6 Ways All Lifetime Movies Are Exactly The Same

Spoiler alert: someone is going to die.

6 Ways All Lifetime Movies Are Exactly The Same

As much as I hate to admit it, Lifetime movies have become a guilty pleasure of mine. Something about them is simply addicting. The more that I watch them, though, the more I realize that all Lifetime movies have quite a lot in common. It really is true, and here is why that is the case:

1. At least one person dies

Lifetime probably has a rule that someone has to die (more specifically, get murdered) in every one of their movies.

2. The flow of the plot is not much different from other Lifetime plots you've watched in the past.

It's a common belief that if you've seen one, you've seen them all. You know when and where the "surprises" will happen.

3. You know it's not that good but you can't stop watching.

It might be slow at times and you might think you have it all figured out, but something about it keeps you glued.

4. Someone who seems normal in the beginning ends up being absolutely insane

Don't be surprised- the kind, attractive, and charming individual you see at the start isn't so perfect after all.

5. Everything goes crazy in the last ten minutes

It seems like the movie is coming to a close. You think you know how it's going to end, but don't be so sure. There's almost always a plot twist right at the end.

6. The happy ending is hardly as perfect as it might initially seem

It might appear to be the ideal happy ending, but that is not always the case. Lifetime often pulls it's classic move: at the last second of the movie, the camera pans out and you see that the threat of danger is still there after all.

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.
