If you ever think of saying one of the things on this list, just don't.

"What are you?"

I am a person who is about to scream when I hear this. How I identify is none of your business unless I am dating you.

"How do you have sex?"

Would you ask a stranger who you presume is heterosexual this? No? Then don't ask me.

"I kissed a girl once."

Cool. Me too. I don't care.

"Do you know *insert name of random LGBT person?"

Contrary to popular belief, we do not have one big gay group chat. So no. I do not know your cousin's friend's brother who is dating a man.

"Who is the man in the relationship?"

Neither of us. That is the point. The point is that there is no man. Why do I have to explain this so much?

"Have you ever been with/kissed a boy?"

What I have or have not done is none of your business unless I am dating you. So don't ask.

"How do you know?"

This one is often a follow up the previous one if the answer was "no." How did you know that you are straight if you've never been with a person of the same sex? You just do.

"I'm totally okay with it!"

Cool! I didn't ask. I hope you would be okay with people existing in a way that does not effect you at all.

"Can I watch?" or "Will you kiss for me?"

No????????? ???????????? ????????? Why would you ever think I would?

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.

If you’re from the Midwest, it seems to be that winter lasts for what feels like forever. But despite the struggles that winter brings, there are so many things to love about it.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.
