Sometimes, your crush's intentions can be hard to decipher. But other times, they can be clear as day. We can analyze texts with our friends, strategize and plot our next moves, but the reality is the same: they might not be that into you. As cuffing season is entering full force, here are a few signs your hookup is NOT trying to cuff you:

1. They don't introduce you to their friends or family.

If they see you as someone truly special to them, they'll want to show you off to their friends and introduce you to the people that matter to them. If they never invite you to anything that involves anyone else, and don't mention you to anyone, they probably don't want anything serious with you.

2. Their dates are lazy and sex-oriented.

They don't go the extra mile for your dates and it's clear they just want to hook up the whole time. Chances are, they're comfortable with Netflix and Chill every night - emphasis on the Chill.

3. They never text or call during the day.

Cue the 3 AM "You Up?" text.

4. They avoid sharing you on social media. 

It seems like they don't want any of their friends and followers (or any of their other hook-ups) to see that you two are hanging out.

5. They don't make any future plans with you.

Okay, you shouldn't be planning where you're going to go for your honeymoon with your new S.O. But if they avoid making any plans past this week with you, and make no effort to include you in future plans, chances are, they don't want you in them.

6. They don't try to get to know you.

In your conversations, they don't ask you much about yourself, your passions, or your family. It seems they only really care about one thing.

7. They're still talking to other people. 

They're still going on dates, texting other girls, and sliding into DMs that aren't yours.

8. They tell you they're not looking for anything serious.

It might not even be about you, just that they're not at that point in their life. People can be a mystery at times - but if your hook-up says this to you, they probably mean it, and you have to accept it.

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.
