25 Quotes About Pisces Zodiac Signs - Bustle

Image
Pisces zodiac signs have an earned reputation of being emotional, intuitive, and deeply attracted to all things mystical. These daydreaming creators have a knack for creating dreamscapes out of the mundane, so if you feel your head is in the clouds or you're having vivid dreams, you probably have Pisces season, which falls between February 19 and March 20, to thank. These zodiac signs are imaginative and romantic, and we can take notes by following along with their whimsical ideas.

They're the ultimate dreamers whose reveries can add magic to ordinary situations — for a Pisces, no goal or am...

Perspective | Carolyn Hax: Is it okay to meet up with a male friend and not tell your jealous boyfriend? - The Washington Post

Image
Carolyn Hax is away. The following appeared Aug. 3 and 26, 2007. Hi, Carolyn: My boyfriend is excessively and unreasonably jealous, insecure and mistrustful of other men — be they friends, exes or strangers on the street. I'm wondering if it's okay to meet up with a (male) college friend without telling my boyfriend. When I made these plans, the relationship with my boyfriend was strained. Now that he and I seem to be on stronger ground (for the moment), I'm in the difficult situation of either dumping my friend or awkwardly inviting my boyfriend along. Contrary to my boyfriend's suspicions, my relationship with my friend always has been purely platonic. Because I'm not technically doing anything wrong, does the adage "What they don't know won't hurt them" hold true? I just want to avoid fighting with my boyfriend about spending time with a friend, even if he is male. — Are There Any Little White Lies? Are There Any Little White Lies?: Curious. Do...

Here's Where You Can Watch All Of The Percy Jackson Movies - Looper

Image
Luckily for Disney, the company gained a strong franchise in "Percy Jackson & the Olympians" when it acquired Fox. Because of the shift in ownership, both "Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" and "Percy Jackson & the Olympians: Sea of Monsters" are currently, and for the foreseeable future, available to stream on the Disney+ service with a general membership. While this in itself is good news for fans of the "Percy Jackson" franchise, Disney announced even better news early last year — that a new TV series adaptation of the books is officially in the works.  While the original two movies put a lot of effort into creating a fun, entertaining adventure for the well-known characters, many people — Riordan included — had issue with how Percy's story was adapted. Because of this, a lot of fans have been pushing for a new remake for years now. Last May, Riordan announced that he had pitch meeting...
