Isn’t it something that we often obsess over the relationships we feel are unfinished? We all have someone; Maybe they’re someone you always go back to, someone that just got away, or maybe someone who never got the chance.

Maybe it’s the difference, maybe it’s the distance, maybe as you grow to know them you realize that the two of you are best left as friends... but deep down want to make it out of the friend-zone. They are your guilty pleasure in your mental space. But that does not make them any less important.

“The timing isn’t right”

“It wasn’t meant to be”

The words that find a way to shatter everything inside you within a matter of seconds.

I will never understand how everything can be so perfect; the feeling, the compatibility, the emotion.

If things aren’t meant to be, Why does it feel like it is?

Everything happens for a reason. When it comes to your happiness, is that not worth figuring out?

I have to constantly say to myself, If someone makes you feel, let them. LET IT HAPPEN. You know just as well as I, it’s not always an easy thing to do. But if that person cannot admit that to themselves, throw that on the list of why it's not meant to be.

Actions speak louder than words, and words cannot even hide the connection when they're saying to you that they don't feel it. I’ve learned to trust my gut and the actions of the boys I talk to now, and it’s really helped me weed out the bad ones!

Have you ever met someone, regardless of the situation, the location, the age; and you just felt this strong connection towards them? Whether it was mutual or not, it was there and inside of you and you felt it everywhere.

I beat myself up a lot for not going after things I felt a strong connection towards, if I could go back in time, or if I had a do-over, you best believe I would make things better.

You will never connect the same way with any other person you meet and every person offers you something different. I used to talk to this boy who would say this all the time and I never actually got it, until now.

Not everything is going to make sense, and not everything has an immediate answer as to why it is the way it is, although I know I wish it did. But, for the things that do, try and get that answer. Figure it out.

Things are not always as they appear, and that itself is the most amazing thing in my opinion. So whatever makes you happy, follow it. We feel things for a reason. You owe yourself that. Do something that matters, something that makes YOU happy.

Your happiness should be a priority, right? Make it so!

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.
