If Your Boyfriend's Best Friend Is A Girl

It's not what you think it is, I swear.

What is a best friend? A best friend is someone you can trust and confide in. A best friend is someone you can lean on and expect to have your back when no one else does. A best friend is there for you when you have a bad day and need a person to vent to. That is what a best friend is.

For those of you who have one, you know what it's like to depend on that friend and how twisted your world would be if you didn't have them anymore. So, you have your best friends and your boyfriend has him, but what if his best friend was a girl?

Before you judge us, know that we, the girlfriends, are not the jealous type and we're not insecure. We are very comfortable with ourselves, but there's just one thing that drives us crazy and makes us wonder. When we have a bad day or we are upset, we expect our friends to comfort us, be real and honest, and maybe sometimes give us a hug when we need it. We also expect and hope for the same thing from our boyfriends. But what if she does that for him? What if she is his support system, his pick me up, and a hug when he has a bad day? Are you OK with that? Am I OK with it?

Like I said, we're not going to go through his phone and be nosey because that's not who we are. We care about him and honestly, it's not the fact that he has this best friend that's a girl, it's the fact that you want to be the female figure in his life that he depends on and goes to when he needs the comfort. Is that so wrong? So before you go and judge a book by its cover, realize that we're not here to rat on guys for having girls as best friends, we're here to share that it is not easy and is something that we will deal with, but something that hurts.

So what did you think I was going to write about? How are we just a bunch of jealous girls who want to control our boyfriend's friends? That we would rather have our boyfriends at home with us, rather than living his life? No. Like I said, that is not us and that is not who we are. So, do not be so quick to judge. It's like second grade when your best friend finds a new best friend and suddenly, you are left in the dark. You are happy for their happiness, but it still hurts that they forgot about you.

Best friend, we appreciate your kindness and we appreciate you wanting to be that best friend. We appreciate you and your kindness. We appreciate you devoting your time and patience because that is something that we will never forget. But best friend, go find a new best friend that isn't my boyfriend.

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.
