Why Long Distance Relationships Aren't So Bad

I know what you're thinking; YIKES! Why would I wanna date someone thats in a different state, country or just far away. Well from someone who has been doing it for a year today, it really isn't that bad and ill tell you why!

1. We have our own lives


He is a D1 Athlete who plays Golf and is always busy and honestly never around to hang out. I'm in a sorority (Razzle Dazzle Dalpha), so we are both really busy. He has his golf team and his friends and I have mine. We live our two separate lives and then we come together to combine them. He meets my friends and sisters and I hang out with his Golf Team at University of Virginia (go Hoos; sorta). It honestly works out for the best because we cannot get caught up in each other in our free time and branch out!

2. Trust is strong


What's a relationship with out trust? We trust each other more than anybody else. I know what you're thinking; "I would never know/he would never know." Thats not the point because we would never do it.

3. Yes I do miss him

I personally think being in a long distance relationship requires less emotion but yes of course I miss him sometimes. We miss each other but not enough to do anything irrational.

4. Seeing eachother is awesome


Its kind of like when you come home and you're dog is all happy to see you. Minus the barking, we don't bark at each other.

5. Conversations are wonderful

Since we are far, we find so many thinks to talk about and really its lovely. Talking builds a relationship and makes it so strong. Knowing a lot of things about you're signficant other makes it more special

6. Moments are so special

We really appreciate seeing each other and the moments we have because we may not get another one for a month or two. We savor it; Its good; it works for us.

7. Love, is Love, is Love, is Love and you can't find one like ours.

Its pretty strong so stop questioning our decisions.

Happy Anniversary Daniel

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.
