HELLO MY DEARS! Today is technically the last day of my school so I'm happy! Anyway, this is dedicated to Tabitha, my cool writing buddy because the first fifty stuff you see here probably came from the deep talks we had! So, enjoy it! Oh, plus the flower inspiration! Yay!!!  

  Mother has a list of rules pasted on the wall behind the television in the living room. The list is never ending, with many thousand pages being added each day. However, I don't believe in actually reading all of the rules because if you truly pay attention to everything, you'll never get a boyfriend. However, there are some things which makes complete sense. Here are the first fifty rules that I read on my birthday this morning.

1. Scrutinize each boy down to the smallest detail.

2. Check on his background. Make sure he is one with a troubled family.

3. Never go for the bad boys. They spell trouble.

4. Players are created to make you feel whatever they want you to feel. Don't trust them.

5. Never judge a boy by his actions. Suspect all of them.

6. Never place yourself in a position where they have the upper hand.

7. Never confess before he does.

8. Never agree to his suggestions before considering the consequences, the reasons and the actions.

9. Never be taken in by honey words. They are fake.

10. There is rarely such a thing called true love.

11. Love at first sight does not exist.

12. Never go for the looks. They deceive.

13.  A true partner brings out the worst in you.

14. No staying over at boys' houses. (unless I have met them.)

15. No boys staying over the night.

16. No boys in the bedroom.

17. Don't ever believe that you can change someone. A leopard will never change its spots.

18. Do not attempt to engage any players in any game.

19. It is impossible to have immunity against boys. They can twist you.

20. Never sacrifice your happiness for one boy.

21. Always put your interests first, when dealing with boys.

22. Never allow them to play with your vulnerable side.

23. Never ever let them into your heart.

24. A guy that plays with you is a guy deserved to be shot.

25. Never think that any guy is worth the pain you're going through.

26. When the future seems stark, it's not worth to spend it with him.

27. Always keep secrets from the boy. Never ever divulge your whole life the moment you meet him.

28. If you are suspicious, trust your instinct.

29. Never ignore your instincts.

30. Never make the first move.

31. Playing hard to get is just telling people that you're just like those scumbags.

32. Learn how to cut yourself away from a clingy guy.

33. Never be shallow. Before you ditch a guy,  make sure you know why.

34. Never steal a guy from another girl.

35. If a guy forsakes another girl for you, never accept him. He can do the same to you.
