Why You Should Date The Guy That Has Always Been There For You

He is not a guy that only has one goal, like a lot of the guys you hear about today.

Why You Should Date The Guy That Has Always Been There For You

I constantly have girls tell me, “I just want a guy who will care for me,” after they have been hurt, once again, from a guy who they thought was genuine. Well, you may not even see it, but the guy you have been looking for all along could be sitting right in front of you.

Just for clarification, this doesn’t include a guy who may be stalking you. That isn’t normal. You should probably call the police on him.

There is no doubt in my mind that every girl has had a guy friend that has been there to support her in their lowest moments. Whether it be a parents' divorce, a break up or a struggle in school, his shoulder is open 24/7 for you to cry on.

He has been the most reliable person in your life for a long time. When you call at 3 a.m. you don’t have to question whether or not he is coming over to your apartment because he "can’t even” either and he agrees that “she had no right to call you that at your chapter meeting.” Why would you not want to be with someone who you can rely on when you get older no matter what?

His friends may call him “whipped” or “hooked,” but what it should be called is compassion. He is not a guy that only has one goal, like a lot of the guys you hear about today. In our society we have moved from an idea of humility to an idea of treating people as another object. It's time to realize that the guy who is always there for you, your best friend, could care less about trying to sleep with you. He loves deeply and wants to give that same compassion and love to you because you deserve every bit of it.

We understand that you have gone through a lot in the past because we've been by your side through it all. No matter what may happen in the future, we will still be understanding. We want to be the one to support you when you need it the most because that has been our goal all along.

With this being said, if you confront us about it, we may put up a front and deny it because we think we are told to be tough, but I guarantee you that as soon as you are out of sight we will be smiling from ear to ear. This moment is one that we have been waiting for. We even wish that it would’ve happened earlier.

If you are reading this at a moment in your life where you feel like you've lost hope in all guys, or that there isn't a genuine guy out there and you don’t know what to do, try calling the guy who has always been there for you. Call the one that you know will support you in this moment because I will bet that he will be there for a long time to come.

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.
