Boyfriends are not all they are cracked up to be. Boys, in general, are rambunctious, smelly and insensitive creatures. When in a relationship with said creature, life can become hectic. One’s own turmoil mixed with a boyfriend’s troubles can cause excess stress and frustration. Thus, I have compiled a list of anything and everything better than a boyfriend.
1. First and foremost, a dog
Dogs are known for their loyalty and love for their humans. Dogs give you kisses when you return home after a long day and endless cuddles on cold days.
2. Friends
Especially your girlfriends. They are always down to trash talk the opposite gender. They won’t complain when you want to go shopping, watch a chick flick or take a cute staged picture.
3. Food
And lots of it. No one will be there to take your leftovers, so you keep chomping on that pizza, girl.
4. Netflix
Get lost in McDreamy’s eyes or cry over The Notebook with no shame as you Netflix the night away.
5. Treat yo self
All that money in your paycheck can be blown on that new MK purse.
6. Not shaving your legs
No one will touch your legs except you. No need to waste time in the shower shaving your legs when you could be practicing hitting that high note like Mariah Carey.
7. Channing Tatum, Ryan Gosling, Joe Manganiello…
Need I say more?
8. An education
That pretty face with a big brain is going to take over the world. School contributes to stress enough as it is; no need for a human being to add to this.
9. Family
Family will support you through the good times and the bad. Blood is thicker than water.
10. Independence
You are a strong, independent woman and don’t need no man. In the wise words of Sammy Adams, "Single doesn't mean I'm lookin' for somebody."
