To My Best Friend, Who Needs To Leave The Toxic Boy Behind

You're way too good for him

To My Best Friend, Who Needs To Leave The Toxic Boy Behind
WikiHow

It's never easy to know when to cut the ties. Everyone deserves someone who treats them like they're supposed to be treated. When there's someone hanging around who is basically like a leech in your life, you just can't seem to let them go; but you have to. Your friends may see it, your family may see it, and you may think that they're attacking you. But you need to take their advice to heart.

These horrible people know exactly where they stand in your life. They know how much they mean to you. They know you're willing to do anything to make them happy. They take advantage of that. They know that nothing they say or do will keep you separated, because you'll always come back to them.

They know that however many times they yell at you, cheat on you, ignore you, or belittle you, they have the full power.

You are so much better than that. You deserve to be treated like the wonderful human being you are. You deserve to wake up every morning smiling and feeling loved. You shouldn't feel like you're constantly walking on eggshells to avoid getting a bad reaction from him.

You deserve a man who loves every curve of your body, every freckle on your face, and cherishes every minute you spend together. Someone who laughs at every bad joke and holds your hand delicately yet firmly enough to let you know that they want you forever.

I know it can be scary to be alone, but you never have to be. I am right by your side through all of this.

I don't mean to be so critical of the boys in your life, but I can see very clearly when the person you're with doesn't treat you right.

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.
