Life is not all about grand gestures or just doing things when needed. A big part of everyone's life is the little things.

Whether it's paying for another person's drink at Starbucks, letting someone cut you in line, or even opening the door for someone, it's all about the little things.

All of these "little things" in life add up. This is definitely true for relationships of all types. Sure, your girl might love it if on her birthday you went all out, but she would also love it more if you showered her with love every day, even if it's something as simple or cheesy.

Girls don't always want big gestures, sometimes they just want attention and affection.

Here are 17 of the "little things" that every girl will love. And while this may be focused on what the boys should do for their girls, this does not mean that it should be one-sided. A relationship goes both ways and both members should show their appreciation for the other.

Surprise her with her favorite candy. 

Maybe she had a bad day, maybe she's on her period, or maybe you just want to surprise her.

Get her flowers. 

You never have to have a reason to buy her flowers. It's one of those "just because" moments.

Hold her hand. 

It's the simplest form of affectionate (that won't make others gag when you're in public).

Kiss her forehead. 

Simple and sweet.

Surprise her with a date. 

It doesn't have to be fancy. It could be watching the sunset, getting ice cream, or having a paint night.

Write her a love note. 

Think along the lines of sticky note on her mirror.

Send "good morning" and "good night" texts. 

Show her that she's on your mind.

Invite her to run errands with you. 

Even if it's getting groceries or simply picking up a game at GameStop.

Laugh at her jokes. 

Even if they're silly and stupid.

 Say "thank you." 

It doesn't matter if all she did was get you a soda or cook you dinner, show her you appreciate her.

Give her a massage (that doesn't lead to sex). 

Who doesn't love a good back massage or a foot massage?

 Run her a bubble bath. 

Maybe she had a bad day at work or she's stressed out. Pamper her.

 Get excited about the things she's excited about. 

Whether it's because she got new makeup or because she landed the job of her dreams.

 Compliment her.

Let her know she looks good, whether she's all dressed up or wearing a t-shirt riddled with holes.

 Talk about your feelings or about your day.

I guarantee she'd love it if you opened up to her without her having to ask.

 Take pictures of her. 

It doesn't matter if you just save them on your phone or post them on your story.

 Open the door for her. 

Be a gentleman, whether it's the door to a building or even the car door.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
