This Rom Com Matches Your Personality Type

The world of rom coms and chick flicks is undoubtedly a guilty pleasure for the large majority of the general population (I'm lookin' at you). The success of the genre which emerged as early as 1590 on the Shakespearean stage is no big surprise, as films of the type play to the lighter and more relaxed emotions of individuals. Unfortunately, many character traits associated with those who love a good chick flick aren't so flattering. "Girliness" stigma against rom coms as well as weak-mindedness and complacency have discouraged many a viewer from openly and publicly embracing their penchants towards the genre. Turns out, the appeal of the chick flick world is not limited to any specific personality. Here are 16 flicks that match with 16 different personalities, courtesy of Myers-Briggs (find out your Myers-Briggs personality type here):

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.
