It's funny. I never really thought of it like this.
Today, I said it outside, for the first time out loud. "I have a boyfriend"
And honestly? I felt kind of silly, like I was a six year old.
"Mommy, mommy! I made a new boyfriend!"-six year old Bri.
It sounds corny!
I've never really thought of it like that.
When you don't have one, it sounds like something you can't afford, that insanely big treasure you just can't reach.
Not the actual boyfriend- just the ability to say "I have a boyfriend"
And then, when you get one, if you really like him, you think "What a ridiculous thing to look forward to! Just being able to say 'I have a boyfriend' used to be my dream! Now what?"
Which brings me to my next subject.
Some people don't date for the person, mostly they date for either social reasons or because all they want is a physical relationship. That's a waste of their time, but it's their problem, so I'm staying out of it.
If you're going to date someone, make sure it's someone you really like, someone you really trust. Because at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what you call them, all that matters is that you have someone you really, truly like.
