Huffington Post

Relationships between men and women can be quite difficult to understand. Whether its a friendship or a love interest, the common theme lately is that woman are a mystery. Let's put the whole "I don't understand girls" thing to rest. Here are 30 things that all men should know about women:

1) Believe it or not, being moody and "pmsing" are not synonyms.

Actually, just don't mention our periods at all and you should be good.

2) We really don't want you to take us to fancy dinners all the time. Pizza will do just fine.

We are not trying to fool you here.

3) Contray to popular belief, girls are not a mystery. We will tell you want we want...you just have to listen.

We don't want to make this whole relationship thing harder than it already is, trust me.

4) Girls and guys CAN be just friends.

(I know shocker right??)

5) And on that note, just because we like to spend time with you, it does not automatically mean we want "the D."

Being attracted to you as a person does not mean we automatically want to sleep with you.

6) But if we do like you, you will know.

We are terrible at hiding our emotions after all.

7) In an argument, it's better to just agree to disagree than continue to fight. You will not win.

Girls will fight even when they know they are wrong. You don't have to admit that we are right, just drop the argument. It's not worth it.

8) If we are ever in a bad mood, just show us a cute picture of a puppy and chances are we will completely forget why we were sad.

A cute animal picture a day will keep bad moods at bay.

9) "Hangry" is a legitimate thing and it explains 99% of our "mood swings."

I literally turn into a snickers commercial when I am hungry. I'm sorry.

10) A simple act of bringing me coffee on a stressful day will instantly change my mood.

Coffee is everything. Bonus points if you know our coffee order without us telling you.

11) Friend or boyfriend, it's nice to hear a compliment every now and then.

A simple compliment a day can change our entire perspective.

12) We will most likely forgive, but we never forget.

Unfortunately we cannot take an eraser to our memory.

13) We only want what's best for you, even after you break our hearts.

I will still try to put a smile on your face, even if you keep putting frowns on mine.

14) And speaking of love, please don't hurt us.

15) If you ever feel the desire to be with someone else, please break up with us. Don't cheat.

Cheating is the dumbest thing ever. If you don't like us anymore, please just end it.

16) Girls can drink beer, and like it.

Beer is no longer just a frat guy thing.

17) No, we do not need you to take care of us at the party.

We don't want you to act like our fathers. We don't always need a man to be happy.

18) Yes, we are perfectly capable of being happy AND single.

We don't always need a man in order to find happiness. That is what margaritas are for.

19) If you are lucky, we will have your children one day. You don't get to comment about our weight.

The answer to "does this dress make me look fat?" is ALWAYS "You are beautiful."

20) If you want to go out with your friends, tell us! Just don't lie to us about where you are going.

We can always use a girls night out!

21) Actually, just don't lie to us in general. Girls are the FBI for ourselves and our friends.

We can and will find out the truth, believe me.

22) We don't need to be the center of your world, but we do deserve a thought when you make decisions.

We just want to know that you are thinking about us, that is all.

23) If we are dating, be confident in our relationship. Nothing hurts more than when you question us.

We promise to be upfront with you.

24) As your friend, we can and will become that jealous, crazily overprotective person when you start dating someone new.

We don't want to see our friend with the wrong person!

25) Thank you in advance for not saying anything when we're crying.

We really just want you to listen.

26) We can be a lot to handle, but so can you. Remember that.

You are not innocent my friends.

27) Please do not refer to use as "prudes" if we choose not to sleep with you, or "sluts" when we do.

These words should just be eliminated from the human vocabulary entirely.

28) We are willing to put up with a lot, but don't mistake our kindness for weakness.

Please don't take advantage of us.

29) We promise you that if you treat us right, we will always be by your side.

Thank you for being you.

30) Girls just want to have fun.

This is more than just a song. This is an anthem. This is life goals.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
