You hear about it all the time but the question is why do it? Why cheat? Why would you want to trade Chanel for Walmart? Because they're unsatisfied with what they have sexually and emotionally. When in a relationship you're in it for the emotional support as well as sexual support. You're both happy because you have someone to satisfy your needs.

The thing is what happens when these needs are not satisfied? Cheating, it's as simple as that.

When someone is cheating in a relationship they're looking for something their partner is not providing them with whether it's sex or a shoulder to cry on. Sometimes people are not satisfied in the sheets and need to have someone else for that. Sometimes people find their partner is not as emotionally available as they thought and need someone to turn to for that support.

People look so negatively at cheating, yes it's wrong but the question is how wrong?

When in a relationship consider this, how can we fix this problem? What can we do to better what we have and grow? Consider talking about it cause the question that needs to be asked is why stay if you're unhappy with the person? Why lead them on and get too caught up in a relationship to where things end badly? Why would you want to hurt someone to where they have that scar on them forever?

It's because you don't want to lose the safety net. People want to stay so badly because it's safe. Because you know how they feel and know they have no intention of ending things. So you stay even unhappy because you find happiness in another embrace they make you feel alive.

Everyone wants to be comfortable and safe but still have a thrill.

Do you really need that thrill? Why not try to find that thrill in other ways? Surely you've heard of trying new things, and that's because it's true you try new things you find things you like. There are so many reasons to cheat and so many ways to fix your relationship before it goes downhill.

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.
