Having a guy best friend definitely has its perks as well as its downfalls, but the one thing you know for certain is that in the end they are always there for you. They will have always have your back and teach you to be a more bold, confident, and even silly, version of yourself.

1. Life doesn’t always have to be so serious

You are constantly laughing and being obnoxiously loud, in public might I add, and you don't really care
who is silently judging you. It is all about fun and laughter when you are together.

2. He has almost all the answers when it comes to those non-girly things

Besides your dad, he's your go to when you have any questions about sports or why your car is making that weird noise again.

3. You’ve grown to become thicker-skinned

For instance, those little, snarky comments that used to hurt your feeling, but now you respond with one right back. Just like having a brother.

4. Expectations of looking nice when you hang out with him are thrown out of the window

"Yeah you can come over, but my hair is a mess and I'm still in my pajamas."

5. You're his personal wing-woman

You know him better than anyone else, so you know exactly what kind of girl is his type and have maybe even tried to set him up with one of your new friends.

6. Everyone assumes you’re dating

"Oh you and *fill in name here* aren't dating??" Umm no...but spending almost every moment together probably doesn't help.

7. You probably do some things that are quite "couple-ish"

You go to the gym and out to eat with each other, scratch each other's backs, and maybe even cuddle a little, but it is all in the package deal of your friendship.

8. He’s one of the first to know when you think a guy is cute

You feel the need to tell him about any potential guy because he knows how to decode any ambiguous messages and will give you the best advice on how to respond to those awkward boy texts. After all, he is a guy.

9. Any potential boyfriend has to vibe well with him

He's your best friend and you would never give him up for some guy. That's best friend code, duh.

10. He’s seen you ugly cry

He's seen you ugly cry about something as small as McDonald's being out of ice cream or a cute puppy and didn't judge you for it at all. Now that my friend, is true friendship.

11. You’d be lost without him

He's your best friend, and like any other best friend, you couldn't do life without him.

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.
