17 Silly Things Never to do Just Because of a Boy ...

If I had a nickel for every time I did something stupid for a boy – or a girl, for that matter – I could stop working right now. When you get all wrapped up in your feelings, you do things you wouldn't normally do. You can be the strongest, most independent woman in the world, but you're probably not immune. You've waited for someone to text you back. You've shed a tear for an ex. You've wondered what's wrong with you. I think we need to stop that nonsense. We need to stop doing these unnecessary things just because of a bunch of trifling boys and silly girls.

Don't Cry over That Boy

Don't Cry over That Boy There is not one single boy out there who is worth your tears. There's not one single girl out there who is worth your tears, either. Never cry because of someone else. You know what the old cliché says, yes? The only person worth crying for is the one who will never make you cry in the first place.

Never, Ever do Harm to Yourself

Never, Ever do Harm to Yourself You are amazing. Wonderful. Smart. Kind. Funny. Beautiful. Don't hurt yourself because of someone else. If you're in a dark, painful place and you feel like you're losing control, please reach out. There are so many resources, from the Suicide Prevention Hotline to the Trevor Project, not to mention your friends and your family. Please realize that you are too incredible to let anyone hurt you like this.

Don't Cut Your Hair for Someone else

Don't Cut Your Hair for Someone else Cut yourself because you want to, not because someone else tells you that you'd look better with short hair, or that your bright pink streaks need to go, or that you need to stop straightening your hair. Screw that.

Don't Drop a Single Pound for a Dude

Don't Drop a Single Pound for a Dude You don't need to lose weight for anyone, man or woman. If you want to lose weight, do it for yourself – just yourself.

UPD:

Being secure in who you are is crucial, and that includes embracing your body as it is. Your self-worth isn't defined by a number on the scale or the expectations of someone else. Changing your appearance to please a partner isn't just unnecessary, it could indicate deeper issues in the relationship. Always prioritize your health and happiness over someone else's ideals. If your journey towards a healthier, stronger you is genuinely your own choice, that's fantastic—but never let a romantic interest dictate how you should feel about your body. You are more than enough, just as you are.

Never Compromise Your Morals Remember: no one worthwhile will ever ask you to compromise your morals. Your values are part of you. They're important to you. Anyone who asks you to change them or forget about them is kind of a lose.

Don't Pretend to Be Someone else You're so frigging phenomenal just as you are. You don't need to be anyone else. You don't need to be LIKE anyone else.

Never Dumb Yourself down

facial expression, face, image, nose, photography, Your brains are sexy. Your intelligence is alluring. Never dim your shine for someone else. Never. Not even once.

13

Never Go Farther than You Want to

Never Go Farther than You Want to In a similar vein, don't feel like you need to do anything you don't want to. Consent is everything. If a guy or a girl wants to break things off with you because you choose not to do something sexual, they're not worth one second of your time.
