Us girls are not that complicated.

What Girls Wish Guys Knew

1. As cliché as it sounds, girls just want guys to know that “nothing” means everything.

It’s not what we said, it’s HOW we said it. Clearly, if our voice sounds annoyed, we most likely are. Unless we have resting bitch voice- totally just made that up. If my fiancé asks me “What’s wrong?” and I answer “NUH-thing”, he more than likely did something that totally pissed me off- BEWARE Fiancé!

2. Is there anything on my butt?

For some reason, my guy still doesn’t fully understand why I ask him this. When I’m with my girlfriends, it’s like a no-brainer why I’m asking if there’s anything on my butt- it's that time of the month and I decided to wear tight pants. He get’s super annoyed when I’ve asked him 4 times already, but I have no choice, so he has to deal with it.. right?

3. Must be that time.

Speaking of that time of the month, IF a woman is mad, upset, or just in a bitchy mood, DO NOT assume it’s because aunt flow is visiting. I mean, by all means, be my guest and assume, but do yourself the favor and keep that assumption to yourself, because IF it is that time and you ask that question out loud, you’re going to need the Man up above .

4. Why are you putting makeup on?

*Rolls eyes* My biggest pet peeve is when I’m in the bathroom putting some concealer and mascara on and he just waltz’s in the bathroom to ask why I’m getting “all done up” to go somewhere as simple and as close as the supermarket. Honestly, oh love of mine, I think you’ve seen me more with concealer on, than without, because I don’t even like to look at my dark circles in the mirror. Not that I don’t applaud the woman who embrace themselves fully the way they are, I just like to look less tired than a new mother of a 2 and a half-month-old normally looks. PLUS, this isn’t even makeup boo boo kitty, so don’t test me, because I will pull out my eye shadow pallet, highlighter, winged liner, and Kylie lipkit- don’t test me.

5. You can’t wear that…

I REALLY wish guys knew that when they are dating someone, that they are their partner, NOT their father. I’m sorry, but you cannot tell a woman that she isn’t allowed to wear a certain article of clothing because you think it’s “too revealing”, because of your own insecurities. A woman is entitled to express herself in any way, shape, or form, and if she decides she wants to show a little skin, it’s her body, her life and her decision to do so. Take a seat, please.

6. Stop “sliding in my DM’s”.

I get it, it’s 2016, social media has taken over the world- but if you insist on trying to get the attention of a woman you’re interested in through messaging her on every social media platform, she’s just going to assume you do that with everyone else. No one wants to invest any time or effort into a person that’s jumping from DM to DM. I wish guys would just understand that girls appreciate a personal conversation, rather than talking to each other and getting to know one another through the internet.

These are just the very few examples I could muster up, but I am 100% positive that there are many more examples other girls could come up with. The struggle for women is so real, but we really don't ask for much- just don't do or say something that's going to annoy us.

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.
