekdays? Home. Where's he at on weekends? Home. Who does his laundry? Mom. What is he doing with his life? Nothing. This is the guy who is working at that minimum wage job, while not trying to better himself. Fine, if his life dream is to flip burgers the rest of his life, then good for him, but the rest of us have bigger things to accomplish here. Everyone should have something that they're passionate about. Does he like music? Does he like sports? Does he draw? Does he want to save the planet? Does he want to be a millionaire? Does he want to be a Mr. Mom? He needs to have a passion for something, anything.

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.
