An Open Letter To My Guy Best Friend's Girlfriend

You aren't what I expected you to be.

Hey you,

I don't know how to actually say this but I don’t like you. That's the truth, I don't like you but only because I love you.

I remember when he told me that he got a new girlfriend and I honestly thought you guys would only last two months tops. Three at the most. However, you have proved me wrong because now it’s been a couple of years. That would’ve surprised me back then but now I don’t even question it. It's so natural to me that you guys have been together for a long time.

The funny thing is that now I hang out with you more than I hang out with him which isn’t a bad thing. I just see you more than I see him. But if you guys fight, then I am loyal to no one yet loyal to both of you guys at the same time. Sounds complicated so please, don’t fight because if I do ever catch either one you slipping, I will beat both of your butts.

I love when we all hang out together that we usually end up teaming up against him. Suddenly, it's no longer you and him but you and me. When we get together, we are a force to reckon with. He literally has to yell at us to shut up and be quiet. But do we quiet down? Of course not! If anything, we get even louder to annoy him.

I’m thankful that you aren’t the type of girlfriend that keeps him all to herself and doesn’t like interacting with his friends. Or the type of girl that doesn’t like his friends that are girls. Some girls lose their guy best friends when they get a girlfriend but this isn’t the case. I actually gained a friend because of it.

I don’t say this often as a matter of fact I don’t say it all but you guys are actually a really cute couple. Like, annoyingly cute. I know that I’ll be at your wedding (someday). I expect to be at both the bachelor and bachelorette party. I actually assume I'll play a very important role in that wedding, just saying. Bridesmaid or, ahem, one of the best (wo)men.

I want to let you know that I’m really happy you guys are together because I got to meet you. You are an amazing beautiful girl. I am so grateful that we have become great friends. We shop together. We definitely go eat together. We laugh a whole bunch together. We go support him at his sports games together. We party together... sometimes a little too much. We just get each other.

Thank you for putting up with him but also putting up with me.

Love you,

Your boyfriend’s girl best friend.

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.
