I often see posts about things men don't do enough. More often than not, I see complaints by women on my news feed or in my friend group about what "he didn't do" and where "he didn't take her," and what "he failed to remember." I'm not saying the men are blameless, ladies, but let's try a little harder to remember the good things they do too and show them the same love they give us, unconditionally.

Here are 13 small ways we can show our men love... because a little goes a long way:

1. Ask about his day

Sometimes, he needs to vent just like you, or maybe he needs to work through his next move.

2. Keep up with his friends

Yes, even the ones you don't particularly care for. Make a point to plan as many hang outs for the two of you with his friends as you plan for the two of you with your own friends.

3. Make him a playlist

Make him his very own playlist on your phone with the songs he loves. The fact that you took the time and paid attention to his music tastes will really mean the world to him.

4. Rub his back

I'm as guilty as they come when demanding back rubs. They're an intimate, wonderful experience, and odds are your man might like one every now and again as well.

5. Buy him dinner

The two of you may already split meals or buy for each other, but if he's the type that always buys your food, maybe offer to get the tab the next time you go out.

6. Bring his favorite snack or beer home

It could be as simple as a $1 candy bar or a four pack of beer. Make his day with a simple gesture.

7. Tell him what you love about him

I know, I always need reassurance, and It's always nice to receive it from him. Return the favor next time he's had a bad day.

8. Tell him he looks nice

They like it just as much as we do, ladies. Be honest with him, and tell him if you like what he's wearing.

9. Offer to help him with chores

Maybe he needs to change his oil or fold some clothes. Offer to hand him the wrench or pair up his socks.

10. Write him notes

Write him goofy messages, inside jokes, or even love letters, and leave them where he'll find them later. I promise, you'll make him smile.

11. Cook his favorite meal

Maybe you don't cook, but fresh baked pizza rolls are just as sweet as a fresh baked ziti.

12. Watch that football game without complaint

Or soccer, or baseball, or basketball, whatever his sport of choice is.

13. Take interest in something he loves

Whether its fishing, video games, or cars, try to learn a fact or two, and join in.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
