7 Qualities I Look For In A Significant Other
Eric James

1. Great Personality

This is such an important quality in a significant other. I desire to be with someone who has the whole package when it comes to their personality. They should be kind, compassionate, big hearted, loving, passionate, adventurous, just to name a few. This wins me over more than anything.

2. Ambitious

There is seriously nothing more attractive than someone who has a plan for their life. I want to be with someone who has goals and is working towards making that happen. This person should want to better themselves by growing as they are striving to reach their life goals.

3. Humorous

I am a person who loves to laugh and enjoy life. I want to be with someone who can laugh at themselves and bring light into our relationship. Life would be boring if we took it too seriously all the time

4. Enjoys the Little Things

I am a person who enjoys those small acts of kindness. I enjoy those special little moments that we get with each other that don't seem like much but they mean everything. I treasure every little thing.

5. Loves to Cuddle and Hug

I am a very affectionate person who likes to show that through hugs, cuddles, holding hands, kisses, etc. It is my love language and I love to share that with my significant other.

6. Pick Me Up When I'm Down

Life is going to have it's low moments where I am going to need someone to be there for me. I need someone to just hold me and tell me that everything is going to be OK when I begin to feel defeated by something.

7. Gives Energy Back

I am someone who loves with a very big heart. I go all in in my relationships and I expect the person to reciprocate that back to me. I need to be with someone who gives me the same amount of time and energy that i give them.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
