Who Needs a Bae When You Have…

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Molloy chapter.

1. Mac & cheese Who needs a bae when one of the most satisfying feelings in the world is sinking your teeth into a perfectly cooked Mac and Cheese?? That’s right- no one. That’s because mac and cheese provides you with one of the best tasting your taste buds have ever experienced. You go through many emotions when eating mac and cheese, all just as satisfying as having a bae. Now if bae was giving you the mac and cheese that would be another story because wow you gotta keep them. For real, not much is better than Mac and Cheese (my personal fave is Panera Bread’s). 

2. Pizza

Again, one of the best feelings in the world is when you hear that doorbell ring after you ordered a pizza. You know that is the pizza deliver guy or gal and you have never been more ready for something in your life than to accept that glorious, delicous pizza they are about to put in your hands. Control yourself you think, it’s just pizza. But also if it turns out to be my mom or dad coming home from work or someone selling me something that isn’t pizza, I may just have a brain anueurism and die because that’s how much I love pizza. Pizza is love and pizza is life and no one should never come between you and pizza. And if you do happen to have a bae and they become between you and pizza- drop them. Drop them like nothing ever even mattered because they should know how important pizza is to you. But if you are like me, than pizza is bae. Too bad I keep eating my one true love.

3. Music

Seriously, who needs bae when you’ve got music. Sweet, beautiful, melodic music. Even just imagining you’re favorite artist soothing you ears after a long day is such an amzing feeling. It’s always there for you when no one else is. It’s like the artist just GETS you. Sometimes it feels like they wrote a song about your life because that’s how much you relate. I love Lana Del Rey because she makes me so nostalgic about all the past baes I never had. I wonder how they’re doing. See! I relate so much!

4. Money

In the words of Lana Del Rey, “Money is the reason we exist.” Ok maybe I wouldn’t go that far, but who needs bae when money is already your best friend. The only problem with money is that it is the bae that keeps on leaving you. Money has major commitment issues despite how much you love it. If only money could stay, because then you could buy everything your little heart desires.

5. Oversized Sweaters

Who needs bae when one of the best feelings is wearing your FAVORITE sweater. This is a good thing because all your sweaters are your favorite sweater. NOTHING is better than wearing your favorite oversized sweater at night, cuddling up in your sheets, and eating ice cream while watching your favorite movie. N-O-T-H-I-N-G. And nothing is more annoying than recieving a “wyd” text during these precious moments. Seriously, people should know that you need special time to spend with your sweater. How dare they interrupt.

6. Netflix!!!

Why Netflix and chill when you know you’re not going to actually be able to enjoy Netflix?? Netflix never ignores you and is always there for you,,,, unless there’s no wifi. And they don’t always have your fave movies but they do have some classics for you to rewatch if you’re having a bad day! Legally Blonde always helps give me a little motivation that I can do things when I feel I can’t! Can bae always do that? 

7. Ice Cream

Who needs bae when you already got two. There names are Ben and Jerry. Ben and Jerry always know how to make you feel better. They will never make you feel bad… unless you’re lactose intolerant. But that’s okay because there are plenty more things on this list! Ben and Jerry are just some of the optional men in your life to make you feel better. 

8. Chocolate

Yet another one of the many pleasures in life is chocolate. Who needs a bae when a chocolate bar is all you need. Feeling stressed? Chocolate. Feeling lonely? Chocolate. Feeling sad? Chocolate. Feeling hungry? Chocolate. Feeling happy? CHOCOLATE! Chocolate is the cure for everything and is perfect for every occasion. 

9. Yourself

It’s never a bad thing to love yourself! Who needs a bae when all you need is yopurself! Work on yourself, be the person you want to become! Set goals for yourself and acheive them and believe in yourself! You can do anything (including getting a bae). But don’t worry about getting a bae, do the things you love and be the best you can be. Never change yourself for a bae, they will come along naturally as you try and achieve your goals. Treat yourself, eat all the Ben and Jerrys you want and most importantly: be happy!
