Read it and weep besties. It’s the truth. Stop wasting your time over a boy who just wants you around to boost his ego, to do his bidding, and to make himself more attractive to other women.

Boys will keep you waiting and play mind games with you, and the LAST thing we’re doing is putting up with it any longer. Today, we welcome Patti Stanger back to Almost Adulting...

We always search for someone who can be there with us when we feel lost and helpless, and someone who can embrace us even when we feel unworthy of love. Sounds simple enough right? But if all of that is true, why do all...
