The Boyfriend List

I was going through a journal of mine when I came across something I wrote some few years ago. I had titled it "My Boyfriend List" and when I read through it, I laughed at some of the things I wrote but some of things, well, I'd still maintain. I think everyone has their own list of someone they would like to be with. Whether you take the time to write it down or it's just there in your head, but you still have it. Here goes mine:

  • Christian. Non negotiable.
  • Tall. Or at least my height
  • Someone who respects me
  • Smart. I like brainy guys. Like very brainy guys #Nerds. Something about nerds...
  • Funny. I want someone who can crack me up, who has a sense of humor.
  • Employed / Looking for a job. Hardworking
  • He needs to like children.
  • Someone who dresses well. Thank you.
  • Eats well. I understand some diseases are hereditary but to actually go looking for them is just plain ridiculous.
  • Someone who takes care of himself. Personal hygiene.
  • Someone who understands sarcasm.
  • Someone who can cook for me would be nice
  • One who listens to me. I don't think I talk that much anyway.
  • Someone who doesn't mind traveling, seeing new places - leisure travel.
  • Someone who can play with me - sports, anything! I do get competitive though
  • Someone who is my friend. One I can talk to about anything and everything
  • Someone who wants to spend time with me. Go out with me. Take me to nice places - spoil me.
  • I'm not a crazy sport fanatic for example I love football, I'm #TeamArsenal and #TeamBigBullets but please, I will not spend my afternoon watching it on the telly. I can only last 10 minutes on there, after that my mind just wanders off. Take me to the game and I will watch.
  • Someone who smells nice :)
  • Someone who isn't afraid to show that I'm his girl. I'm not some dirty secret that needs to be kept hidden all the time.
  • He should like dogs.
  • He should text me and call me every now and then (twice a day atleast lol).
  • He should actually care about me. Yes.
Well these are some of the things I have on the list, believe me there are many lol but I have found that as I grow older, other points on my list are not that relevant as they seemed. I know that you just have to compromise on some things because even I'm not perfect - it would be heaven if someone fits all of these though hahaha.

When Your Friends Won't Get Over Your Ex

We all have been through bad relationships and bad break ups. Some of which seem to hurt forever. You spend your days (and long nights) thinking of what could have been. You will give anything to get back together with them. When people tell you "It's gonna be alright.." it makes it even worse because well, it just doesn't seem real. You think you will never get over that person but then a few months (sometimes years. Yes I know) later you're smirking at your old delusional self....thinking what could have possibly gotten over me to say such unimaginable things?! We eventually do get them out of our system but sometimes, our friends don't get over them. You have that one friend or two that will call you whenever she runs into your ex and will give you a very detailed encounter - one that you could really do without. Friends most times let us know whenever they run into our exes but as time goes by all that information just gets fazed out - th...
