8 Reasons Why Boyfriends Are Like Puppies
Taylor Bryant

Alright ladies, have you ever looked at your man and he's curled up on the couch next to you? Next time you look over at him and he's scratching himself. Then you mention getting a snack from the fridge and he gets all excited about food. Then you mention going out for a drive and he's out the door in a flash. Yea? Have you ever noticed that your dog kinda acts the same way? Yea, me too... Well, here's a heartfelt list of the various ways boyfriends are ever so similar to puppies!

1. If you leave them home alone too long they get anxious and chew on things.

Every time you leave they get sad and wait for you to come back. After a while, they worry you'll never return and chew on carpet, furniture, shoes, toys, and contents of trash cans.

2. They get excited when you mention car rides.

Sometimes fresh air does a body good. Especially after they've waited anxiously for you to come home.

3. They get excited when you mention meal time.

And treats. Any kind of food at any time of day, to be honest.

4. If you throw a ball, they will fetch it.

Boys are all about playing with balls and running around outside on a field.

5. They try to hump your leg.

No further explanation necessary.

6. If you give them too much to drink they might pee on the carpet.

Nobody wants to clean up after that...

7. You can teach them tricks!

I've seen dogs open the fridge and fetch a beer. Certainly, a boyfriend can do the same!

8. They make good exercise partners.

Puppy yoga, anybody?

9. They are always excited to see you when you get home.

And we all know nothing makes us smile more!

10. They are loyal.

They'll stick by your side through thick and thin. They're your best friend. They're your ride or die.

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.
