No relationship is always perfect, but it can still be really great with these 11 tips!

1. Listen

When you listen to each other it leads to a better conversation which only leads to a deeper connection.

2. You do not have to spend all your time together

Giphy

You can have time apart. Time to hangout with your own friends. Just because you are together it does not have to be together 24/7.

3. Get over the want of always being right

Because sadly, you are not always right.

4. Love yourself

Self love is the best love!

5. Complements are great

Giphy

A simple complement can go a long way into making someone's day a whole lot better.

6. Connect with your partner's friends and family

When you establish a good connection with your partner's friends and family, it really makes the world go round.

7. Be mindful

If they had a bad day, let them have the T.V remote or choose the music in the car.

8. Let it go

Do not bring up things that happened in the past.

9. Make plans to do things together

Not every Friday has to be a date night, but it is nice to go out and do something together.

10. Unplug

Your phone is great, but the conversation you are missing out on is even better. You can put your phone away for a bit and enjoy your time with your partner.

11. You do not have to always win

No one wants to play Mario Kart or chess with someone who always beats them. They also do not want to play with a sore loser.

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.

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.
