Hate To Break It To You, But Being Fake Is So Not Cute

Hate To Break It To You, But Being Fake Is So Not Cute
Alayna Robertson

Since when is being fake in style? It shouldn't be. Females should be empowering others and focusing on unifying us all, not breaking the bonds of us all. The power of womanhood should inspire us all to be united. We should be coming together in tough times. I don't know who decided one day to pin girls against each other, but it needs to stop. Why go out of your way to just be mean? It doesn't take much work to just be nice and genuine, instead of tearing girls apart.

It is sickening to see women hate on women.

What happened to the future is female?

Scrolling through newsfeeds and seeing other woman comment hurtful things on another woman's post, just because of a different view or belief, is not okay. Yes, this is America, we all have freedom of speech. That doesn't mean it's okay to be hurtful if someone does not agree with you. We should not be focused on our differences, we should be focused on our similarities. We don't need to reverse history.

Being petty and fake just isn't cute, girly. So wipe that "resting bitch face" off. Start making friends and talking to people, just be REAL for once. There is something special about the trait of innocence. If we all were a little more innocent sometimes and less stuck in our ways, women could get along with everyone.

It's 2018, games are for children.

Don't be that petty girl and unfollow someone on Instagram just to prove a point.

Don't talk behind someone's back because you're mad at them, confront them.

Don't comment on someone's post to start a fight, let them be.

Just don't be fake. Plain and simple.

Remember, being fake never looks cute.

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.
