Let People Decide How They Want Tinder To Work For Them Even If You’re JUST looking for friends

What used to be the hottest hook-up app is now your favorite friend zone!

I know we have all came across those one...or two bios that yell “I don't want to get together and make-out! Stay away horny feens!"

Sadly, that's exactly what the rest of us are looking for.

In the age of computers and smart phones, how is that these people expect us to find people who we have things in common with through casual conversations in person?!? Especially when everyone is always looking at their phones anyways!

Tinder can be whatever you want it to be.

But what do we have Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and Pinterest for? I mean, Facebook is obviously censored for what we WANT our family to see, leaving every other platform for the wilder side of things, including our friends! With that being said, why take another platform and dedicate it to selfies and best friend anniversaries? It's evident that's that many people would rather keep their relationships as far from likes and comments as possible.

So where does one have room to really be intimate?

I would expect many people to claim that Tumblr is a space for the wilder side of life and intimacy, and I would not disagree with them! The only thing that Tumblr doesn't allow us to do is swipe left when one of your followers just isn't up to par with our standards. Plus, we all know there is nothing better than that feeling you have you come across the right person, and have one super like ready to show them just how thirsty you are are!

All in all, can we all agree that Tinder should AGAIN be dedicated to hot make out sessions and late night hook-ups?

Those of you who wish to have nothing to do with the large majority of us can stick around, but don't make us feel like Tinder “isn't they place for this." For those of you questioning why married couples are on Tinder, they too are just looking for a chance to reclaim the fun of life's of life while spicing things up a bit!

“Never yuck anyone's yum," as they say!

And always be open-minded to the experiences of others! It is a lot easier to create your desired experience on other platforms, but remember that Tinder is limited to age and how close someone is to you. Many of us know what it's like to swipe left until there's no one left to swipe!

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.

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.
