For The Girl Falling For The 'Too-Good-To-Be-True' Guy

The basic set-up of the wrong guy.

For The Girl Falling For The 'Too-Good-To-Be-True' Guy

On paper, he's everything you want. He's funny, intelligent, caring, hardworking, determined... and your family LOVES him. So what's wrong with him?

The Hook:

He'll do anything to get you to fall in love. Those shoes you've been crying over, he bought them. That midnight snack you tweeted about... it's on your front door and your phone just rang, him telling you to go look outside. And you will fall in love.

Women are not weak and we are not stupid. But some of us love so hard that we become blind to the little things that we should be watching out for. We are victims of sweet talk, we hear "you look amazing tonight," and we swoon. It's not because we're desperate it's because something inside us is prone to fall for the right words. If you have fallen for that guy, don't worry... we all have.

The Line:

This boy is smooth. He knows what you want to hear, even if he doesn't mean it. Don't worry though, we all get caught up in the line. This is where we lose a little bit of ourselves to see what he wants. You're changing your humor, the way you dress, how much makeup you do or do not wear, and the friends you're hanging out with.

You won't even notice it either... you'll think everything is normal and happy; but in reality, that 'little bit' turns into more and more. BUT you won't notice it because you're too busy being in love.

The Sinker:

This could range from a lot of things guys can say. In my experience it's been, "I've never been with anyone as good for me as you", "I think I'm falling in love with you" OR my favorite, "I love you." IT'S ONLY BEEN A MONTH. 9/10 times it's all a lie and they're just trying to tie you down.

They don't love you. I don't believe you can fall in love in one month... I'm not sitting here taking a swing at love because I do believe it... but I also believe in lust, and we all believe in lust.


It's okay if you fall for this while you're young, but the older you get the wiser you should be. Don't fall for the guy who watches your twitter and gets you that kit-kat you've been wanting; fall for the guy who listens when you speak, buys you a book of poetry because one reminded you of them, folds your laundry when you're sick, and doesn't mind walking your dog late at night.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me

This one's for you, Spock.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.
