Okay, get off your dating apps for a second and just listen to me. You're not going to find Mr. Right on Tinder or any other dating app out there. I promise you if you do find someone, the odds of you ending up with that person are pretty slim. If it does happen for you, then you're one of the really lucky ones.

Stop worrying about being with someone and just focus on bettering yourself and someone great will come along later. Yes, it'll suck to be alone for a while but if you surround yourself with the right friends then it won't be lonely.

I promise the guys you're getting off the dating apps most likely won't be worth it later. There are other ways to meet your future husband or boyfriend without the internet and that's called meeting them in person. Join some clubs, sports, or even just in class.

Although I may write about how 95% of men aren't looking for anything serious, I never truly talk about the 5%. I firmly believe that there's a strong 5% of men that have good intentions. I've met men that fall into this category, yet I still fall for the ones that fall into the 95% category.

We can't always blame everything on men even though it's easier to do that. As females, we tend to like the "bad boys" when all the bad boys are going to do is break our hearts. We are taught growing up from many movies that a good girl can change a bad boy but I promise you in real life you can't do that.

Stop chasing the bad boys hoping that they'll change their ways for you because for the most part, it doesn't end up the way it does in the movies.

There are guys out there with good intentions, I promise. You just have to stop looking in the wrong places or just looking in general. Just take it slow and when the time is right someone great will appear when you least expect it.

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.
