How To Keep Your Man Happy

Because the most important part of college is not passing classes or making friends, it is about keeping a boyfriend.

How To Keep Your Man Happy
SixSeeds

College is the perfect time in one's life to be in a happy, healthy and stable relationship. Especially since most of the people in college have never been in a relationship longer than six months, why not give it the "old college try" and find the love of your life sitting in English 102 or at the next fraternity party? Once you have found this said "love of your life," you better keep him happy. Otherwise he will leave you and you lose all purpose in life.

After countless hours of research to make sure I keep my boyfriend around, I found the perfect list to make sure you, too, can cling to your purpose...

1. Make sure you know where he is at all times.

Apple would not have created the app "Find You Friends" if they did not want you to find your boyfriend and know where he is. Trust me, he wants you to know where he is, too. That way, if he is not answering his phone, but you see he is at home, you can pout and be angry when you do finally see him.

2. Make sure you are completely composed when around him.

Your man should not have to know what you look like without your hair and makeup complete. You cannot have him know that you have had a bad hair day, a single pimple or even slightly smelly breath. If you do not have your physique composed, he will just find a woman who is much prettier than you.

3. If you aren't being needy, you aren't doing your job.

Every man wants to know he is needed. It increases his testosterone and asserts his dominance over you. Do you have a peanut butter jar that is a little snug? Act helpless then beg for his assistance. Slightly chilly? Over-exaggerate how cold you are until he gives you his jacket, then tell him how thoughtful he is.

4. But make sure you give him his space.

After being a damsel in distress, make sure to give him his space at the close of a long day. He wants to know you need him, but only when he wants you to need him.

5. Praise him.

After he opened the jar of peanut butter or gave you his jacket, you need to make sure the whole world knows. Some of the best ways to accomplish this would be to write a nice post on Twitter or Facebook, send an email or tell everyone who walks by. Everyone should know you have the best boyfriend because then he really knows he's amazing.

These are five easy things that you can do daily to make sure you keep your college dream around. He will understand, then, that women's lives are dedicated to men and they are here just to make their lives easier.

Ladies, when it comes to relationships, you do what makes you happy. There is no need for a guide on how to act in relationships. You do you, and it will fall into place.

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.
