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.

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.
