Sex Isn't Love

Now, love is so hard to find.

Sex Isn't Love
Arnel Hasanovic

I don't know where we got it twisted. Sex means nothing in a relationship, you can have the best sex ever but still have a failing relationship. Sex is physical, its basic human excitement and human excitement fades after time. You become bored with that person so you break it off and find someone new that excites you, only to have the cycle repeat. Love or I should say "real love" whatever it is, is on a different level, it doesn't fade. It goes on endlessly.

I guess at one time sex was an extension of love, but in our new culture of Netflix and chilling it's not anymore. Now we're just trying to bang certain people and wear it like a badge when we do as if we're cooler than everyone else now. Yeah, you're cool, you've added another body to your body count. Now, what is that going to do for you besides give you a stupid little ego boost? Personally, I think it does nothing. There comes a point where the amount of people you've had sex with won't matter.

I get having fun and all, but its gotten to the point where girls think they have to give their bodies to guys in order to get and keep them. Guys think girls have to give their bodies to them and when girls don't they get all butt hurt. Guess what buddy, you're not a king like you think you are so calm down. She is not entitled to give you anything. Take your precious little ego down and stop being a little bitch. Girls, you're not going to find love by giving up your body. You give your body to a guy and all you're going to get in return is nothing. The ride will be nice for a while, maybe it'll be so nice that you'll marry him, and when that ride comes to an end you'll realize just how worthless it all was.

We've lost touch with what it means to be with one person and only one person. What we call love today is mostly lust and lust never lasts. As soon as that excitement ends, you realize that person for who they really are. I can't look around at my peers to find a clue on how to find "real love" if there is such a thing. The only people I can trust to find some kind of clue is with my parents and their parents, the couples of older generations. If I can just find a sliver of this so-called real love I'll be happy because that means I found something that very few have found with a great girl.

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.
