There are so many things that boys, especially boyfriends that just don't understand, do to make their girlfriends super upset. Sometimes, it doesn't make us mad, but it does make us sad. It does make us think that we are no longer their top priority. And maybe we still are, but it doesn't feel like it at the moment. Maybe they just have work to do, maybe they just want to play video games, maybe they just want to watch a show, but we tend to question: why can't they watch it with us? Why can't they let us join boy's night? Why can't they teach us to play video games? But boyfriends, just like girlfriends, do need their space.

1. They overplay video games, especially when they promised they will be with you in 10 minutes

You say one thing and then you do another. Stop having contradictions! Especially NOT with video games. See, I game, but I still say one thing and just stick with that one thing and keep my promises till the very end. I expect the same back, boys.

2. They are always on their phone

Seriously, what is so important on your phone that could possibly distract you from us? I am very needy and want cuddles all the time. You shouldn't be reading, gaming, or watching YouTube videos when you're with me.

3. They talk to girls in front of us

Who is that girl you were just talking to? That you were literally just flirting with? No, nah, don't brush it off and say she is just your friend. See, we don't believe that shit. There is no need for random girls to be talking to you, asking you about homework when she can just as easily ask anyone else. There is also no need for you to extend any conversation with her, even if she is the one that was initiating.

4. When they say they're too tired to meet up right now

We put up with your asses 24/7, especially when you want those extra cuddle moments. Why can't you put up with us when we need you right now? I don't care if we're giving you a headache, signing up to be my boyfriend means you have to put up with the extra baggage.

5. When they would rather hang with the boys than you

You wanna get together with the boys so that you can all talk shit about me, huh? Or talk about those girls that you think are hot and can never get? You think I don't know what you're doing? You think I'm super duper naive? Ha, then you don't know me.

6. Pressuring us when we are not in the mood

We want to be good girlfriends at your service, but some nights, it's just too stressful for us. We just wanna crash and head straight to bed without those heated cuddle sessions that will eventually lead to something else. We won't orgasm from anything you do if we're just not into it at the moment. Sorry, boys.

7. When they don't plan dates

We've run out of ideas by now. Surely you must have something you want to do that we haven't thought of yet. What? You just wanna sleep all day? You just wanna cuddle too? But what about our anniversary? Why can't we eat out or something? I wanna go out with you, I wanna take walks, I wanna look at the wilderness and talk about anything and everything. Boys, stop letting your dicks think for you. You still have an actual brain, you know?

8. When they stop cuddling us in the middle of the night and start facing the other way

Alas, the long nights of cuddle sessions. Personally, I get so sad when my boyfriend turns around in the middle of the night and stops holding me. When that happens, I usually take his arm and put it around me. That warmth is what us girls crave, boys! Start holding us and never let go.

9. When they have to win every single argument

No, this is not a competition. I'm talking about right and wrong here. Stop trying to compete with me, and let's just talk it out.

10. When they think it's so hard to keep us happy

All we need is a pile of "I love yous," cuddles, flowers, chocolates, taking us out, introducing us to your parents and friends, and buying us food. It really isn't that hard. At least, we don't think so.

We love our boyfriends, but sometimes they can be a bit difficult. We can't really get through to them, and we don't know if they're even listening to us. But what we do know is that we will never stop loving them for who they are.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
