8 Things Girls Want In A Relationship

I hear men say it all the time: girls are so confusing. The truth is, we really aren't confusing, or crazy and we don't actually expect too much. We have standards, and that is a good thing. However, having standards doesn't mean you need to be superman all the time. To us, it really is the simple things that count. Though we love when you go above and beyond for us, we love it more when you're consistent with the simple things like honesty, and loyalty. We don't need you to do to much, we just need you to do these 8 things.

1. A guy who makes time for us

We don't expect to see you every day, and we respect that sometimes you need your guy time. However, making time for us is crucial. We want to know that you love to be around us just as we love to be around you. It can be something as simple as watching a movie, or going for a joy ride. Anytime we get to spend together is cherished.

2. A guy who shows us off

A guy who is proud to be with his girlfriend is such a turn on, and a guy who plays it off like she's just a "side-piece" to his friends is a total turn off. Don't be one way with us, and another way with your friends. We want you to be as proud as we are to be with you. Don't be scared to show us off- we want you to do it. Show your friends that you're lucky to have us, because you are.

3. A guy who looks at us like this


This one speaks for itself.

4. A guy who has ambitions

A guy who isn't scared to set goals for himself is very attractive. We want a guy who wants to succeed in life, not a guy who only cares about drinking on the weekends. Be ambitious and tell us what you want in life. A guy who knows what he wants is such a turn on.

5. A guy who is LOYAL

Just like you don't want us answering guys who slide into our DM's, we don't want you answering those girls who Snapchat you on the weekends. We understand that sometimes there are temptations, but all we ask is that you respect us enough to never act on them when we're together. Ask any girl who has ever been cheated on how important loyalty is- please never put a girl through what cheating puts us through.

6. A guy who is honest

Honesty is the best policy. Girls are amazing at finding things out, and usually, we know you're lying before you even speak. If we ask you something, be honest about it. We are much more sympathetic when you come right out and tell us rather than having us find out from someone else.

7. A guy who isn't scared of his feelings

Nothing is more aggravating than being the only one to express feelings in a relationship. A guy who holds things back is not attractive. We want to know how you feel, no matter how intense it is. Don't be the tough guy, be the guy that yells "I love (insert name)" off the top of a building.

8. A guy who cares

If we are upset, we want you to care. If we've had a bad day, we want you to care. If we are just in a bad mood because it's that time of the month, we still want you to care. Nothings hurts more than when a guy says he doesn't care- it honestly makes us feel like we aren't good enough. Care about us just as much as we care about you, and I promise we'll make you happier than you've ever been.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
