So you met a boy and you like him. Congrats.

Many girls, at some point in a relationship, quickly discover they are not the only woman in their man's life. Afterall, the best lions have a lionness.

Unfortunately for you ladies, some of these guys never outgrow this bond and depend on their moms way too much – even into their college years. In the most severe cases, they will lean on their mother well into their 20s.

Here are 10 signs you're dating a momma's boy:

1. He doesn't do laundry. And he doesn't know how.

And why would he? His mom has been doing it for him his whole life. And still does. That's why he loves her so much.

2. He is not much of a cook.

Again, his mom cooked 90 percent of his meals through high school, still cooks for him when he's home from college, and even sends him back with plenty of food to get by.

3. He calls and texts Mom every day.

You: “Why are you laughing so hard? Who are you texting, your boys?"

Him: “It's my mom!"

4. He is a ham.

He loves to be the center of attention. Why wouldn't he be? Mom has been telling him he's special and the best thing on earth for at least two decades.

5. He is a gentleman.

It's not all bad. You're dating a guy who knows how to treat women because the most important person his whole life is, in fact, a woman.

6. He loves to cuddle.

Classic momma's boy move.

7. He and his Mom have inside jokes.

Maybe one day you will too. But they've been working on material for years.

8. They are not very handy.

Again, they're just used to having everyone do everything for them – not just mom. But Mom started this trend for sure.

9. He loves to shop and he is a great gift-giver.


His mom used to take him on all her shopping trips, so naturally, he likes to shop. And he's weirdly good at it.

10. He is sensitive. And you'll fall for him because of it.

You are not his first serious girlfriend. And he's good at the emotion game. Maybe a little too good. Momma's boys are notorious for being “relationship people."

Good luck with that.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
