How To Play Hard To Get And Why You Shouldn't

I never understood the girls who waited exactly seven minutes to answer a text. I don't comprehend the girls who tell a date they're too busy meanwhile they're watching TV. I never understood why avoiding someone at a party or waiting them to approach you first was acceptable.

I don't play hard to get.

I'm not saying I'm easy or that I play into someone's hand, but I certainly don't make myself a task for some guy. I'm not ever going to avoid a "hey" for a half hour for whatever reason some girls have. If my phone is with me, I'll answer in the same minute without shame. If it isn't then I'm sorry, its gonna be awhile but as soon as I have my phone I'll be sending a text back. I'm the girl that will give you the time of day if you give me yours. I don't play games.

Playing hard to get just shows me that you're not mature enough to have a relationship. No honest person is pretending that they can't go to dinner. Since when is "being too available" a bad thing?

Since when is having free time you're wiling to share not okay? I'm okay with spending the night with someone and when they ask when they can see me next, saying the next night. If I'm free, I will make plans. I will not lie about being busy to make you want me more or some backwards logic.

Ladies, please tell me why you're scared to approach someone at the bar or party? If you see someone you want to talk to and they haven't noticed you yet, go over and say "hello!" I will not be the girl holding her phone and her drink in the corner texting her friends that "he" is here and "hasn't had the nerve to come over to me".

Personally, I think playing hard to get is way more effort than it's worth and being yourself will be the most desirable way to get romantic affection. So, get out there girls!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
