9 Signs You're Dating A Lame-O

When you're with someone, you need to accept all parts of them -- even the lame ones.

Relationships are pretty funny with the way they work out. No matter how much time goes by, you’ll always be learning something new about them. In those special times, you might find out that your new boo thang is super lame.

1. They have never seen a "Harry Potter" movie.

Anyone who doesn’t live under a rock has seen "Harry Potter." Everyone has, at least, one reason to go see it. I mean, who doesn’t wanna see Emma Watson? Or the Weasleys? I can’t even fathom how anyone can go through their life not seeing at least one movie.

2. They always take all the blanket in their sleep.

Nothing ruins a great nap together by having your best friend roll over and take all of the blanket. How dare you betray me in your sleep? This one isn’t really “lame material” -- it’s just kinda annoying.

3. When you both share the same favorite cereal.

You know you’re going to have a bad time if you both like Frosted Flakes. What happens if you end up moving in together and they eat all of your cereal and leave an empty box? They’re going to be sleeping in the bathtub that night.

4. When they use really bad puns to make you laugh.

It’s a huge red flag when they use a cringe-worthy pun on your first date. For example, “What’s the difference between a hippo and a zippo?” I wasn’t ready for the answer and it physically hurt to hear it.

5. They say “I’m not cute, I’m manly.”

Whenever your significant other says this, just smile and nod because if they want to think they’re manly, then let them. (Between you and me, we both know it’s not true, but we won’t tell them that.)

6. They lose to you in Mario Kart.

Mario Kart is one of the biggest friendship-ruiners next to Uno. Whoever wins basically gets bragging rights for the rest of their life or until the other wins.

7. When they say “Thanks, you, too” to a waiter after they tell us to enjoy our meal.

After witnessing them make the biggest mistake of their life is a great conversation starter for the whole date honestly. After this happens, you have a free pass to make fun of them as much as you want until you make the same mistake.

8. Someone who talks during movies.

“Uh huh, that’s nice babe, hush and let me watch Bradley Cooper do his thing.”

9. They have referenced a meme in one of your conversations.

It’s really frustrating when you’re trying to be serious and your significant other keeps saying “Ha got ‘em!”


After your significant other is finished reading this, they’re probably going to try to convince you that they don’t do any of these things or that they’re not lame. If they try to, just stay strong because they needed to hear this. These things are a little hard to look past, some more difficult than others. I mean, who hasn’t seen "Harry Potter?" Despite this, lame-o’s have to stick together and I bet your lame-o is pretty darn cool. I know mine is.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
