How I Became The Late Night Text

After my last break up which hit me pretty hard, I didn't care about anything or anyone. I was a party girl I guess you could say. I had hookups but always tried to turn them into more because I wanted a boyfriend. I definitely was not in the right state of mind though so I stopped with the random hookups and learned to find myself. Where I found myself was afraid to fall in love again. I didn't want to commit and once I gained feelings for someone I would leave. I went almost a year without having sex because it took a title for me to sleep with a guy until I met you.

When I met you I had a "thing" with a guy I finally wasn't afraid to try and have a title with. Him and I had been hanging out and acting like boyfriend/girlfriend for almost 6 months. I still refused to have sex with him. Then you came along and changed everything. I met you once before but only for a hi and a bye at my nephews birthday party. The second time was at my brothers because my sister invited you in. We flirted but you were drunk so I didn't think anything of it plus I liked another guy. Soon after we finished wrapping presents, it was time to go to bed. I went up to my bedroom at my brothers only for you to follow. There were two bedrooms upstairs. I let you choose which one you wanted. I started to get ready to lay down only for you to crawl into my bed. I told you I was going to sleep but there was something about you I couldn't resist. So I allowed what happened to happen. The next morning I woke up to feel guilty but so happy. We said goodbye and I never expected to hear from you again.

Little did I know, I would and it became a weekly hookup between us. I started to push away the guy I liked and I chose to do that when I left hanging out with him to go sleep with you. I soon stopped all contact with him and the guilt was lifted off my shoulders. I didn't know what was happening between us but I didn't care. You were invited to different events with me, my brother, sister and nephews which to me just gave us another reason to see each other.

We'd go days sometimes weeks without speaking then a random text would come onto my phone and I knew exactly what it said only because it was a Thursday. I knew what we were friends with benefits. Then one night when your phone went off and the text was from your best friend asking if you were going home or trying to get some and you replied the second answer, something in me triggered. I didn't like what I felt so that night I let you lay beside me, cuddle me, kiss me but I was not having sex with you. I didn't that night but next week or the next time we hang out I probably will because you are my late night text too.

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.
