Seriously…if a guy is going to hold my hand…he is just asking for me to fall for him. Nothing is cuter to me than that.

thankyouforsayingthat:

Holding hands might just be the cutest thing ever. It’s such an intimate gesture, yet innocent at the same time. When you feel their hand touching the palm of yours it’s like the entire world is at your fingertips at that moment. And even better, the first time two people ever hold hands, is precious. When the person nudges at your hand and eventually slides their fingers interlocking with yours and you feel your cheeks getting warm, turning a shade of rosy pink and your heart pounding like drums. When they grasp on so tight like it would be impossible to let you go. How their hand just seems to fit right into yours as if it was meant to be that way. So beautiful and satisfying with a rush of different emotions. And just with the knowledge that your hands are linked together makes your hearts even fonder and you can literally feel how close you are to each other.

lol just make me hate my life even more 😥

Life In Your 20s

Life in your 20s is not easy. It’s that time in your life when you are supposed to be living like an adult but you still find yourself living like a teenager. You’re either straight out of college trying to find the right career path for yourself, or you’re working at a job that’s just okay but not where you saw yourself headed as you tossed your cap in the air at your high school graduation. Maybe you don’t even have a job. Maybe you’re still living with your parents, or living on your friend’s couch. No matter where you are in life…if you’re in your 20s… it’s not smooth sailing quite yet.

Being in your 20s is about going out with your group of friends and having to split the bill 5 ways, with 5 different visa debit cards, because hey, you’re 20 something. No one is financially stable yet where they could pick up the tab for everyone and not panic about paying your rent the next week. Being in your 20s is about buying a handle of vodka and pre-drinking as much as possible on a Friday night so when you do actually head out to the bars, you won’t have to spend as much money to get drunk. Being in your 20s is about still picturing your dream life and not settling on the idea of not achieving it. You aren’t 30 something. That dream job, dream house, dream boyfriend/girlfriend is STILL possible! No need to panic right? We’ll panic when we’re 30.

If you are a 20 something girl or guy, life can look pretty shitty at times. You can feel alone, you can feel lost, you can feel like you arent where you are supposed to be in life. And you’re filled with worry that everyone else around you is going to pass on by and achieve stability and you never will.

But dont worry! You are not alone. There are a million of us out there, struggling and discouraged. But every day we grow, we mature, we learn more about ourselves, and in the meantime we manage to have a damn good time. The crazy, fun, unstable moments we have in our 20s are some of the best memories we’ll ever have. And though we might not realize it now, every action we take is leading us on the path to an even better future.  Promise.

Things To Remember When You’re Single « Thought Catalog

I realized today…

that when it comes to dreaming about my future husband or dreaming about my career, I spend 75% of the time picturing and dreaming about my career.  And I’m not just saying that because I’ve been single for so long and I want to feel better about myself.

It’s true. I would love nothing more than to be in love, starting a family, and settling down, but I realized today, that I subconsciously think more about my future and what I see myself doing as a career than about a husband and family.

I haven’t figured it out yet (obvi) but I have not given up and I have not stopped dreaming. Success is the only option.

Is there…

a category in the Guinness Book of World Records for being single the longest? Because I’m pretty sure I would be on it.

Where The Boys At?

Tonight my apartment complex had a “come meet your neighbors on the deck” pizza party. Of course I was stoked because I see about 5 hot guys a day running around this complex so I thought….PERFECT! I can finally meet some! …or friendly neighbors…either or.

Well turns out “pizza” party was actually just “grab some free pizza, hang out by yourself, then leave” party . So… my roommate and I didnt meet a single person. Wait, I take that back. We did meet one very odd strange girl who plopped herself right down next to us and said “Hi. How long have you two lived here? Oh cool. I’ve lived here since June and my car got broken into.”
Umm… okay. hahaha Sheesh! And don’t think we didn’t try. It was just unfortunate that the only people that showed up to the party were couples and tenants over the age of 40. Cool.
I think the next party should be a “come work out in the gym” party so then maybe the hot guys will actually be around and I can meet one!

The Boyfriend Diet

I need to be on the boyfriend diet. It’s the only diet that has really worked for me. What’s the boyfriend diet you ask? Well let me tell ya….

The boyfriend diet consists of two main areas: portion control and daily workouts.

When I have a boyfriend I spend most of my time with him. That means that 75% of my meals are shared with this person. If I’m with my boyfriend I’m not going to order 4 tacos like I usually would if I was by myself or with my girlfriends, I’m going to order only 2 tacos. I’m not going to finish my whole plate of food when I’m with my boyfriend…I dont want him thinking I’m a fat ass…so I’ll only eat half my plate…if that. So when youre on the boyfriend diet…you’re totally engaging in portion control without even realizing it. And it’s because the whole time you’re thinking “I can’t eat more than him.”

The daily workouts are pretty self explanatory. When you have a boyfriend you get to partake in a strenuous cardio workout if ya know what I mean. *wink wink* *nudge* *nudge* Again, without even realizing…you are getting a work out and burning calories without needing to hit the gym. You’re not just pleasing yourself and your boyfriend…but working on your abs, legs and arms. It’s a win win!

I should probably patent my boyfriend diet plan before it goes global. I could be the next Betheny Frankel and write a book. Instead of “Natuarlly Thin” it’ll be titled “Naturally Thin Because of My Boyfriend.”     Okay…the title needs some work but you get the picture.

Dear boy…

Single Girl Story #9

I was walking with my roomate downtown last night heading to a friend’s birthday party. We had dressed up for the evening knowing the place we were going to was a little classier.

As we were walking, an attractive guy wearing a suit was walking a bit ahead of us looking down at his iphone. I checked him out and thought he looked very nice and was pretty cute. As we continued to walk he turned around, glanced at us, stopped and said “Hi ladies. I’m sure you’re both very busy but I had to stop you and say (turns toward my roommate) You are absolutely stunning!” My roommate smiled and laughed and thanked him but he continued on with “Seriously…your hair, your smile, your style…it’s all very attractive.” “Where are you from?” “Where are you heading?” “Seriously you are so beautiful.” …. This is where it got uncomfortable. Not only did we both realize at the same time that this guy was a weirdo…not a nice attractive guy like I had thought…but he was also starting to make me feel like shit.

hahahah Just kidding. It was fine. I mean…it’s totally okay to stop two girls who are walking and completely compliment one of them but not the other. Totally okay.

As my roommate smiled and thanked him once again we started to walk away and heard him mutter to himself “Aww…youre leaving? Walking away so soon?”
We picked up our speed and kept on walking.
