So if you're reading this, you probably have an interest in striking up a conversation with my boyfriend. If this is the case, I have a few things I'd like to tell you first.

I'm here to let you know that you should go for it. He's funny, helpful, and understanding. So, if you need a quick laugh, are looking for some advice, or just need someone to talk to, he's definitely a good choice.

If you want to learn more about him, you should. He's interesting and has a lot of great stories to tell. I've heard all of them a million times, and I'm sure that he wants someone new to tell them to.

If you think he would find something interesting or funny, you should send it to him. Everyone needs a pick-me-up in their inbox every once in a while.

If you want to make plans to hang out with him, do it. He's a lot of fun and I can't blame anyone for wanting to spend time with him.

He likes talking about conspiracy theories and video games and the universe, so any of those things would probably be great conversation starters.

If you just want to talk to him, you should. He's got a ton of really interesting and insightful things to say. He's smart and considerate and open-minded, so he really makes for a great conversationalist.

If the reason that you want to talk to him is out of romantic interest, that's okay. I get it, and I trust him enough to be the one who says no, so I don't really have to worry about other girls trying to take it too far. I know he'll never let it get there.

You probably thought that this was going to be me bashing any girl who wants to talk to my boyfriend. Well, that's not how I feel at all. I trust him to talk to anyone he wants, and I have no problem with girls talking to him.

I understand jealousy and I understand insecurity, but what I don't understand is a girlfriend who doesn't allow her boyfriend to talk to other girls, no matter how innocent the conversation may be. If you can't trust your boyfriend enough to talk to other girls without going too far, or to say no when another girl might go too far, he shouldn't be your boyfriend.

So, yes, next time you want to talk to my boyfriend, do it. He's great to talk to, and everyone deserves someone like him in their life.
