Relationship Goals?

Relationship Goals?

My roommate and I love to do this thing where we find the most ridiculous tweets possible and send them to one another when we can't sleep. Usually these tweets end up being some kind of ~relationship goals~ account because:

1. Ridiculous

2. SO FREAKING MANY

So, now, because my roommate is going to bed and I still can't sleep, I will be sharing these ridiculous tweets (and of course my rants) with all of you dear readers.


Wow. OK then. This is honestly just shocking. What's even more shocking than this aggressive tweet is the fact that two thousand people retweeted it and three thousand liked it! I'm sorry, but I don't know if I even feel comfortable living in a world where people would rather "break ya neck" than a break. Perhaps the next time I'm lamenting about being single I'll keep in mind that I should be thankful no one is trying to KILL ME for "wasting their time"




As someone who (embarrassingly) watched all of "One Tree Hill," I would just like to point out that this is TELEVISION SHOW people. And a completely unrealistic one at that! (seriously "One Tree Hill"? Why so many kidnappings in one town?) I mean, I guess if you want to base your relationship goals off of a couple who got married in literal high school it's you decision, but I don't know how many boys you're going to find that are put a ring on it at 17.



Alright, first of all, if we are going on a trip I most certainly will not be sitting on your lap at the airport. Just no. Additionally, I don't really think I need to be twinning with my man. No thanks. And finally, who are y'all planning on dating?! Bill Gates?! Girls in high school and college will retweet this and I'm like...yo I can barely afford to do my laundry and you want someone to take you on a trip like this? I mean, shoot, if you find a man like that give him my number.



To be honest, if a boy was staring at me all love sick all the time, I'd be creeped out and tell him to look somewhere else. Also, fairly unrealistic to find someone that will just follow you around all day gazing lovingly into your eyes because you're the "prettiest angel he's ever seen."



Maybe I'm just an aggressive love hater, and while this is an incredibly kind thing to say to someone, I don't know that I'd love it all over social media. Also, does this mean all girls are expecting this from boys when they're dating...?? Because that's some pretty high expectations! I'd say that most people aren't going to post a short chapter book about their love for you, so girls shouldn't be making that "beyond goals."



I don't know about you, but typically when someone tells me goodbye I respond with "goodbye." What's the alternative....? Beg them not to leave? I feel like posts like this are the reasons that (dumb) people say women are crazy. Cause tbh it is a little crazy to be sad about someone saying goodbye...


Alright, rant over. Thanks for sticking with me through all these. And if I ever, for any reason, begin to retweet things like this please slap some sense into me.

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.
