Having a crush is all fun and games until the feelings you have for the person get more serious than you originally planned then its all abroad the train to stress city. Does he feel the same? Am I blowing things out of proportion and romanticizing too much? What if he just wants to be friends?

What if telling him my feelings messes everything up? These are the common thoughts that go through every girl's head when faced with a serious crush.


Now don't get me wrong realizing you like someone is really scary, you never know what another person is truly feeling, but sharing those feelings you have is worth every last bead of sweat. The worst that can happen is that the other person doesn't feel the same way and although that's a big punch to the gut, you gotta think.. what if this is the guy for me? You have to be honest about your feelings.


Telling your crush in itself your feelings is a thrill. The rush of adrenaline that you'll get from being vulnerable will leave you buzzing for days and if he feels the same it could last for months.

Plus it makes you look super confident, not only does it make you look like you're oozing self-esteem, it shows that you are strong and not afraid with sharing anything and gives a lasting impression.


AND it'll stop you from overthinking, over evaluating and plain just driving yourself nuts. The longer you hold your feelings in, the longer they'll bounce around in your brain and make you question everything. As soon as you express your emotions, that will stop. Put your mind at ease and just be honest with the guy you've had your eye on.


WORST case, they don't feel the same and you're just one person closer to finding your prince charming, BEST case scenario you both feel the same and get to explore the feelings and have a little fun together. We need to stop being stuck on the 'What Ifs' and just figure out point blank what's going on. Stop stressing, stop bottling things up, shoot ya shot and be happy or move on. We aren't here to be playing games anymore.

RBF

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.

April Ludgate

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
