Six reasons why he's a keeper

#RelationshipGoals

So, for those of you that don't know, I adore my boyfriend. Although we drive each other crazy, we stick together through the ups and the downs and somehow make it all work out. It's rare to find someone that loves and accepts you unconditionally for who you are; so when you do find that person, don't let go!

Here are a few things that make a guy a keeper;

He listens to you

whether it's about the latest episode of your favorite girly Netflix drama, or why "so and so" is such a raging bitch, he's always there for a good venting session. That's not to say that it goes in one ear and out the other though-- when it comes to the important stuff he's even more attentive and interested in what you have to say. He wants to hear you out.

He isn't embarrassed by you

From silly nicknames for each other, your overwhelming selfie photo shoots everywhere you two go, painting your nails, having to deal with your extra emotional drunk or PMS-ing self, to the mushy lovey dovey posts you make about him, this guy will go through any form of public humiliation if he knows it makes you happy.

His family is the sh*t

This one here is definitely one of the most important ones on my list because after all, nobody wants to deal with a potential future monster-in-law. If you find a guy with a kickass fam, and they like you, then honey; you are golden.

He shows emotion

I think one of the sweetest things a guy can do is open up to you and show you his sensitive side! And let me assure you this, there is nothing more satisfying-- I mean, uh, touching, then seeing your man cry. A guy willing to pour his heart out to you is a guy worth having in your life; he really does care. Plus nobody wants some shallow macho douche anyways

He's got a killer personality

Wherever he goes, he's the life of the party. He's charming, funny, confident and damn is he sexy! He knows how to work a crowd and let's be honest, every guy wants to be him and every girl wants to be his (sorry ladies!). When he's not being a charmer at a social gathering, he's making your mom fall in love with him... But not even on purpose. He's the farthest thing from an ass kisser, he just has an infectious, loving, and welcoming personality that you can't help but be drawn to. Don't let him fool you though, he may be go-with-the-flow, but he's not afraid to stand up for himself or you for that matter– he doesn't take sh*t from anyone, and he tells it like it is.

He loves you even when you go bat sh*t crazy & you love him when he's a clueless idiot

"Who tf is this and why are you liking her picture" or the other fan favorites "Where is it? Who's there? When are you leaving? Why are you taking so long to respond?" Even though you have the most trustworthy, loyal, loving and amazing guy who's just as equally obsessed with you, you're a girl AKA you are most likely insane and will chew his head off for just about anything, but he loves you anyways. You gotta hand it to this guy for keeping his cool (most of the time!) and putting up with your bs on the reg. Sure he's made some dumb decisions that piss you off, but he would never do anything intentionally to hurt you, so try and cut him some slack.... but let him know who's boss when the times right. You both keep each other in check.

All in all, if you've found someone that you can be your complete and utterly weird and dysfunctional self with yet somehow at the end of the day want some "sexy time" then by George I think you've got it!

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.
