Something Is Missing

They say that there are a lot of fish in the sea, but what if you're lost in the midst of them?

Since I have moved to Orlando I have been having the time of my life, but the one thing that is missing is someone special to share it with. I know it sounds cheesy, but I am hoping to find a girl on my Disney College Program that wants to visit the parks with my childish self and nerd out with me over comic book TV shows like "The Flash" and "Supergirl." It's been a while since I dated and that was for my own personal reasons.

I think that now is the right time to put myself back out there and give it a shot once again. No guy or girl likes the feeling of rejection and that is why, for the most part, people stay single. It's because they are afraid of taking a chance or a leap for that person they are interested in. They live in constant fear of rejection and no one should live that way. What I have learned throughout my previous relationships is that your happiness is the key to a successful relationship.

During my last relationship, the further and further and further it went on, the more I realized that I was unhappy. I was blinded by the fact that I didn't recognize that I was unhappy and I suppressed it for so long. My suppressed unhappiness finally got the better of me and I finally expressed my true feelings. If you are ever in a relationship and it is making you unhappy, please step back and reevaluate the relationship.

Your happiness and their happiness is key for a healthy relationship. You both want to be happy and it's hard to please two parties, but it can be managed. Over the last few years since my last relationship, I thought about working on my self-esteem and preparing myself for the next girl to walk into my life. Coming back from an unhealthy and unhappy relationship is very difficult and can really take a toll on you. The more you stick with it and try to bounce back, I noticed I was much happier and ready to move forward.

I feel like Dr. Phil giving relationship advice, but the real kicker is my relationships haven't been successful. I have taken my failures and used them as learning lessons so I don't make the same mistake again in the future. It's great to be mindful of things that ended a relationship so that you don't end a relationship that could possibly end up with a bright future ahead of it. People set too high of standards for relationships and also for those that they find "attractive" just on the basis of looks and physicality. "Looks" don't last forever, but a relationship does. Look for someone that you make a connection with and want to spend every waking moment with having fun and creating memories.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
