What to do when you realize you messed up

It's always a trial getting out of the friend zone, you see someone you really want to be with, and they see you as a brother. Then, you get those rare friendships where somehow, you got out of the friend zone, and you realize that's not what you want, so, how do you get back in the friend zone?

1. Her friendship may just be more valuable.

You may have struggled to get out of her friend zone, but now you realize she really is just more of a sister to you and you may just need her help finding a new squeeze.

2. Ask her help to get laid.

Nothing will make her realize more if you walk up to her with an imploring gaze and beg her to hook you up with her roommate, because let's face it, her roommate is just so hot and you need to hop out of that friend zone.

3. Call her "sis."

This will make it easy, but kind of painful. It's hard to be texting someone in a flirty manner and suddenly this weird family term gets dropped. She calls you "hot" and you reply saying, "oh thanks sis." And then the floodgates are closed.

4. Blow her off for a date.

After all this struggle that you/your girl may have faced, you realize that there's a date coming up and you're most likely gonna be dropping 50-70 bucks on that bill. Now on a college budget, you have no chance to make this bill, so your phone "dies," that'll show her.

5. Change your phone number.

THIS IS ONLY IF YOU'RE DESPERATE. The tip says it all, just change your number and you're free, how is she gonna text you now, or send those constant selfies of her head tilted slightly to the side that makes her look so cute?

6. Give her some cheesy break up lines.

You may/may not be dating, but you're close enough at this point that you realize what a horrible mistake you made. So smoothen it over with some classic lines..."It's not you, it's me, and sometimes I feel like you won't be able to handle the real me..." Then hold her hand, shed a tear, and you're free.

7. Show off your dark side.

Remember, in high school, when for some reason you really liked Linkin Park and "Papercut" was your favorite song? Well the next time you two are cuddling, blast the song and stick your tongue out to show her your new tongue piercing. She'll be out the door faster than ever.

8. Embrace your vices.

There was that one time freshman year where you tried drinking, but the goody side of you didn't enjoy it and you unfortunately blacked out. Now if this girl hates drinking and just wants to stay in with you on the weekends drinking YooHoo with curly straws, DON'T! Go out to Huskies, get plastered, and text her at 3 in the morning saying how much fun you had.

9. Ask for medical advice.

For some reason, your realize that you may need Viagra to get it up. Tell her that.

10. Be unattractive.

This is hard for some of you "hotties" out there. But hey, just be a slob for a couple days, and you'll be in the friend zone with everyone! <--- This is the perfect solution.

So this may be a joke to some, or helpful to others. And if this is offensive, remember it is from a place of love, just friendly love.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
