In every teen movie, the girl always falls for the popular football player guy. At some point in every girl's life, deep down, she wanted to be the girl to date the star player, but the movies never show you the downside of dating the football player.
1. Football Season Sucks
Unless you really like having alone time in a relationship, football season and the months leading up to football season sucks. Your boyfriend will constantly be at practice or in training. Practices and workouts and field days will become their life and you will have to mold your schedule to fit into theirs, and if you’re not very good at that then you probably won't be seeing much of your significant other unless it’s on the field.
2.God Forbid They Lose A Game
Losing a game is equivalent to the world ending. Be prepared to deal with a sad, emotional, mess of a human being. No matter what they say there is very little chance that their mood will change after they lose a game. I am all for being an emotional support system but one of the hardest things to do is cheer up a football player who lost their third game in a row.
3. Being Their #1 Fan Takes Work
I mean sitting on a cold bench for some hours takes real dedication. Sitting on a cold bench in the rain takes even more dedication. At that point, you’re probably going to start praying the game ends early. If you’re not a fan of football these will be the longest hours of your day. I’m sure you care about your boyfriend quite a bit but watching them run up and down a field will get old really quickly.
