I have seen countless tweets/facebook statuses and heard tons of rants on people's manners.

I'm all for people using their manners, saying please and thank you, respecting each…
How To Reconnect With Old Friends
Losing friends is a part of life. With any relationship, sometimes people just get distanced from each other. They fight, they grow apart, they move, they let something get in the way.

Confessions Of A Former Mean Girl
Alright - I'm not saying I'm the nicest girl in the world right now. But I used to be pretty mean. Nowadays I think they would've called me a bully in high school - in my day we just called it being mean girls. I walked around with a glare on my face most of…
Appreciate Your Bad Friends
We've all had bad friends. Friends we made for temporary convenience who we never made a real connection with. This made it hard to care when fights about silly things occurred or life drama that was just way more than you could deal with. Friends who you gave your all, but just didn't care about…
