Choose The Guy:

Let me start off by saying that we are not perfect people, but we can find the perfect person. Confused? Probably, because I was too.

It took me many years, many heart breaks, and many lessons before I found the person that I could see myself spending the rest of my life with. I know a lot of people will say you're too young to know what love is, or that we are rushing things, that we need to take our time because there is a lot of other "things" out there. But, to be honest with you, I don't want to do those other "things" without him beside me doing them with me.

So let me begin, choose the guy who is down for you, only you. Might sound cheesy but do it. Yes, he can have other females in his life, but there's a balance and there is a boundary. You are his first priority (behind family of course, eventually you will be family to them as well) but you can't be mad at him if there is a girl in his life that has been there for him as a friend for years. I'm positive you have a male in your life that has been there for you. Now, you can get jealous, upset, mad, but you can not ask him to get rid of her. Choose the guy that knows that you're relationship is just as important as those around him. Choose the guy that puts you in an important place in his life and cherishes you like you are the best thing that has happened to him.

Second, choose the guy who will love you and give you what you need unconditionally. Relationships are not wrapped around presents and buying things for one another ALL THE TIME. Shower your girl with love, cuddles, massages, and cute text messages. It doesn't take a lot. But, seriously, choose the guy who will go out of his way to put a smile on your face. Choose the guy who knows when you need your back rubbed or plays with your hair because he knows you love it. Choose the guy who would go out of his way to buy you your favorite food and coffee and surprise you at work when you're a having one of the worst days. Choose the guy that can tell just by one text that you are not okay and that you need him to be there.

Lastly, choose the guy who may not be the best looking, the goofy one, the one with the good personality, the one who loves his family, has a head on his shoulders, and truly and honestly respects you for you. Choose the guy who is there for you, every time you need him. Choose the guy that knows sometimes it's okay not to see each other every day but still makes the effort so you know that you are loved and missed. Choose the guy who would sleep on the floor after an argument because he knows you "need your space". Choose the guy who knows you up and down, inside and out. Choose that guy.

You'll find him. I promise. When you do, cherish him, keep him, love him, spoil him with affection and attention. Show him that you are the girl he needs to choose too.

It's an amazing feeling having that connection with someone that you have never had before. You don't know what real love is until you start dating the person who is not only your significant other but your best friend.

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.
