I know there are a thousand of these floating around the internet, but that's because boyfriends are a truly special breed. They see us at our best, and believe me, they see us at our absolute worst. Although they know we love them, boyfriends definitely deserve a special thanks for all of the truly special things they do.
1. For being the designated photographer at any event or outing...
They know they're going to be the one stuck taking a million pictures of you and your girlfriends before going out, yet they still come anyway!
2. ...and the designated driver!
Although you insist that you won't drink anything this time, your bae knows just how much you love your Pink Moscato, and doesn't mind being the chauffeur for you and you wine drunk gal pals.
3. For putting up with your social media addiction.
Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook — you love to post about your guy, and he endures every selfie, check-in, tweet or snapchat filter you make him sit through. Although he complains, he allows you to indulge in your obsession with him because, come on, he must like it a little bit, right?
4. For putting you in your place.
Although there are times where being a bitch is totally necessary, it's important to have someone around that will keep you in check and call you out when need be.
5. For thinking you're beautiful even when you look like a dying homeless man's toe.
Sweat pants, hair tied, chillin' wit no makeup on — add a little pimple cream, glasses, and maybe a retainer, and that's what your man somehow still finds sexy each day.
6. For knowing exactly what to say.
OK, he might not always know what to say, but when he does, he does. Whether it be making you smile, or laugh, or just being genuine and honest, your boy always knows the way to your heart.
7. For surviving Sephora with you...
Although he may have a killer headache, he still tries to understand the difference between a highlight and a contour, and why eyebrows sometimes seem more important to you than being on time for something.
8. ...and Bath And Body Works.
He still doesn't understand why on earth something named Vanilla Midnight Twinkling Moonlight Path of Sparkles (or whatever you call it) is crucial to have in body spray, lotion, candle, hand sanitizer AND shower gel form, but he stands and waits while you smell each one twice just to make sure it hasn't changed since last time you were in.
9. For being as equally obsessed with Netflix as you are.
...because what's better than a night spent watching scary movies, documentaries, or just about anything else you can find while snuggled up on the couch with a bowl of popcorn.
10. For being your best friend.
You laugh together, cry together, and do pretty much everything in between together. Nothing is off limits between you and your BF. He knows the latest gossip (or at least pretends to listen) about everyone, he keeps tabs on who's on this week's shit list, gives all the best advice AND he's pretty much the community boyfriend when it comes to your friends as well. You are like two peas in a pod — and you wouldn't have it any other way!
