2 Ways To Know Someone Is Right For You

On the wings of love James Reid Nadine Lustre


If there's one question that plagues us and even generations before us when it comes to relationships, it's probably this: How do we know that a person's right for us? We're not really sure how either. All we know is that there's no single way to find out because most of the time, when he comes, you won't even know that the person you've been waiting for has already arrived. But there should be some sign to know that he could be good for you, right? For this, we asked two of our Candy Cuties to share with us what they think about this dilemma, their personal signs on how they know that a girl is right for them. Hear their thoughts below, and don't forget to share yours in the comments as well.

From Our Readers: Love Your Heartbreak

There's a quote attributed to American model Bess Myerson, "To fall in love is awfully simple, but to fall out of love is simply awful." And isn't that true?


When we are faced with heartbreak, with rejection, or when your loved one leaves you for someone else, we believe that the world has ended. We shut ourselves down and start monologues about how men are mean and women are evil.


But these actions don't actually help us in the long run, do they? So what can be done when faced with heartbreak?

From Our Readers: The Goodbye I Never Got To Say

Chances. Funny how I have lost so many chances.


Time. Crazy how I had time.


I was given so many chances to tell you what I feel for you. Chances to tell you that you always had a place in my heart and that you will always be that one person who would have an effect on me. I always thought I had time, time to gather all the courage to face you, time to actually let go of my fear and just confess everything.

The Story Behind Candy's New Logo

In case you missed it, we revealed Candy's brand new look, which you can see in the February issue (out now!) with the gorgeous Kendall Jenner on the cover. We talked with Candy's EIC Sam Potenciano and Art Director Steph Yapnayon all about the big change. Plus, artist and the hand letterer  Abbey Sy, who's responsible for the beautiful new logo shares some tidbits about what went into making the new Candy.

After 17 years, why the big change?
Sam
: I feel like Candy has grown so much since then (in almost every aspect!) and it just felt right following Marla's big redesign last year. If you notice our look is a bit more streamlined, a bit cleaner and more minimal, and it just felt like the logo, being the most representative image of the brand, should reflect those changes as well.
Steph: Candy has grown up in so many ways since its first appearance. And while it's sad to say goodbye to an old friend, it's always nice to make room for change to further improve yourself. I feel that this new logo will represent this new generation of Candy Girls more.

How YA Dystopian Movies Help Us Appreciate the Little Things

Aside from letting us escape to realms where kick-ass teens rule, where the world has turned upside down, and where anything is possible, YA dystopian movies also help us appreciate the things we take for granted in our everyday lives. Take Cassie Sullivan (played by Chloe Moretz) in The 5th Wave, the latest YA dystopian book to hit the screen. Before the first wave of alien attacks, Cassie was a normal teenager who had normal concerns: surviving PE class, getting home before her curfew, and talking to the boy she likes without melting into a puddle of goo. "When you're in high school, just about everything feels like the end of the world," she says. Until the end of the world does happen, through a series of deadly waves meant to wipe out the human race as efficiently as possible.
