7 Reasons Why My Boyfriend Is My Best Friend
Kaylee Wescott

There are many reasons that I’m so happy to have my boyfriend also be my best friend. While some people may consider these things “boyfriend traits” or “best friend traits”, I consider them both. Many things are important to being a best friend, some of these things are....

1. Distance doesn’t matter

There is no amount of time without seeing each other that makes anything in our relationship change. Everything is exactly the same the next time we see each other and always includes a big hug.

2. Laughter is necessary

I don’t think there is many days where he doesn’t ensure the fact that I laugh about something. For no particular reason, I am forced to laugh simply because he wants me to be happy.

3. Reminders

I’m always constantly worrying about all the things I have to do. He’s always there to remind me to take things one at a time and to take breaks from everything.

4. Listening to all my rants

If there’s one thing he’s good at its listening to me talk about everything. It doesn’t matter what it is, he’s always there to listen and offer his two sense on anything.

5. Giving me tough love

Everyone needs a friend in their life that will say what you need to hear rather than you want to hear. I don’t always like it but I’m glad he does it.

6. Always being willing to get food with me

Everyone loves food. Having food with people you love is even better though. Especially when you can have any amount of food you want without it mattering.

7. Being reliable

Being friends at various points in time before having a relationship with my boyfriend makes him such a reliable best friend to have. He’s been there in the past so I know he’ll be there in the future.

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.
