This is not a hate letter from fragile girls who have recently been screwed over. This is an attempt at reasoning why women are ready to mature and move on without you.

Listen up boys, the women have outgrown you. It's time to find a real man.

If you want to play games, your girl doesn't want to be part of them anymore. They were fun for a while, but now she doesn't have time for people playing hard-to-get. She's getting bored with the stagnancy. If you want to play games, you do you, but you're just proving that you're still a boy.

It's all good to have a casual relationship between a woman and a man. To each his/her own, we're all adults. But as soon as you shy away from a woman asking uncomfortable questions because you don't want to deal with the emotions involved with your response, you look immature in her eyes. She's probably not alluding to dropping down on one knee if she opens up to you on her feelings for you.

She's just trying to see what you're feeling, too. So at least have the decency to give her a response. If you're scared that she might become upset if you don't feel the same way, let me tell you: nothing's worse than a woman left in a cliffhanger.

So boys, learn to own up to your feelings and actions.

I am willing to admit girls are bad at making decisions, but hey, we're learning. By the same token, boys need to confront their emotions. Make it easy on your girl by telling her what you're thinking and feeling, so she can finalize her thoughts and feelings too. Be honest so she can come to terms with the situation.

If you're too scared to tell me up front, you're wasting her time and you need to grow up.

Maybe you're scared of a girl who has an idea of what she wants in her future that is too serious for you or scared that you could potentially have to make some changes in your life. Either way, if you're not ready to face those fears, all I can say is good luck.

Maybe at one point, you found a girl that was also naive and you could keep avoiding your fears. But that won't last forever. Eventually, she's going to want to move on.

I'm done with the love games. I'm done with those who never left box they grew up in.

I'm ready for the future, and boys, you're a thing of the past.

I need someone with an open mind.

I need a man.

P.S. from the masses: If you think you're better off with someone else, avoid moving onto someone in the same circle--it just looks sloppy. And if you absolutely can't avoiding doing that, you better damn well grow up and treat her like the queen she deserves to be.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
