10 Signs You've Found Your Person

Through thick and thin.

10 Signs You've Found Your Person
We Heart It

We all have that one person who is “our person”. Maybe it’s your best friend, maybe it’s the person you’re dating. Whoever it is, the two of you just click in a way that you never have with anyone else. Here are just a few of the many ways to know that you’ve found your person.

1. They know you better than anyone.

They know how grumpy you are in the mornings, which is why you live on coffee. They know that you have a hard time sleeping, but once you’re out, you’re out for 12 hours. They know how to tick you off for fun, how to cheer you up when you’re down, and how frequently you sing in the car. You’re totally yourself when you’re with them, no holding back.

2. When something happens, you go to them.

This isn’t even just with the big things. You text them when you get overly excited about seeing a dog on campus, when the people in the room next to you are playing "Hit the Quan" on repeat at 2 a.m. again, or when you find out Sonic has 89 cent burgers. This is probably the reason you never run out of things to talk about.

3. Your texting conversations would make no sense to anyone else.

They barely make sense to you.

4. It doesn’t matter what you’re doing, as long as you’re with them.

You honestly could care less if you’re going on some big adventure (which the two of you often do), or sitting around watching the Game Show Network in your basement. You just love being around them.

5. Likewise, you’ve even spent some of your time together running errands or napping.

“If I fall asleep, wake me up when the movie’s over.”

6. Your phone is filled with blackmail pictures of them.

Like that one where you turned their nose into a hawk or the one where they look like an egg. You didn’t nickname them “Eggy” for weeks without reason.

7. You’ve gotten to know their family well.

It’s bound to happen when you bring each other around so much. You’ve hung out with their little sister and gone on long car rides with their mom. You also have heard enough funny stories about them to fill in the gaps.

8. When you don’t see them for a week, it feels like a month.

And somehow you still feel like you have so much to catch them up on. How much can really happen in one week?

9. And yet, if it’s been longer, you have no problem picking up where you left off.

Sometimes seeing each other is hard. Despite that, you never lose even a small piece of your relationship to distance and time.

10. The two of you can withstand anything.

Even if you argue over something stupid, or even something big, you can get past it. You know what you’d be losing, and it’s not worth it. They’re your person through thick and thin, and that’s never going to change.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

We all have a person, and when that person makes some new friends, we tend to forget all the great things that can come out of it. Never forget how special they are to you and why you are best friends.
