We claim all guys are the same and that they're all jerks, and yet we find ourselves running back to the same types of men over and over even after several bad experiences. And don't worry, it happens to the best of us. Okay, so maybe not "all" guys are the same... But there's definitely several types of guys that can almost always guarantee trouble. No matter how hard you try to change them, it usually only gets worse. So, I'd just avoid these types of men all together.

1. The Flake

This is the guy who hits you with that "When we gonna hangout?" text after having your plans fall through like a million times. He either sucks at planning or basically just always has an excuse on why he can't make it after you set up a date. Unless his grandmother had a heart attack or there's an army of tigers surrounding his house, the rule of thumb is if he flakes once without any sympathy, drop him.

2. The one who has a girlfriend but "it's complicated"

First of all, I can guarantee they aren't "fighting", they aren't "on a break" or it isn't "complicated." Second of all, even if they are, if he didn't have intentions of fixing things with her he would have ended things for good. So basically either he's a cheater who can't keep it in his pants after his girl fell asleep, or he's someone looking for a hall pass to hump and dump while him and his lady are going through a rough patch.

3. The Jealous Freak

It's always the guy who claims he doesn't want anything serious and that he isn't looking for a relationship that freaks out if you are mildly interested in anyone else. He looks over your shoulder when you send texts and asks you why your shorts are so short when he's not there.

4. The Broke Kid

He always wants to hang out just to "chill" at his place but doesn't have a car to come pick you up or even 5 bucks to get you an Uber home. He's good looking and cool but you can never actually go to a movie or to grab a bite to eat unless you make it clear you're the one treating. Not cool.

5. The Gym Obsessor

This guy sucks, because you feel awful getting annoyed that he's always busy at the gym. But seriously, who goes to the gym every day for 4 hours at a time and only drinks protein shakes? If sports and the gym are his whole life, that's fine. He just doesn't have time for you, and he probably won't make any.

6. The Depth Lacker

You're always the one doing all the talking, it seems like you've told him every thing there is to know about you but you don't even know where he's from. He's cute but so boring and you really know nothing about him because he doesn't even bother to participate in even a minimal amount of small talk. You can't force him to be interesting.

7. The One Who Hits On Your Friends


You send him a selfie with one of your friends and he jokingly responds "threesome?" Nice try buddy. Any guy who notices how hot your friends, sister, mom etc. are is probably just a sexually frustrated weirdo who obviously doesn't know how to flirt with a girl without coming off as a creep. No thanks.

8. The Drunk Texter


He only hits you up on the weekends after getting home from a party or the bars. He texts you "wyd?" at 1 AM and you're just like, "Hate to break it to ya but... Not you." These guys will do anything to try to get you to come over, but wether or not they "will send someone to get you" or claim they "just wanna hangout", don't go. It's always a trap.

9. The Incognito Lover


This is the guy you've been seeing for a while but you've never hung out in public and it's always one on one. It's awkward if you see him in person by chance because he never says hi or acknowledges you. Then claims he didn't see you when you ask him why he blew you off. He's embarrassed of you and isn't worth it.

10. The Rebounder

This may be the absolute worst type of guy because he just got out of a relationship and is obviously either completely heartbroken or claims he is still "good friends" with his ex. This guy recently had a girlfriend and misses the feeling of being loved so will go out of his way to court you, flirt with you and constantly message you just to try and mimic the feelings he had for his ex. News Flash! Him and his ex broke up for a reason and if he moved onto you so quick he didn't take time to better himself, odds are you'll fall into the exact same trap.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
