How To Know When You've Fallen In Love
cosmopolitan

Ever since you were a teenager, you wanted to be able to find someone that you would love forever and never get tired of. I'm sure each of you had someone picked out in your mind, from their stature, hair color, build and even what their laugh would sound like. Farther down the road, you find someone who is the complete opposite of what you had pictured, and you are perfectly okay with it.

You have gotten the courage to ask them out and have been dating them for quite awhile. There are a few words that you want to say to them but aren't sure. Because you want to be sure that what you are feeling for them is the real deal. Here is where I'm hoping to help. Just take some time and look for the signs that you have fallen in love with them.

You can't help but smile every single time you think about them. This is a state of infatuation around the first few months of dating, where butterflies fill your stomach everyday, you want to talk and look at them every chance that you get, and you would do anything you can for them. however it can linger longer if the affections lasts more than a few months. You even love the way that they smell. This may be weird but I'm sure we all have done it. I have, I won't deny it.

They will encourage you to want and do better for yourself, whether it's doing better in high school classes, excelling more at sports, to helping you get your life together with finding a new job when you're older. Having someone tell you that they are proud of you no matter who they are, can pick someone who is down in the dumps up to cloud nine very easily.

You can never get tired of them. No matter what happens, trials or fights that arise you will always work things out. You are able to play video games and not get mad at each other when the tension ensues. my absolute favorite part about being in a relationship is that you are simply able to lay beside each other and talk about your day, however don't forget to leave work situations at work. There shouldn't be added drama in the relationship. It makes for a bad situation that should easily be avoided.

I hope this helps, and that your relationship is everything you thought it would be.

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.
