The Perfect Guy Doesn't Exist, But The Perfect Guy For YOU Does

Love is hard. Relationships are work. Finding the right person is even harder, especially in today's world where dating culture - to put it bluntly - sucks.

One thing to keep in mind through the ups and downs of dating and relationships is that no one is perfect. It's something that is really hard to come to terms with, especially when you've found someone you're completely infatuated with. Over time, however, you'll find little things that bother you or a flaw that drives you nuts. But at the end of the day, you need to look at the bigger picture. Are those flaws big enough, bad enough, or don't work with your core values, to end it? That's the question you need to ask yourself.

You can be in a relationship for six months, three years, or fifteen years, and you'll need to always remind yourself every once in a while that no one is perfect. Also, hate to break it to you, but you're not perfect either. Everyone has flaws. Everyone makes mistakes and everyone is going to feel like there's nothing wrong with the way they're living their lives. All of that is okay, but you need to remember that no one, ever, is 100% flawless.

So when you're looking for your prince charming, remember that everyone is going to mess up. Everyone is going to make mistakes. However, you need to also realize that there will be that one person you do find that you love with all of your heart and choose day in and day out, and he'll choose you, means that he is perfect for you.

Trust me, even the guy that's perfect for you can drive you crazy with little things he does, flaws or habits he has, and that goes to show that no one is perfect. But he is perfect for you. He loves you and you love him and no matter what happens, you two will stand by each others' sides and when you find that person, don't let them go.

The perfect guy just doesn't exist. There is no one out there that doesn't have at least one flaw, but that doesn't mean that he isn't perfect for you. The next time you judge a guy because he wore sandals to the bar, make sure to remember that just because he looks a little silly, doesn't mean he isn't perfect for you.

Everything about finding your person can be a headache - from dating, to breaking up with the wrong ones, to anything else in between that could happen - but don't forget that when you do find that person, it's going to be the greatest experience of your life. They won't be perfect because no one is, but they will love you and be there and at the end of the day, they'll be 100% perfect for you and your world.

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.
