If You're Questioning Your Relationship, You Already Know The Answer
New Girl

If you're having recurring doubts, it's time to sit back and read into it. No, don't overthink it. That's something I'd definitely do, so easier said than done, but just take a deep breath and if you feel that one tiny squeak deep down in your body that says something is off, then something is off.

It's not your period. It's not the stress from school. It's not what anybody says. It's your gut telling you something.

If there was a second that you were worried if he loves you or not, then you're not feeling it. There is no need to backtrack and think when this itsy bitsy hunch came about. It doesn't matter what happened. It doesn't matter how stupid or insignificant. If you're questioning something, then you've got some trouble.

I don't want to hear about a pros and cons list.

Love doesn't work like that. And if it did, that would suck, the romance would be buried in a dark hole and never seen again.

But, I get it. Deciding is the worst part. Making decisions that will personally impact you and your world, isn't a piece of cake. I'm not going to stand here and tell you that it's one, two, three—easy peasy. But, don't be afraid of this step.

It doesn't matter if you've been together for three months, one year, or five. If you think, "Oh! Maybe it'll get better, I just have to give it some time." No! You don't have time to waste. There will never be a good time to say goodbye, but you have no reason to be scared of being alone. You'll always have yourself and you're more than enough.

Do I believe in giving people chances? Duh. Do I believe that, in general, our generation has a fear of commitment (count me in, as well!) and that we are too brusk with swiping from one person to another? Yup. But, if you're with someone and you've been walking around with this blah sense inside of you, you don't have to ask yourself if this is a good relationship. You already know it isn't. You're not happy and it's time to find you a big bucket of glee.

You can't run away from your heart telling you something isn't right. And, if you try, it will only burn hotter later on.

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.
