10 Ways To Use Tinder Like A Boss
Tinder / Instagram

Everyone is on Tinder. It's a great way to meet people and some people have even met their soulmates. But Tinder and the sites like it can be dangerous, so it's important to be cautious... and Tinder like a boss.

1. Know your limits

Before you even download the app, know what you're looking for. Whether you just want to meet people or you're willing to hook up, you need to decide beforehand so you don't get in over your head.

2. Be vocal about what you want out of it

Not only should you know you want from the experience, but you should be vocal about it. Don't be afraid to be blunt in your bio. It'll save you and the person swiping a lot of trouble.

3. Be unapologetically picky

Your heart is on the line, therefore you have got to be picky. There's nothing wrong with snubbing in this case.

4. Tell people where you're going or what the plan is

When you go anywhere on a Tinder date, tell anyone willing to listen what the plan is. The who, what, where, and when. It's so important that your friends know you're safe.

5. Make your bio short and sweet

Tinder bios don't need to be longer than the Bible. A quick list of interests and a funny quote is more than fine. Keep some mystery!

6. Give them something to look forward to

Even after the bio, you have to give them something to come back for.

7. Be comfortable and cute every step of the way

There should never be a time in one's Tinder experience where they find themselves uncomfortable.

8. Don't just swipe right for looks

It can be easy to want to swipe right for the people who look appealing, but personality is a huge factor. Swipe right for witty bios, people who have similar interests, and funny quotes.

9. Link your Spotify if you have one

What a person listens to says a lot about them so the fact that you can link your Spotify to Tinder is really cool!

10. Be yourself!

This is the most important rule of dating! Just because it's Tinder, it doesn't mean you have to sacrifice your personality,

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.
