Being alone and being lonely are two very different things. Any introverted person can tell you that. Being an introvert in a world that requires you to be an extrovert in order to be successful can be stressful above anything else. As an introvert, it is difficult when you surround yourself with extroverts who just don’t get it. So, here are the top 5 things that all introverts hate more than anything else.

1. Being in large groups of people when they don't have the energy to be around people:

2. When people ask "why are you so sad/angry?!" when really you just want to be alone:

3. There is always that one person that you just wanna punch because they don't get it and they don't even make an attempt to try and understand:

4. When someone tells you that you need to "lighten up" and "have fun":

5. When you FINALLY get to go home and be alone in bed:

Overall, being an introvert isn't a bad thing. It also doesn't necessarily mean that you hate being around people in general. Being an introvert means that sometimes you just need a little bit more alone time than some people. Still, this is something that some people just do not understand. So, if you are a little bit more on the introverted side, then don't worry, you aren't alone! If you know people who tend to be a bit more on the introverted side, then I hope that this little article helped you understand what it is like for an introvert a bit more.

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.
