Why Do We Try To Let The Way Guys Treat Us Define Us?

If one guy won't appreciate the way you are, someone else will.

Why Do We Try To Let The Way Guys Treat Us Define Us?

Why is it that when a guy treats me like crap I think I'm a piece of crap? Why do I try to let their opinion of me define who I am? I can go above and beyond for someone, but they still sit here and let me wonder if I'm good enough and wonder if something is actually wrong with me because this happens every time. I never feel like I'm good enough.

Why is it such a big deal for girls to have to tip toe through everything because we don't want boys thinking we're too this and too that? I don't know about anyone else, but I'm a very vocal person that likes to talk about how I feel about a situation, and if you feel a certain way about me, then I think you should be honest with me just like I'll be honest with you. But instead of talking things out, I have to tip toe around the subjects because talking stuff out especially right at the beginning of the "talking" stage just isn't "normal."

Since when has not being normal been a bad thing? Has it not been a thing for years now to be original? I'm tired of guys barely answering the questions that we ask them but if we don't answer something the exact way they want it's like the world is ending. I'm just saying we need more verbal communication rather than subtweeting each other and posting pictures with captions like "I wish this is how my relationship would be." Communication is key in any type of relationship you have in your life. And just know that if One guy doesn't appericate you for who you are then just know someone else will. Youll be able to find someone way better.

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.
