8 Reasons Why I Love My Guy Best Friend
Kristi Stephens

My girls will always be there for me, but my guy best friend also holds a special place in my heart. When you're a girl with a guy best friend, you understand the unique bond that is formed in an instant. Some people may not understand it, but they don't have to. This friendship should be held onto very tightly. Here are eight reasons why I love my guy best friend:

1. He handles the "are you guys dating?" question like a champ.


Something you just can't escape when you're friends with a member of the opposite sex. It's so nonchalant to shrug it off at this point, or jokingly accept it. Everyone thinks we're dating? Sure, just go with it! #guysandgirlscanbejustfriends

2. He doesn't judge me when I ugly cry in front of him.


Whether I've had a rough day of school work, or I am stressed out, the tears are unavoidable sometimes. No matter how emotional I get, he doesn't run off scared. He lets me do my own thing and is always there with open arms.

3. The best advice is given by him and he always knows just what to say.

Sometimes it is nice to have a different opinion on things. Advice from a male point of view is just what a girl needs at times to keep her grounded. He cares for me and genuinely wants the best for me because he is that great of a friend.

4. He's not afraid to tell it like it is.

He is always looking out for my best interest and reminding me of my great potential. If he doesn't think a guy is right for me or has wrong intentions, he lets me know. He also reminds me when I am being a little too mean or overthinking a situation.

5. No matter how much food I eat in front of him, there is no judgment.


Want to get ice cream for the fourth time this week? Sure! Whether it be cake, ice cream, or pizza, you'll find us eating one of them. I can stuff my face and not have a care in the world. Late night drives to 7/11 for snacks is what we do best. Food is the key to friendship and the answer to life.

6. He is always a phone call/Facetime/text message away.

I know I can always count on him to be there for me no matter what time of day it is. Whether it be making silly faces on Facetime, or just texting funny pictures back and forth, it always makes me smile.

7. We take the best selfies.


I can't even count how many pictures we have together at this point. Although some of them are quite embarrassing, they hold great memories. Every day is a new adventure that has to be captured.

8. No matter what comes between us, I know we will always be there for each other.


And that is all I could ever hope for in a friendship. Thank you for everything that you do for me, and thank you for playing such an important role in my life. Love you!

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.
