Ladies, If A Guy Doesn't Like You For You, Drop Him

"Don't be afraid of losing people, be afraid of losing yourself trying not to lose someone."

If a guy wants you to change who you are for him, he simply isn't the one for you.

I am sick and tired of guys believing that they can tell women how to dress, act, and fix their hair. If you told me that my t-shirt and shorts weren't gonna cut it, I'd kick you to the curb real quick. I know my worth, and I don't go through my day trying to please others. If you're happy in your t-shirt and shorts, awesome! If you're happy dressing up on a daily basis, that's cool too! Just be yourself!

You do not have to change how you go through your life, just because some pathetic excuse for a man told you he expects more.

I grew up a very strong-minded young lady, and I didn't take crap from anyone. You don't like me? That's fine, you probably aren't my cup of tea either. If I wanna do something, I'm more than likely going to do it, and I'm going to do it my way. Contrary to many men's beliefs, women have brains that work! We are able to think on our own. We do not need you trying to tell us what to do 24/7.

If a guy tries to change your opinion on a subject, he isn't for you. If a guy makes you feel worthless, he isn't for you. If a guy tells you to act differently, he simply isn't for you. Find someone who likes you for you—not someone who wants you to change the aspects of your life that make you, you! Don't be the girl who lets guys think that it's okay to treat us like crap on a daily basis. This will ultimately lead to your own destruction!

One day, you will wake up to find that you've lost yourself, all because you wanted to impress a guy. If you change one thing about yourself for a guy, he'll want you to keep changing into what he wants you to be. By doing this, you have allowed him to play "Barbie." He will now see you as someone he can manipulate and take advantage of. Do you really want that? Take a minute and ask yourself, would you want someone to treat your daughter like this? Wouldn't you tell her to stand up for herself and get rid of him? Take your own advice, and drop him.

Teach yourself to know that your opinions of yourself are far more important than someone else's opinions of you. There will always be someone who doesn't like you, and that's okay! Don't let anyone make you feel like less of a person, because you think, act, or dress differently than they do. You are a strong, beautiful, intelligent woman, and no one can take that away from you!

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.
