Don't Be The Crazy Girlfriend

Love makes you do crazy things, but don't let it make you crazy-minded.

If you have been in a relationship before, this topic is probably nothing new to you. There will always be ups and downs with your significant other; they are simply unavoidable. However, how you handle the downs is crucial. I constantly see memes and posts that circulate the internet that talk about "crazy girlfriends". In case you don't know who falls in that category, here it is:

1. Women who dig through their significant other's text messages and social media to find out if they are cheating on them

Stop looking for trouble ladies! First, if you don't trust your significant other, leave. It is that simple. You can't be committed to someone if you don't trust them. Also, if they are cheating on you, their actions will show it.

2. Women who think using violence in an argument will help solve the problem

As cliche as this sounds, violence is never the answer; unless you are trying to defend yourself in a dangerous situation. This is where better communication needs to be demonstrated. The only way to resolve an argument is to talk it out, and if it comes to it, agree to disagree.

3. Women who blame the person that their significant other is talking to or cheating on them with, instead of blaming their significant other for their actions

It takes two to tango ladies. Chances are, that person does not know that you are his/her significant other. Therefore, that person may not realize that he/she is in a bad situation. However, even if that person does know, he/she should not be your main concern. Your main concern should be why your significant other was not being loyal to you. Bottom line, if your significant other cheats, the blame will always be on the significant other. He/she had a choice.

4. Women who restrict their significant other being friends with certain people

I will say this again: if you don't trust your significant other, leave. In reality, you have no right to determine who his/her friends are. With that being said, he/she doesn't have that right to do so to you as well.

5. Women who need to be with or keep up with their significant other 24/7

I don't know about all of you, but I don't have time to be around my significant other all the time. I also don't have time to text and call him every minute of every hour. At some point, your significant other is going to want some space. Everybody needs alone time, so don't take it personally.


These are just a few, but are the main ones I see on a daily basis. Don't be the crazy girlfriend. Your significant other will have a better appreciation for you if you establish trust and good communication.

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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
