9 Reasons You Should Quit If He Can't Commit

Nowadays, almost every girl has dates a guy who refuses to give them the "girlfriend" title. Whether he's a commitment-phobe, a f***boy, or just hosts a whole assortment of issues, this type of guy is extremely common out in the dating scene.

One time I dated a guy for eight months before he gave me the title of "girlfriend". Yes, you heard that right. EIGHT months. While every relationship is different and takes a different pace, if your man isn't willing to fully commit to you after a decent amount of time has passed, you should walk away. It can be hard to end things after you've already invested your heart in someone. But if you're looking for a relationship and want to be with someone who will call you their girlfriend, and your current guy isn't willing to give you that title, the longer you stay entangled with him the unhappier you will become.

These are the 9 reasons why you should quit if he can't commit.

1. You deserve better.

Why stay with someone who isn't willing to call you his girlfriend, when you can find someone else that is?

2. The lack of a title makes even the most confident woman feel insecure.

No matter how much you like the guy, you always have that nagging feeling in your gut and you wonder "why am I not good enough?".

3. The paranoia and jealousy he causes in you will make you feel crazy.

Sometimes you even act crazy too.

4. All of the pent-up frustration and resentment you have built up causes you to lash out during your explosive fights.

And, how is this healthy for you?

5. Your friends hate him and are tired of listening to you vent about your problems with him.

Your friends can see what is sometimes hard for you to see- that you deserve better.

6. You're miserable.

Like all the time.

7. The fact that he won't commit to you, shows you he isn't ready to be the man that you need him to be.

And who knows if he will ever be.

8. You don't want to wait around for him anymore, you're over it.

Breaking point reached.

9. You realize you'd be happier alone than to stay in the weird limbo with him.

And one day, you will find that guy who will give you everything you want.

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.
