"Crazy cat ladies" are just women who love cats -- a lot. Sometimes they have 14 different cats, and sometimes they only have one, but she doesn't need to own a dozen to be equally kitty-crazed. One puss will do the trick when it comes to stealing all of the attention.

So what can you expect when you get into a loving and devoted relationship with a woman who loves cats?

1. She greets her cat first.

The cat was always there for her in her loneliest hours, he has listened to all of her problems, and he has never judged her when she didn't shower for three days and ate an entire tub of ice cream on her own. The bond is real, and you're going to have to respect that as if you were respecting her spending time with her best friend.

2. She introduces her cat first.

When she meets someone new, you probably aren't the first picture she pulls up on her phone.

3. She calls you kitty.

The amount that she baby talks to her cat really comes to light when she tries to baby talk to you and says the wrong name. It's without a doubt more forgivable than slipping the name of an ex.

4. It's Christmas every week.

For her cat. Every time she goes out she finds a new gift. You're not completely on the back burner, though. Your gifts are just maybe... monthly.

5. She doesn't act like your mom.

She already has to cook and clean for her cat, she didn't sign up for her significant other to be another pet. Expect to make your own meals, probably even her meals, and most definitely pick up your own dirty laundry.

6. You feel like you already have a child.

Remember when you were a kid and you had a reserved spot on your parents' mattress? This is similar to the spot saved on the bed specifically for her other significant other.

7. You start to wonder if she is actually a cat.

You hear random meows throughout the house only to find they're coming from your favorite human. Or is she actually your favorite cat?

8. She expects you to love her cat as much as she does.

You're basically agreeing to a relationship with both her and her cat. This might seem undesirable at first, maybe even unattainable. You might even need to channel your best acting skills to pull it off, but you eventually fall in love with the little furball too.

And even after you come to terms with her cat lady-ness, you could always just dress up like a cat and battle for first place on her list.

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.
