There's less than a month until the Gilmore Girls revival hits Netflix.

I can honestly say that I hope Rory doesn't end up with any of her ex-boyfriends. I know Alexis Bledel said that all questions about Rory's love life gets answered and yes, all of her ex-boyfriends make an appearance in the revival. However, all of her ex-boyfriends were terrible. I'm not team Jess or team Dean or team Logan. I think Logan was her true love but I don't want them to end up together. Honestly she can do so much better than all three of them. Yes, no one is perfect but all of her boyfriends were actually the worst. I used to be a huge fan of all of them but going back to re-watch the series made me realize how terrible they all actually are.

Even in the early seasons, Dean was horrible. He admits he was stalking her before they started dating, he made her feel bad for wanting to go to the Chilton dance even though he could see it meant a lot to her, he got in a fight with her because he wanted a life and marriage like the Donna Reed show, he lashed out and broke up with her because she wasn't ready to say 'i love you' back (i mean look at what happened with Lorelei and Christopher in high school-can you blame her for being scared?) he got mad when she was trying to get into Harvard and couldn't spend all of her time with him, he broke up with her in front of everyone twice because he doesn't have the decency to make sure their relationship stays between them and not crowds of people, after he broke up with her and she went to the winter carnival with her then-boyfriend Jess, he was being all possessive as if they were still dating. Oh and the time he cheated on Lindsay, his wife, was also not okay. Plus, there was that time he couldn't be bothered to read an article Rory had written and was really proud of.

Jess was just quite possibly the most toxic of Rory's ex-boyfriends. He did the same thing that Dean did when they started dating, and kept going after Rory even when he knew she was dating someone. He out-bid Dean in the basket town auction which wasn't cool. He didn't say anything and just kept the bracelet Dean gave Rory when it fell off her wrist. He belittled Dean every time he had a conversation with Rory. He basically only insulted or disrespected Lorelei and Luke, two of the most important people in Rory's life. Also what about that time Rory agreed to tutor him but he kept not paying attention, goofing off, manipulating Rory into going to get ice cream and then crashing her car and breaking her wrist? That chip on shoulder never let him apologize about anything or feel anything other hatred for everything and everyone except Rory. Also he had serious anger issues-he should've been put in therapy for how often he lashed out. He couldn't make plans or stick to them at all but somehow expected Rory to drop everything for him. HE PRESSURED HER TO HAVE SEX WITH HIM WHEN HE FOUND OUT HE WOULDN'T GRADUATE AND THEN YELLED AT HER WHEN SHE WOULDN'T. He had serious communication issues, he couldn't even break up with Rory. He just left and then kept calling her and hanging up without saying a word. He was controlling and manipulative and just not a good guy.

Logan was constantly leaving at any sign of trouble. He left Rory when she told him she loved him and wanted to marry him but didn't want to leave everything she knew and everyone she loved. She had just graduated for college, she didn't even have a career yet.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
