It’s officially autumn. We all know what that means: cold weather that makes you want to stay in on a Friday and snuggle with your fuckboy that’s just only down the hall. There’s nothing that excites me more than cozying up in a sweatshirt with a boy you’re starting to cuff just in time for the cold weather.
Whether you’re going over to his dorm to just “hang out” or just sexile his roommate, there’s nothing more uncomfortable than when you both get to a point where you have nothing to talk about anymore. All that small talk is bound to finally run out after a while, right?
Rest assured, Netflix is here to distract you from any awkward eye-contact or any attempts at you making an uncomfortable move first. But let’s remember, some Netflix shows aren’t ideal to play when you’re with a fuckboy you hardly know.
Nobody wants a show that makes your boy…well…only watch that show…and nothing no one else (if you know what I mean). Here are the perfect 10 shows that are “fuckboy secure” to have on in the background.
1. The Office.
Not only is this my favorite show (and everyone’s favorite show), but this is a perfect icebreaker.“Who’s your favorite character?” is my favorite question to ask someone I either hardly know or know relatively well (except runaway if your fuckboy says someone like Creed).
This show is low-key enough to have on in the background, as long as you turn the volume down a bit so you don’t hear a joke that makes you laugh out loud just as when your fuckboy is about to put it in. All in all, this is fuckboy safe from any awkward sex scene or gross joke that’ll make you get turned off.
2. Parks and Rec.
This show is hysterical when your eyes are glued to the TV and you’re focused on what’s going on, but once you’re caught up in “conversation” this show can easily fade back into the background. Your boy will easily have the ability to drown this show out and focus on you because let’s face it, you are the star of his show.
3. One Tree Hill.
Your boy will be so confused with this show that he’ll have no other option but to make a move. If you’re not caught up in the latest drama in OTH, you’re lost, BUHBYE. Like yes, maybe Chad Micheal Murray will occasionally be a distraction for you, but he’ll at least be motivation to keep you going.
4. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
Disclaimer: this show isn’t ideal if this is your boy’s favorite show. If he knows every line and is die hard for Paddy’s Pub, maybe not the best for a “background” type of show. If you guys aren’t interested in it, keep it running. Occasionally, there’ll be some racist joke, but who’s listening?
5. New Girl.
When would your boy ever be remotely interested in this show? This show revolves around a girl who’s being revolved around 3 gorgeous males. This show that appeals to only the female population will have your boy practically begging for the remote your kiss. I can nearly assure you once Zooey Deschanel starts singing “Who’s that girl?” he’ll already be down your throat. You’re welcome.
