15 Ways You Know You're In An Honest-To-God, Long-Term Relationship

In This Article:

When you know the relationship is serious...

1. You fart in front of each other

2. You can joke around.

Sarcasm is your best friend. Saying "I hate you" really means "I love you". You have tickle fights, or pretend fights. You are silly together.

3. You do that laugh.

The one where it sounds like pure happiness. The one that you never really do. The one you really only do with them.

4. You have a TV series you watch together

5. When you call your parents they ask how your partner is doing.

It's the best feeling ever, being told "I was on the phone with my mom and she asked about you so I told her everything"

​6. When you guys aren't together, you miss each other.

You just left? Yea I miss you already. It doesn't matter the time of day or what you're doing, you still miss them. You have phone calls when you cant see each other because you know its the next best thing

7. You're still learning about them

You don't learn big things every day. Sometimes this could just be learning about their thoughts/feelings. Other times its their weird querks.

8. You have your own lives

You give each other space; have your own hobbies, thoughts, likes, dislikes, and friend groups.

9. That doesn't mean you can't do things together

Go out with my group of friends? Of course! Have them become your friends? Best thing ever! But we can hang out with them without one another.

10. You can be in complete silence and feel comfortable

11. ​The little things matter the most.

You make them seem like its nothing, yet you do it all the time: "I bought this for you because it made me think of you", randomly stopping by their house to say hi, or leaving them a love note.

12. Sleeping next to each other is common

Its easier to fall asleep next to them then alone. You can fall asleep with them next to you in .5 seconds, but alone it takes forever and a day. Also, hanging out consists of taking so many naps.

13. You talk about the future

You talk about if you want kids, how many, where you want to live, you aspirations, what/where you want your job to be.

14. You're still a united front after being apart

Work, school, family, friends, and life are all things that get in the way of being with each other 247. Despite not seeing each other a lot, or maybe only seeing each other at night, you both still are on the same page; you both are still together.

15. You're selfless.

You're selfless. You do what the other wants to do, even if you hate it

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.
