How It Feels To Be The Girl Who's Never Been In A Relationship

It's okay to have never been in a relationship before.

Last week, a friend and I were talking about how we have never had boyfriends before, and it seems like the world just hates us. It’s fall again, and it seems like everyone is in a relationship at this time of the year (I don’t know why). When you aren't in a relationship, and everyone around you seems to be in one, it can be depressing.

But then you start to re-evaluate your life. When you haven’t even been on a date with a guy, and you’re 18-years-old (like me), it's something that can be hard to talk about with someone else. Also, when it seems like guys never notice you, it can be hard to talk about to your friends. But, honestly who cares? Who cares that I have never been in a relationship before? No, it’s not because I am awkward and I am scared to talk to guys. Trust me, I have talked to guys before but they do not want me to be a part of my life for the right reasons. I just haven’t found the right one yet. It’s been really hard to come to that realization — because I have started to ask myself: Is it because of the way I look or dress? Am I just a terrible person? Does the world just hate me?

No, the world doesn’t hate me, you, or anyone else. The time just isn’t here yet. The time will come, you just have to be patient. I know that waiting sucks, but when the time does come, you will be happy that you waited for someone. Don’t settle. Find someone who is perfect to you, and likes you for who you are.

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.
