If You're Dating Someone For Money You Might Want To Use That Cash To Find Some Morals

Was the Gucci bag worth someone else's marriage?

If You're Dating Someone For Money You Might Want To Use That Cash To Find Some Morals

I advocate gender equality to the fullest extent. I would never tell someone what to do with their body. However, when it comes to someone else's family, my opinion is completely different. In college, I have heard a lot of girls talking about going on "seeking arrangements" dates. Some girls were serious and others were joking, but to me, that is no laughing matter.

"Broke college kid" probably rings in your ears. Maybe you are jealous that you have carried the same backpack since ninth grade while other girls carry Louis Vuitton bags. Some days you feel like you deserve so much, you might feel as though things should be handed to you.

Escorting, sugaring, and even getting someone to Venmo you money seems like an easy way to get what you want. A few hours with a gross, rich guy and you can treat yourself, right? Wrong. This is morally corrupt. Most of the men on these websites are MARRIED. By partaking in this, you're messing with someone's marriage. Imagine being the wife of a man on a business trip who is alone. Picture yourself frantic when you find out he has been talking with someone young enough to be his daughter. All that just for a quick buck.


In my humble opinion, if you partake in these behaviors, you are not pro-woman at all. You can argue "my body, my choice," all you want. At the end of the day though, you made the choice to interfere with someone's marriage. You're not "young and crazy" for doing this, you are just desperate and corrupt.

The moral of the story is to have some damn morals. If you want something, work for it. Never accept a handout based on your anatomy. There is nothing glamorous about being the other woman in any situation.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
