4 Struggles And Successes Of Pursuing The Independent Girl
thought catalog

Ever since I was little, I've been extremely independent. I'm pretty sure it comes from the fact that I am so happy and I never wanted to talk to other people about the struggles I was going through, so I just kind of had to rely on myself to get through hard times. I know it must be difficult to pursue an independent girl, but she's 100% worth it.

1. She would love it you could be there to comfort her, but if you can't, she'll be fine anyway.

I also somewhat have a tendency of dating guys who put me to the back burner, so this was a helpful skill. There were times when I really needed someone there to just hug me, without saying any words, but I didn't have anyone and it was okay. I was okay.

2. She wants you, but she doesn't need you.

This can be really hard for other people to understand, but it's how a lot of us feel. I know that I would love having someone to share my stories, secrets, and struggles with, but I don't need someone there. It's up to you to understand that she doesn't mean to push you away sometimes, but she's used to being on her own.

3. If something is going on, don't get mad at her for taking forever to tell you.

Okay so this is probably one of my biggest issues. I keep things inside much longer than I should, without telling anyone that something is wrong. I've spent half of my life not having someone to share my struggles with, so I had to figure out my own way to cope.

4. It'll take her a while to open up completely to you, but once she does you know she totally trusts you.

It might take her several months to finally tell you about how awful her ex-boyfriend was to her, but once she tells you about that one awful situation, she'll tell you anything.

She's loyal, trustworthy, and will always have your back. It will take her a while to warm up to you, but once she does you'll see just how strong she is.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
