I Appreciate My Girlfriend For These 5 Things And Even More
Rachel Norris

In This Article:

Everyone has a person that accepts and loves them, regardless of the flaws that a person may have, or the problems the relationship goes through. Such a person is a special thing to have in life and should never be taken for granted. I appreciate my person tremendously, even if I don't state so often enough. Each person has their difficulties and I for one am not an exception to that. Putting up with any amount of another deserves some recognition.

1. Accepting my quirks.

Madi Fuertsch

From my need to check for spiders, triple locking cars, to my insane love for Harry Potter. She deals with it and better yet, accept the weirdness I show. There is no judgment for things that may be a bit or unconventional, instead just a loving acceptance that makes me feel loved and accepted.

2. Being there for me.

Mary Cassel

After a hard day or a failed test, there's no one I want to talk to more. Picking me up when I'm down in a supportive and loving way makes them all I want when such days occur.

3. Being supportive.

Rachel Norris

Life ambitions and goals are something we have shared and built up for each other. Each wants the other to succeed in those goals. When I accomplish anything, she is the first I want to share the excitement and achievement with.

4  Constrictive criticism.

Madi Fuertsch

Although I can't say that I actually enjoy criticism, it makes me a better person regardless. Someone else seeing my flaws and being able to point them out in a helpful way is a viewpoint I would never see alone without them. Helping me become a better person is something I can't say I would achieve without her.

5. Quality Time

Madi Fuertsch

Whether it be a lazy night in, making a meal together, or taking a hike out in the nice weather. She always takes the time out of her busy schedule to make sure there is time for me. Even on the weeks when it's exceptionally busy, the time is still made, and it may be a study date instead, Even when studying is what we do most of the time together it's still quality time that I love to spend.

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.
