The "Right Reasons" To Go On The Bachelor

It's not just for love.

The "Right Reasons" To Go On The Bachelor
facebook.com

On every season of The Bachelor or The Bachelorette, a contestant approaches the lead, and tells them that another contestant is not there "for the right reasons". This means that that contestant may not be there to fall in love with the lead. This statement is insane for a just few reasons, so if you're planning to go onto one of these shows, don't be that contestant.

It's not normal to enter into a relationship with someone who is dating about 24 other people at the same time, and expect to immediately fall in love with them. What is normal is to go on this show expecting to have a new experience; maybe to travel, maybe to make some friends, maybe to promote yourself or your business, or maybe to fall in love. Being open to anything is the right reason to go one of these shows and as a contestant, you should be open to all of it.

Don't be the contestant that wastes their limited amount of time with the lead talking about other people. If something really does concern you, just wait it out. Often, the person who says something to the lead ends up shooting themselves in the foot. Personally, I would only say something if we were down to the final few contestants and someone who truly concerned me was still there. Even then I would only talk about it if my foundation with the lead was solid and if they asked me to say something.

I know that feuds amongst the contestants are often drawn out in order to entertain the viewers, so if you want to be that contestant who is known as the "Right Reasons Police", just know that you're probably going to end up in at least a few memes.

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.
