Men, It's Not That Hard To Please Women, We Don’t Want Your Expensive Gifts, We Just Want Your Time And Energy

I don't want your $200 necklace with a heart on it, just text me back faster.

There are so many guys who come to me and ask why the girl they like isn't responding to their advances and I ask them what they are doing. The usual answers are fancy dinners and expensive gifts. I answer the same way every time, girls are not that hard to please, which I guess is confusing to men.

Social media, society, and even a handful of the female population make men believe that women want and need fancy things to be pleased and to stay with a guy when in reality, the small stuff is what goes far. Flowers, a cute note, coffee every now and then when we mention that we're stressed and tired. Please don't try and win me over with a puppy or a brand new Michael Kors bag because the Instagram famous model said in her caption that she's so happy that her man got her the bag. If you are struggling to text your girl back within the hour, the day or at worst—the week; fix that first. Problems can be helped with a quick gift but more importantly an apology and changing your behavior will go a lot farther than you throwing money towards me.

If you find yourself draining your bank account or your girl(s), yet your responses to texts are so dry, fix that first. Respond and start up conversations rather than going out to the club or to parties. If we're talking over dinner, I will be more open to talking and making a connection with you than if you're chatting me up while at a party with loud music and drunk people. I'll cherish the gifts you got me, but if I find myself accumulating a pile of gifts yet never being able to hang out with you or even get to see you, I might just sell the gifts and move on. Busy is busy, but making an effort to spend time with me and putting effort into a gift makes me feel like you care a lot more than just physical object that you took only a couple of minutes to get.

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.
