Developing A Crush, As Told By New Girl

....and I've got way too may feels....

Developing A Crush, As Told By New Girl
Buzzfeed

Sometimes I hate being a human 'cause we have these stupid things called emotions and these stupid things called feelings that we end up catching when we meet really great people and it's just all around stupid.

But sometimes it's great, right?

There's the first attraction...

You see them, they see you, and it's all just a spark of rainbows and butterflies.

You guys hit it off and it's super amazing...

Like seriously, you have so much in common and you could talk about the same stupid crap for hours.

But then, after catching yourself Instagram stalking them for 43 minutes, it hits you.

You've caught the feels...

You've got a crush.

And you've got it hard.

Oh yeah, I went there.

You can deny it all you want...

"I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about this is obviously just nonsense or some stupid emotions trying to get in my head."

Or try to hide from it.

I've heard pillow forts are a great way to distract yourself from your "not crush."

But it's not going away...

No matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to shake the butterflies you get when you think about this significant other, and it's annoying because it's distracting you from every day life. So naturally, you just try to pretend it's not there. You even try to hide it from your friends, but they know your game.

There's no hiding it now.

Let's just hope that they fully support your new crush or else you're in for a three hour montage of why you need to get over this ASAP.

You don't even know what to feel about this person and it's completely throwing your whole system off.

Probably due to the fact that you barely even know them yet.

So naturally, this uncertainty absolutely freaks you the f*&* out.

Do I like them? Do I hate them? Why do I want to talk to them right now?! AHHH.

Whenever you see them, you try to act super nonchalant.

Which never works.

"OH WOW GOSH HI I DIDN'T EVEN SEE YOU THERE EVEN THOUGH I DEFINITELY 100% SAW YOU THERE"

And you probably say something totally embarrassing...

Which makes you want to hide in your pillow fort forever and ever.

Cause playing it cool is definitely not your thing.

Maybe they're into quirky weirdness? *fingers crossed*

Whenever you actually do have a successful interaction, you feel really great about yourself.

Which also makes you kind of excited.

*proceeds to do happy dance*

Crushes can be fun!

Maybe it will lead into something meaningful, which will make all the anxiety 100% worth while! .... kind of.

And if it doesn't work out and you remain a train wreck, just shake it off,

embrace the power of being a happy single individual,

and keep on doin' 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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
