1. He is your pseudo-boyfriend.

With a guy best friend, you have all the benefits of a boyfriend without any of the headache. Movie date? He's on it! Dinner date? He can take you! You never have to feel like you have to do anything or go anywhere alone.

2. He is always there when you need him.

There is never a time when you feel like no one has your back because you're guy best friend is always there. He is a great listener and whatever pep talk he gives you came straight from the heart! He will do whatever it takes to make sure you're happy!

3. He has cute friends.

You guys may act like boyfriend and girlfriend sometimes but let's face it you are still S I N G L E! Being best friends mean you are going to be around his other friends and who doesn't want to see cute eye candy from time to time?

4. His parents love you to pieces.

Every other girl he brings home is never going to compare to how they feel about you. They will constantly compare her to you and while this may be a bad thing on her end you will always hold a special place in their hearts.

5. You can be yourself around him.

Being around boys sometimes requires you to remember to "act like a lady". You will never have to worry about how you act in front of him. He has seen you at your absolute worse (especially while you were contouring your face) and he honestly doesn't care.

6. You get the male perspective on things.

He may not want to hear about the guy that just recently broke your heart but he will tell you what he might have been thinking. You have a direct link to the male brain at all times which can seem a little scary but it will help you understand why they do the things they do!

7. An argument will not end your friendship.

Let's face it, when girls get mad they get nasty! One argument with a girl may end your friendship forever. He is not going to let that happen, he values your relationship and will not let something trivial end it. Granted you will get into disagreements but you will never have to worry if that argument will be your last!

8. He loves you, flaws and all.

We spend our entire lives trying to impress people. Covering up our flaws can be tiring but he will love you no matter what. He doesn't care if you think one eyebrow is bigger than the other or if you hate the way you talk because people think you sound five years old. He loves you despite what you think about yourself and works hard to prove you that you are amazing. Nothing can get better than that!



Dedicated to my best friend!

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.
