Stop The Fantasy: Social Media Relationships Aren't What They Seem
http://www.blackgirlhealth.com

In today's society, we have created this type of fictional world where everything is supposed to be set in stone. Girls are going around saying #RelationshipGoals and thinking relationships are about taking cute pictures and showing your significant other off to the world. News flash! That’s the complete opposite of what relationship was built upon. Social media is only for you to see what people want to broadcast to the world. No one really shows the real uncut views of being in a relationship and being married. It includes taking that person as themselves and loving them unconditionally. It includes being their backbone when they are feeling discouraged and feel like all hope is gone. Relationships are fun, don’t get me wrong. But, let’s not forget there are ups and downs in anything we really put our all into.

Ladies let’s remember that we must never let a guy disrespect or make us feel any less of a Queen no matter how cute or how much he tells us he loves us. If his actions are not backing him up, then you need to consider letting him go. Make sure you have everything in order within yourself before you bring someone into your life. If you are not ready to add someone else's baggage to your life, then it’s best that you take the time to focus on your life making sure you have everything under control mentally and physically.

You don’t have to wear inappropriate things in order for a guy to like you. Wearing outfits that are revealing is only sending signals that that’s the only thing you have to offer. You want him to have something to wonder about. You don't want to let him see your body before he knows your mindset and views on life. Remember to always put yourself first and never let anyone make you forget your morals and the respect you have for yourself.

Know that relationships are not just rainbows and sunshine, but can also be hurricanes and tornadoes too. Stay patient and everything will fall into place the way God intended.

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.
