If My Boyfriend Didn’t Get Husband Privileges, How Would I Know If He’d Be A Good Husband?

He will be my husband someday, so why not treat him like he is right now?

If My Boyfriend Didn’t Get Husband Privileges, How Would I Know If He’d Be A Good Husband?
SarahBeth Harrill

I have seen so many things on social media, mostly Twitter, about this topic. People say that you shouldn't give your boyfriend 'husband privileges'. This means that you treat them as if you are married. Giving them special treatment isn't wrong and it shouldn't be labeled as that.

I give my boyfriend almost everything he asks for because he deserves it. He shouldn't have to wait until we are married to get special treatment.

We have this idea that the second we're married that it's this huge deal. Yes, it's going to be a big deal because we've been taught that marriage is what you do when you love someone like you never have before, and you are showing that person and the rest of the world that.

Marriage is exciting, don't get me wrong! But when it comes down to it, it's just a piece of paper. You have to continue dating that person throughout marriage for it to be successful.

I get my boyfriend snacks whenever he runs out of Hot Cheetos and Sprite. I get him little things every now and then just because.

I cook him his favorite pasta a couple times a week.

Just because I went to Target and saw something that reminded me of him, so I knew he had to have it.

We, as women, can't expect men to treat us like queens if they're not getting any special treatment in return. He will be my husband someday, so why not treat him like he is right now?

I have learned by giving him anything he wants and needs, how he will be the rest of our lives. I know what kind of husband he is, and I know that he doesn't ask for much. If I didn't give him these privileges then I would not know how he will be, and we would not be as close as we are.

He sits on a golden throne in my heart, and in life.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
