Don't Beat Yourself up over Wanting to do These Things ...

In this life, we are constantly apologizing for and constantly beating ourselves up for things that we shouldn't. Just because we are voting for a certain person in the election or we are staying in to binge watch Gilmore Girls all weekend, why should we have to apologize for that? These are just a few of the things that I do all of the time that I'm going to stop apologizing for, who's with me?

1 Ignoring a Phone Call

This is one that I do all of the time. Sorry, but I'm selective, I'll answer my wife (sometimes) and my mom. Everyone else? It's called texting for a reason.

Frequently asked questions

2 Saying No

Sometimes I just don't wanna … and I shouldn't have to.

3 Putting Yourself First

This is a big one, you've got to put yourself first at some point and those people that don't understand that? Eff 'em!

4 Staying in on a Weekend

Seriously. You're going to apologize for this? It's your weekend!

5 Not Checking Your Email

This is one that I have to get over, I do check my email but I might not respond right away. Or ever.

6 Your Living Situation

Some people live with their parents, some people live with roommates, why should it matter?

7 Binging on Netflix

I like my Netflix, thank you.

8 Your Feelings

Why would you? No, really, why would you? They are your feelings, don't apologize!

9 Your Career Goals

Again, some people want to be writers, some people want to just go to school – your career is your career!

10 Your Food Choices

OMG, this is a huge one. Sometimes I eat late at night and it's unhealthy, sometimes I have a salad. I shouldn't have to apologize for what I choose to eat.

11 Your Personal Life Choices

I can't stress this one enough either, my life is my life. Be in it or peace out!

12 Being Single

Not every single person needs to be in a relationship, some people want to be single forever. It works for them.

13 Using a Dating App

Or, some people want to find someone and haven't yet and therefore, they are using Tinder or Grinder. What's the big deal?

14 Not Washing Your Hair

Sometimes, I can go three days without washing my hair … so what?

15 Your Political Views

Especially right now, this isn't something you ever need to apologize for.

16 Your Religious Views

You are the one worshiping whoever you want, why should you say sorry about that?

17 Not Being Friends on Social Media

This one is funny, we get so caught up on accepting or not accepting friend requests. Don't want to be friends with them? Don't!

So, there you have it, these are all of the things I am officially not apologizing for. What are you going to not apologize for anymore?
