Why Chandler Bing Is The Guy You Should Marry And I Couldn't BE Any More Sure

You'll be laughing your whole life, which is all you can really ask for

Chandler Bing is the funny guy. He's the guy you want to hang out with, who cracks jokes all of the time, who is terrible at landing dates with the ladies, who has a stable job but hates his job, and who is always down to hang with his Friends. Chandler is the guy that at the beginning of Friends you think will be a bachelor forever. He's sarcastic, cynical, calls his friends out on every weird or little quirk they have and cracks jokes even when no one else wants to be laughing. He's the guy with commitment issues and if you're new to the show, he's the guy that you can probably relate to dating a few times in your life. The guy you like or think you had a great time with on a date, but he's probably knit-picking every little detail about you apart to his friends. That being said, however, Chandler Bing is the guy you should marry.

Chandler is hilarious. And although I can quote Joey (spoiler alert that has nothing to do with the show) when he finds out his little sister is pregnant and says, "Dina, if he's funny, LAUGH.", the reason you end up marrying Chandler and all of his wit is because everyone needs someone who will make a stupid joke in their life. Everyone needs someone who will cut the tension and it's even better when the person you fall in love with and end up marrying is the person who knows when to crack a joke to make your day a little bit better. Chandler will make you smile. He's self-deprecating and is always willing to make you smile at his expense, and he's a king of the stupid dad jokes. And honestly, what good is the guys you marry is he's not good with the dad jokes?

Chandler is successful. He might not always love the career he's chosen, but he knows how to make a living and keep an income. He's the type of guy who talks badly about his job all of the time but is really good at it and therefore has made a really good living because of it. He's not going to spend a ton of money on something irresponsible, but he's also not going to flaunt what he has. He's the type of guy who can afford to take you out to dinner, and would love to do so, and he also won't ever throw in your face that he's got a lot of money. He's stable and that's all we can really ask for.

Chandler is loyal and a great friend. He's there for the people who matter to him and that's the best quality a husband could have. He goes to bat for his friends and he'll always be there to pick them up when they need it. He lends a hand and quite a few dollars throughout the show to his best friends and rarely asks for anything in return. He's devoted to being there for the people that matter to him and he's not afraid to apologize or make something up to those he loves when he falls short. He's even willing to sit in a box for an entire day to show just how much his best friend means to him and if that's not loyalty, I'm not sure what is.

Chandler is the guy you marry. Once you get past the commitment-issue stage, Chandler is the perfect guy. He's funny, loyal, handsome, smart, well-educated, successful and just a good guy. He might make a joke at the wrong time or make a few mistakes along the way, but at the end of the day, he's the guy you want to settle down with and start a life with.

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.
