5 Love Story Movies Every Romantic Should Watch

If you are a fellow lover of crying your eyes out over fictional characters on a screen, this article is for you! Just like in every good love story, you have to kiss a few frogs before finding the prince. So, why not skip through the frogs, or bad films, to get to the royal princes of love movies? Here are 5 of my favorite love stories that every romantic should watch!

1. "Pride and Prejudice"

True romance at its finest. A love story of two people from different backgrounds manage to overcome their prejudices, social expectations and own stubbornness to allow themselves to fall deeply in love. Oh, and you can't forget Mr. Darcy and those dreamy, tortured eyes!

2. "Leap Year"

This romantic comedy will make you laugh, grin from ear-to-ear and remind you that true love always finds a way! True love knows no boundaries as you will see in this film when Anna crosses the Atlantic Ocean all in the name of love.

3. "The Great Gatsby"

No, I have not seen the latest remake of the beloved story, but the original movie is incredible! Follow Jay and Daisy through the ups and downs of their dramatic roller coaster romance. If you love the glamour and thrill of the 1920s, you will feel like you are right in the heart of Prohibition New York!

4. "A Walk To Remember"

After reading the novel by Nicholas Sparks, I had to watch the film. Grab your tissues and popcorn before watching, though! Love is blind, and the best kind of love is an unlikely love. If you are a fan of dramatic love stories, this one will steal your heart.

5. "Before We Go"

I ended up watching this film for the sole purpose that Chris Evans starred in and directed it. In the end, I fell in love with this nontraditional love story. It is not a traditional American happily-ever-after love story, but the love is there nonetheless. As cliche as this sounds, I felt changed after watching this film, and I believe you will, too.

Possibly the best part about these movies is that they are all available on Netflix! So, grab a box of tissues, your favorite movie snack, sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
