Dear Guy Best Friend,

I personally wanted to take this time to say thank you. There have been so many times, day and night, that I should have said this more or should have said it louder, because you honestly deserve this thank you and eight kajillion more.

Thank you for always being there when I needed you the most.

I could have seen you five minutes ago or maybe it has been five years, but this never stopped you. Thank you for never letting time get in the way between us two. It never mattered where I was or what you were doing, but you always made time to at least make sure that I was okay. You have always been there for me with 100-mile car rides and suffering through 100-degree heat together, and I honestly wouldn’t have it any other way.

Thank you for always making me smile.

Whether I was having a bad day or it was just a look you would give me, you never failed to put a huge grin on my face. You are always cracking a joke or acting like a complete goofball, but I love you for this more than anything. I know that if I am ever having a bad day that you are the person that I want to see and go to. (Even if you hit me with a towel or try to shoot me with a BB gun.)

Thank you for loving me no matter what.

There have been so many times where I have been mean or even pushed you away, but you always take me right back and always forgive me. I know I can be super needy and bratty sometimes, but it has never stopped you from being you and still trying to make everything better. You have always been there, and I am so thankful for this.

Thank you for showing me that there are amazing men still in this world.

You always tell me that there is “the one” out there for me, and this is something that I truly believe. As we face our issues differently when it comes to this, I want to thank you for showing me that there are amazing people in this world that are going to go above and beyond to make me happy.

Thank you for loving me for me.

You have never wanted me to change a single bit or want me to be different than the person that I am today. You always make me feel special and loved for the person that I am. Thank you for showing me that it is okay to be me and show me that the person that I am is the best me that I can be. We have both had our fair share of mistakes in the past, and I am glad for them, but thank you for not judging me on mine and accepting that they are for the better.

Guy best friend, you truly are one of the best people that I have ever met in this world. You love and care so much for everyone around you and I don’t know what I would do without you in my life. You are stuck with me now so don’t think that you are going anywhere anytime soon.

I love you so much. Thank you for everything.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1259

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2617

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
