What It Feels Like To Have My First Boyfriend

My happy new experience.

What It Feels Like To Have My First Boyfriend
Evelyn Castillo

It happened. An actual boy talked to me, and now we are dating. It was all very unexpected, but I am very happy that it happened. The experience is new, and I am still in the process of understanding what it is like to be in a serious relationship.

Someone new entering your life gives you a wide range of emotions. It can be scary, but very exciting. When we first started to get to know each other, there was a constant feeling of nervousness and uncertainty that made me feel extremely cautious of what I said or how I presented myself. As our conversations got longer and more in depth, I soon realized that he really understands me. Our friendship progressed, and I soon felt comfortable. He also started to feel comfortable with me, and that made me happy.

I'm used to being alone and just doing my own thing. Having to sacrifice some time for someone else was an adjustment but it is worth every second. Having someone there to share a meal with at the end of the day, especially when you are so far from home, is definitely nice. He is there for me no matter what and actually cares about what I have to say. He is also a sweetheart who always makes me laugh, which is by far one of his best qualities (but I'm still the funnier one). Not only does he have a decent sense of humor, but he is smart, weird (in a good way) and of course, he knows how to treat a lady. Oh, did I mention that he is pretty good looking?

The greatest thing that has come out of this relationship is the friendship we have built. Even though we have only known each other for about five months, I consider him as one of my best friends. He is one of the most genuine people i know.

We have gone through a lot so far, and it has definitely been memorable. As you can see, I am extremely grateful and happy to have this new, positive person in my life.

For those who have given up in finding a nice guy, there are still some out there. In time, especially when you are not looking for it, someone will enter your life. When they do, you will see everything is worth the wait.

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.
