Being Comfortable is Key

When a family is welcoming and loving, the relationship will thrive.

I think that a person's family says a lot about who they are, and how your relationship with them will go, whether it's romantic or not. Families are a peek into your future with that person, if they have a rocky family life, chances are that your relationship with that person will be rocky as well. But if they have a warm, welcoming family, that could give you an amazing relationship with that person.

This happened to me right before my eyes. I had a first love in high school who, of course, I saw myself marrying. But when left alone with his family, I felt uncomfortable. I always felt like I couldn't be myself and that I had to always be on guard for questions or conversations. As expected, that relationship ended. And when I met my current boyfriend, it was a whole new world.

I have the most amazing relationship with my boyfriend, but also with his mother and brother. I can sleep over his house when he's not there and have the best time. I spend more time with his mom and brother than I do with him (#marinegirlfriendprobs). I am so completely comfortable with his family and that means the world to me. Families play a huge role in a relationship and I am so blessed to have such a great relationship with his family.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
