I do not think anyone truly understands the significance of having a guy best friend in college who wants nothing more than to be friends. I don't think I would be able to survive without a guy best friend, and I believe every girl deserves that.

First of all, it is refreshing.

Honestly, it is refreshing to have a guy best friend with pure intentions. He wants nothing more than to be there for you as a friend and enjoy your company. He knows where you two stand, and he doesn't try to push beyond those boundaries.

It is such a great feeling knowing you have a guy friend like that, especially in college. You don't have to walk on eggshells. Many college guys only want one thing-- even those who claim to be your "friend". My best friend and I know exactly where we stand. We are just friends and nothing more. I can talk to him about any and everything, and I do not have to worry about it.

Guy best friends give you a different perspective.

Girls, for the most part, will side with their friend. I've witnessed many girls give mediocre advice, and go with whatever you say. When you're in fight mode, so are they. Guys, however, are straightforward. They understand the male perspective, and they are able to give you insight into any situation you are dealing with.

They are also about to help you make rational decisions. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to my best friend, and he has given me such great advice without having to say much. He really just steers me in the right direction.

Finally, I want good vibes only.

College is all about having a great time. Guys are DRAMA-FREE. Guys are all about good vibes only, and kicking back and relaxing. I literally have no issues with my best friend.

We tell each other things straight up and that's that. We do not dwell on it. We keep it pushing. There is never a dull moment, and I do not have to worry about unnecessary drama.

As said before, all college girls deserve a guy best friend who has pure intentions and wants nothing more than a friendship.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
