No one wants to be labeled as needy. Although I consider myself extremely independent, I do sometimes find myself asking for things I am very much capable of doing on my own. Sometimes I like the help, and sometimes I’m just pure lazy. Having a great boyfriend is a blessing and a curse. This is because no matter what you ask for help with, they will always be willing to help you and sometimes that can make you even lazier than you were before. But, no girlfriend will ever admit how needy she really is.

But, for now, let's just thank our boyfriends for all their help with our many, many needs.

1. Wanting “good morning” texts, but never asking for them.

You’ll always hint at it, but you’ll never actually ask for it. It would make it way too obvious if you blatantly asked for a good morning text. Also, it would take away from how sweet they are. *Hint* boys

2. Occasionally asking them for room service.

There are some times when we don’t want to actually make the effort to get up and make food, or even go outside to pick up delivery at the door. So, for these times, we may ask for food to be delivered directly to us, even if that somewhere is still curled up in bed from the morning.

3. Constantly hugging him.

Sometimes we just need a hug. And sometimes that hug is 20 minutes long.

4. Free back scratches on demand.

Those tough to reach places are made a lot easier with someone to scratch them for us.

5. Begging them to give you a massage after a long day.

Massages are always a boyfriend’s favorite to receive, but never to give. But, sometimes our days are hard and tiring, and we need a little pampering. Thanks for always giving us a massage, even if its just five seconds long.

6. Their willingness to go on tampon runs despite being embarrassed.

No boy actually likes going to the store to pick up “lady things.” But, no women likes going to the store to pick it up when they can be comfortable in their bed suffering through their period. So, sometimes we have to force them to take one for the team.

7. And taking us out on dates.

It may be once a month, or once a week, but sometimes we just want to go out and have a nice classy dinner with our significant other. Dates become more few and far between as we get deeper into a relationship, but they are no less important.

8. Forcing them to go to family parties with you.

All I can say is I'm sorry and thank you.

You may be responsible for all of this… but you will still never admit to being a needy girlfriend.
