8 Things To Look For When Finding Mr. Right

Girls search their entire life trying to find Mr. Right. However, how do we know when we've found Mr. Right? Does he have the color eyes you want, big muscles and drive a nice car? While there are certain things we wish for in a man, having those qualities doesn't make him the right guy. If he is the right man for you, there will be certain things that set him apart from everyone else.

1. He will try his best to make you smile every day.

Even when you're being moody, or driving him crazy, he will want to make you smile. If he's truly Mr. Right, he will always want you to be happy.

2. Even if he doesn't particularly like your family, he will tolerate them.

While they may not always get along, Mr. Right will put up with your family because he knows how much they mean to you. He will do his best to get along with them because it will make you happy.

3. He will accept you as you are.

He won't try to change you because he loves you just the way you are. Even if you have a weird laugh, he won't ask you to stop laughing. The real Mr. Right will love you regardless of your odd habits.

4. Size won't matter to him.

Whether you are a size 0 or a size 30, if he's the right one, he won't care what size you are. He will love you for who you are, not for how big your hips are.

5. He will keep working at the relationship.

Every couple fights, but if he stays around after the fights instead of leaving, he really loves you. Love can survive arguments, just so long as you want it to.

6. The last thing he would ever even consider is hurting you.

Whether it's making you cry or physically hurting you, if he loves you, he will want to avoid hurting you at all costs.

7. He makes you genuinely happy.

Instead of wanting to stay asleep so you can dream, you will want to wake up so you can talk to him.

8. He treats you with respect.

If you really love someone, you will treat them with the respect they deserve. You won't call them bad names or cuss them out because you care about them. Mr. Right will treat you the way you deserve to be treated.


While none of these characteristics are physical traits, they don't need to be. If we only stay with someone based on their looks, that isn't true love. If you truly love someone, it doesn't matter what they look like on the outside. It only matters what kind of person they are on the inside. If they do their best to make you smile, love you the way you are, and treat you with respect, then you need to hold on to them. Realize that you have found your Mr. Right, and don't ever let him go. However, don't forget that you need to treat him with the same love and respect. If you do this, and remember that love can survive anything, you will find your happily ever after.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
