Unspoken Rules of a Best Friendship

Like life, friendship doesn’t come with a rulebook. There’s no manual in the world on how to carry out the most beneficial and long-lasting friendships. It takes two people who just get each other in every way to make it work, and there’s just some things that can’t be taught. Here are some of those unspoken rules that we all must follow: Always tell the truth, even if it’s going to hurt: It’s better to be hurt with the truth than pleased with a lie. Not many people are truthful in this world, but your best friend should definitely be one of them. The truth might hurt, but someone needs to say it. If she looks bad in a picture, don’t Instagram it no matter how good you look: This could be hard if your Instagram has been deprived of uploads lately and you FINALLY got a picture you look good

How It Feels to Have Never Been in a Serious Relationship

I’m twenty and I’ve never been in a relationship that’s lasted longer than a month or two. But so what, right? I’m only twenty. I still have my entire life ahead of me! I have goals and aspirations and things to learn about myself before I can properly settle down with someone. But it doesn’t always feel that way. Sometimes it just sucks, especially when it seems like everyone around me is in a relationship. There’s been times when I’ve wallowed in self-pity because I somehow convinced myself I’d be #foreveralone (I even have the tweets to prove it). And there’s been times when I thought it was the end of the world, like when I almost didn’t have a prom date and for some godforsaken reason I had to have a date or I wouldn’t go. Instead of thinking that I have my whole life ahead of me, I start wondering why I’ve never been in a serious relationship. I start to analyze every relationship

Please Stop Assuming You Can Read My Body Language

I’ve had my fair share of times when people think that they know exactly what I’m thinking or feeling based on my body language. My arms are crossed? Well that must mean one of two things: I’m cold or I’m angry. Wrong. I’m slouching in my chair in class? That means I don’t really care about what’s being taught or I’m not paying full attention. Wrong. I’m not smiling or laughing at something my friend just said? Obviously I don’t like what she said. Wrong. The truth? Sometimes I just feel like my arms are awkwardly hanging by my sides so I’ll cross them because it’s comfortable. I have a tendency to slouch in class because the desks are uncomfortable and if I’m going to have to sit in one for an hour and a half I’m going to make myself as comfortable as possible. I don’t find it necessary to smile or laugh at
