Low Standards

Girls standards for guys.

Girls, our standards for guys is so low. The other day I was having a conversation with one of my friends and she said that the boy she has been talking to tells her she is beautiful and that he wants to marry her someday. She followed this with "but he just want to kiss me" and "this is the first time a boy has ever been this nice to me." I was shocked the fact that the first time a boy is being nice to her is when he is trying to get something from her. Also I believe she really likes him and a big part of that is because he is being sweet to her. I am not trying to say that being sweet to a girl is bad, it is actually really awesome the guys that are being genuine to girls. I hope y'all never change.

The fact of the matter is girls expect boys to be terrible to them. So when guy comes a long and gives the smallest about of effort to not seem like a total asshole, girls jump at the chance to be with them. I have been lucky enough to become friends with some really awesome men who are going to make some girl very happy. Now with that being said it means that there is still hope out there that their is a guy who isn't hiding the fact that he's an asshole, there are nice guys in the world you just have to give them a chance. As girls we need to realize our worth and that the man does not hold all the power. We do. We are the Gold Medal, men should have to try and make us happy not just half-ass it until they get bored and move on.

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.
