Dear Fortnite,

I am not a huge video game fan now, and I have never been. I get a headache staring at the tv for hours, and I would just rather be outside. Even though they aren't my thing, I have never had a problem with video games.

Until you came out.

I'm definitely not one of those girlfriends who has to be up her boyfriend's butt. We have a lot in common, but we are also very different, and I am glad he has interests he enjoys to keep him occupied.

However, I would like to have my boyfriend back if you don't mind. We no longer watch Netflix movies at night because we are watching him play you. He takes an hour to text me back because "Sorry babe I was playing my game." He gets sidetracked on the phone because "Dang it, he shot me!" (He screams this as I am talking about something completely different.) His Snapchats include pictures of the controller or the TV. The lingo of the game has become a part of everyday conversation.

I literally can hum the theme song and I have never even played.

I'm definitely not saying he needs to stop playing... but could you maybe crash for a day?

Or just like come out with an update no one likes?

Or maybe make it so easy that he gets bored?

Or so hard that he can't win? I don't know what it will take. It would just be really great if I could have his attention back for just a short while.

I don't get what's so great about you, but if you don't give him back soon, I guess I am going to have to break down and try you out. And I would just rather not.

Frustrated,

The bored girlfriend

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
