7 Signs When To Wife Him Up

We all know the saying, "wife her up." You know when your girlfriend does something so wonderful you'd never consider living without it? You say, "Imma wife you up girl." Maybe not those exact words, but you get my point.

However, when your boyfriend does something you can't live without you can use the same expression. Yes, I've officially made "wifey" androgynous.

In my share of relationships, I've never been the one to make the perfect sandwich, nor was I ever good at having beer and dinner on the table when he got home from work. So I think that when I find my guy who's a 'wifey' I'm going to immediately "wife HIM up."

There are little things that make him 'wifey' material, and it's okay if your guy doesn't show these traits... After a while, it'll just come naturally to them. Much like many people thinking that the woman's role is to get married and have children will come naturally to her. Essentially making them 'wifey' even if they never wanted to go in that life direction.

Here are five of my favorite 'wifey' traits shown by my significant other, the main ones that let me know when to "wife him up."

1. Daily "good morning" texts AND snaps.

He's letting you know he woke up and thought about you first. In all forms of communication? "Wife HIM up"

2. Set routine whenever I say, "I'm cold."

Ok, this one isn't a personal experience of mine... BUT I have seen it, and I instantly thought, "wife him up." All my friend had to say was, "It's cold," and her boo thang shut the porch door, grabbed a blanket, and put it around her body. Like seriously?! How sweet, it just showed me that I need someone who will keep me warm and happy.

3. Brings home the dinner... Even if it's 2 am.

So like I said before, I've never been good at making sure dinner was on the table. But at the same time, I work too. I like coming home at 11:30 after work and knowing that he'll be on his way with food soon because I was too tired to get dinner after work.

4. He can see if you've had a day and need a drink.

I personally don't drink. Like on surveys when they ask, "how many times do you consume alcohol a month?" I almost want to put zero because that's more accurate than the other choices. But sometimes you need a blue moon with two orange slices because you "can't even" today.

5. He likes to vacuum.

I hate hate hate vacuuming, so when my guy pulls out the vacuum my wifey meter goes off the charts.... that and he does the dishes.

6. He gets up at for every noise.

If I'm sleeping and a noise wakes me up, I'll be up for the rest of the night. Get you a man that gets up for any noise, even if it's just Aya eating.

7. Endless "I love you's"

When you're with the person you can see yourself with forever, you can never hear "I love you" toooo much.


Thank you to all the people who have helped me see what I deserve for my 'wifey.'

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
