Their parents absolutely adore the respective significant other. Will most likely be married and have children within the next two years according to their 5 year plan.

The On Again Off Again

You never really know this couple's relationship status and neither does Facebook. Sometimes being around this couple is uncomfortable because you aren't sure if they are together or not. This couple is definitely meant to be but both are a little afraid of commitment.

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.
