I Don't Want A 'Pick Me, Choose Me' Kind Of Love

And yes, I am a Greys fan.

I Don't Want A 'Pick Me, Choose Me' Kind Of Love
Losing Lindsey

"Pick Me, Choose Me, Love Me..." Every Grey's Anatomy fan is aware of this famous quote said by Meredith Grey. In fact, I have this very quote as a sticker on my laptop, but the more I look at it and read it, the more I realize I don't want a "pick me, choose me" kind of love. It is so easy to get wrapped up in the moment of that scene (mainly because you are watching McDreamy) that you don't actually realize what that line entails. Meredith is literally begging and crying to Derek to pick her and choose her over Addison.

See, I don't want to be an option and I don't want there to be a choice. I want to be the only person someone loves, that they don't even have to think twice about it. I am not going to wait around for a man to decide whether he wants me or not. I don't want to be the girl who waits for the love of her life to get over the love of their life. I refuse to let myself be someone's number two only to remain a number two when a new girl comes around. I will not do that to myself.

Feeling desperate and unappreciated lessens you as a human being and no one should feel that way, which is why I am perfectly content with waiting for a love that starts strong and ends stronger. So please, if you have to pick between me and someone else don't pick me, don't choose me, and don't love me.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
