We've all seen, and probably Googled, signs that our current romantic pursuit likes us back. However, we need to address the fact that those lists are only generalizations of things that may be an indicator of interest in one guy, but not in another. Just like we all have different things we're looking for in a relationship, we all express interest in different ways. Some guys may express interest by getting closer while others stumble over words because their nerves make them tongue-tied.

In addition, it's important to recognize that we all receive signs of interest differently. For example, some girls, myself included, may be flattered that a guy would pick up the check. Others may feel that hampers their independence. Neither way is right, just like being attracted to a redhead over a blond is neither right nor wrong. Just recognize that he may be trying to impress you and may not realize that's not your ideal style of communicating interest.

So, the next time you want to ask Google about the potential for a new relationship, it might be better to ask someone who knows the guy you're interested in really well. They can better read the specific situation and provide you with a more realistic picture of where the relationship could go.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
