There are easy ways to make sure your partner stays happy, and they are COMPLETELY free. Contrary to what people may believe, you don't have to spend a dime on your boyfriend/girlfriend in order to have a relationship. Materialistic things can only get you so far in having a genuine, healthy, and REAL relationship.

1. Loyalty/Trust

Okay, this is a BIGGIE for me. I don't know about y'all, but in a relationship, something that is SO important to me is knowing that my partner has my back and that I can trust them. The first way to ensure that your relationship is built on loyalty and trust is simply having a solid friendship. After all, you wouldn't hurt your best friend, would you?

Nope.

2. Communication

It is common that relationships fail from lack of communication, and it is sad because this should be easily avoidable if you and your partner just TALK, right?

It is important to communicate with your partner what they/you want, need, dislike, etc. in a relationship. It is important to know what/how your partner needs to be loved. Unfortunately, if both parties in the relationship don't know how to communicate with each other effectively, then the relationship can potentially crash & burn at any point.

3. Your Time

Okay, this is something that should be a no-brainer. Everyone wants to feel like a priority, and the easiest way to make sure your partner feels important is by giving your partner your time. It's become common for in, society for everyone to sit with our faces buried in our phones instead of engaging in actual conversation.

So, put your phone down and, get to know each other.

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.
