According to Whom

You've seen it a million times in the movies: a girl and guy are best friends. The girl is usually in a terrible relationship where her boyfriend treats her like crap and the best friend thinks she's wonderful and shouldn't be with the jerk.

Have you ever been in that situation? I sure have. Why don't we want the good guy best friend type? Why do we stay with the jerks that make us feel like less of a human whenever they say they'll call and don't, make jokes at our expense, or just plain berate us.

All it should take is one quick swoop of the hand to his face, and we're better off. But we don't do that, ever. We stay and pretend that things will get better. That he loves me and he'll realize it some day. I can change him. When we get married... WHAT?! REALLY?!

If you're at all saying those things to yourself, oh honey! I don't even know you and I know that you deserve better than that. Now, I'm not saying that you have to run to your opposite gender best friend for comfort, but I am saying that you have to think more about what you want...and find it. Don't try to create it. No one is that good of an artist.

Be yourself and you'll find someone who appreciates you just the way you are, which in turn, will make you appreciate them all the more. Find someone that will treat you like a woman; be around for the good and the bad; love you morning, noon, and night; wants to marry you because he can't stand living apart from you; does things he normally wouldn't do just to see the smile on your face.

AND DON'T YOU DARE SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS!

SONG OF THE DAY: "According to You" by Orianthi
It's the song of the week and a jazzy little tune! Listen to it while you're putting on your make-up and fixing your hair. It will make you smile; kind of like the way a man should make you smile. It's a song about a man that thinks she's worthless, and then another man that thinks she's amazing. Hmmmm, who should she be with? Who are you with?
