To The Man Who Ends Up Loving Me

When I find you, the wait will have been worth it.

To The Man Who Ends Up Loving Me

To The Man Who Finally Loves Me,

I know I’m a pain. I know I have endless amounts of flaws that can be unflattering at times. I’m needy, I can be loud, I can be stubborn, there are times when I can be exactly like your mother. But all of this comes out of the fact that I care about you, more than words can say, and I am showing love in the very messed up way that I know how.

By the time I find you, I would have waited for you for what seems like an eternity, at times hopeless that anyone could love the woman that I am. But that time has taught me so many things about myself and about love. It has helped me grow into that woman that you have learned to love so much.

Spending all of that time without you has taught me about the beauty of independence, the beauty of being able to do things on my own. That time has taught me that I am the most impatient human being on the face of this planet, because all I wanted was to find you. The time it took for you to love me has taught me that my standards are set for a reason, that being picky pays off. You, taking your time has taught me how love can change a life.

When I find you, when we find each other, I want you to know that I will be your best friend. I will be the person that holds you when you’re sad, the person that will make you feel better when you’ve had a bad day. I will be the person that you immediately call when you get the promotion at work, the person you go out to celebrate with when you get a raise. I will be the person that goes on crazy adventures with you, the person you travel the world with. I will be the person who takes care of you when you’re sick, gets mad at you when you come home drunk from a night out with the boys only to help you get rid of your hangover the next day. I will be the person that you’ll fight with, you’ll make-up with, and then do it all again. I will be the person that wears your clothes because I clearly don’t have enough of my own. I will be that person. I will be your person.

To the man that finally loves me, I want you to know that you can always trust me, unless I’m planning a surprise birthday party with your sister. You can always count on me, unless the new season of American Horror Story was added to Netflix. You can always plan on me being indecisive, late to everything, and tired 24/7, but I’ll still be there.

To the man who finally loves me, thank you for loving me.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
