Trust Me, Do These 8 Things For The Girl That Loves Sports

Do you have a girl that loves sports in your life? Here's some advice.

1. Buy her merch from her favorite team

Whether it be a jersey, mug, or a simple sticker, help her rep her favorite team!

2. Stop being condescending

Honestly, this could be a whole article in itself. In fact, check this one out, it's spot on. Basically, treat her like you would a guy that likes sports because there's literally no difference.

3. Acknowledge her love for sports

Bring up her favorite sports, teams, and players in conversation. It's a great leeway to talk about it and really get to know her thoughts and opinions as well as showing her you know what she likes.

4. Have good discussions

Whether it be new team acquisitions or plays in games that happened years ago, she probably has an opinion... and it might not be the same as yours. Discussing controversial ideas not only allows you to get to know her point of view but also helps you to know her as a person.

5. Teach her more (in a genuine way)

Giphy

She loves sports. She knows a lot about sports. But she doesn't know everything there is to know. Through discussion, you can teach each other things. Flags, formations, coaching styles, past teams, etc. There are a lot of rules. There are a lot of sports.

6. Watch games with her

It's easy time together and you can see her love of the game in action.

7. Don't expect her to know every little detail

Don't go quizzing her on obscure facts from the 80's and then bash her when she doesn't know them. If it was thrown back on you, it's doubtful that you would measure up either.

8. Ask her about her opinions

Just like with basically anything, asking people their opinions on literally anything lets them know that you care. Ask her who she likes and why... it'll go a long way.

If a girl in your life likes sports, acknowledge and cherish it and watch and talk about sports all day because she won't mind.

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.
