You deserve nothing but the best

There Is A Difference Between Somebody Who Wants You And Somebody Who Would Do Anything To Keep You

The truth is if someone really wants you they will put in all the effort they can to make sure that they always keep you. They will do what they have to do to make you happy, cheer you up, always be there for you. Honestly, you deserve nothing less than that. You shouldn't have to fight for someones attentions, you shouldn't have to ask over and over again if they want you in their life, that just isn't fair to you.

If someone wants to be with you to be apart of your life they'll make it happen.

Actions speak louder than words. I know it's nice to hear about how much someone likes you or how much you mean to them, but those words mean nothing unless they put the actions behind them. There is going to come a point were you get tired of justifying their actions. You'll eventually get tired of always coming up with excuses on why they do what they do. You don't deserve that, you should never have to justify someone else actions.

You deserve love where you receive as much as you give. If someone isn't willing to work towards that kind of love then it's OK to leave them. You are worth more than second thoughts and "maybes." You want to be with someone who gives you there all, you want to be with someone who is constantly showing you that they want you in their life. You don't deserve to be told maybe or going back and forth in the relationship. You want someone that is there for you whenever you need them. Someone that is ready to catch you when you fall. Someone that is going to give 110 percent toward the relationship to make sure that it works.

It's OK to walk away from someone who doesn't give you their all. It's OK to tell someone that you aren't ready for a serious commitment, but what isn't OK is dragging someone along with you, leading them on, making them believe that you are different from the rest. That's not OK.

Have standards. Make them know that you want and deserve nothing but the best and if they can't provide that to you then they simply do not deserve you.

Let them miss you. When you constantly go back to someone you are making it harder on yourself. You're making them believe that you are constantly available to them, they will take you for you granted, and they will believe you'll always stay. I know relationships can be scary because they either leave or they stay. It's scary when someone brings so much happiness into your life because at any second they can leave and take that happiness with them. Let them take it with them, let them walk away from you. You deserve nothing but the best from someone and if they can't offer that you, then they aren't the one for you.

Remember, there is a difference between somebody who wants you and somebody who would do anything to keep you, always remember that.

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.
