It's OK To Stop Asking Friends To Hang Out If You're Always The One Asking

If you're one of those people that are always asking your friends if they wanna hang out but it's never reciprocated its OK to just stop asking.

Because it's not fair to you, it makes you feel like they aren't as invested in your friendship as you are and you deserve to have friends that are there for you and that want to put the effort into the friendship just as much as you do! It shows that they may be just don't care anymore.

The phone works both ways, you can't say you miss me when you don't call or text me!

Honestly, your friends can be super busy, but if you find the time in your equally busy schedule to see them than they can do the same. You deserve friends who will support you and want to be around you. After a while you feel like do they even want to hang out with me, you start to question everything.

It's OK to just see what happens if you don't talk to them for a while, if they start calling you then maybe they do care but if they don't then you will know you made the right decision.

We all know that life can get in the way sometimes but that's when you have to make the most effort because then you start to grow apart but if you really want to keep the friendship you put in the effort. It's not like you have to talk every day but just to ask to hang out every once in a while, just grab a coffee. It's the little gestures that mean the most.

In the end, people just want to feel like you want to be there friend just as much as the wanna be yours.

As childish as that sounds, friends are important and if you don't feel like your friendship is a two-way street, it's OK to end 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.
