10 Struggles Of Talking To Someone With A Busy Schedule

I am sure we can all relate to talking to someone who is constantly busy. This has been me this summer. We can all relate to wondering why or if they even enjoy our company. Well, dating or trying to talk to someone who is always on the run can be a challenge.

1. They suck at texting.

They either answer after five seconds or five hours. Just depends on what you are doing at the time. And if they are at work, you will not be hearing from them for quite some time.

2. They schedule tentative plans.

They never know what time they will be out of work and that determines if you have plans or not.

3. They are always at work.

"What are you doing tonight?" "Working."

4. They choose sleep over partying.

Better to wake up refreshed than with a hangover.

5. They choose to be with real friends doing things you actually enjoy, not doing things because you can.

Not that they don't enjoy you, you're just a gamble.. will it be fun? Will it not be fun?

6. The best way to communicate with them is by phone call.

They always hear your phone ring, but if it is a phone call, they are more likely to answer.

7. You tend to be lame.

Plans sound fun after work so they make them......and not so fun once they're actually out of work.

8. They don't have time for games.

They like to know what is going on and plan ahead. With busy schedules, it is hard to fit everything in.

9. A date to them is coming over really late and sleeping because this is all you have time for.

Let's be real, nap dates are the best.

10. It's too late to go out.

When you can go out, it is at 11:30pm on a good day and more than likely always miss the good bar times.

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.
