Boys are not going to run to your house at 3am with flowers. They aren't going to scream that they love you down the hallway. They aren't always going to randomly text you to tell you how beautiful you are. They probably aren't going to sing and dance with you in the rain. Yes, they cheat and lie, some of them. But so do girls. Stop setting these high fucking expectations and get over it. amirite?
I mean it would be nice for at least some of those to happen (like just getting flowers in general.), so that can be a semi-expectation since most get their girlfriends flowers for Valentines. But out of the blue in a blizzard when he lives 15 miles away on his bike at midnight? That's completely unrealistic. That's why I don't believe most LGMH stories, because no one in their right mind does that type of thing anymore. And girls who write those are completely stupid and will never get a boyfriend if they expect that level of romance.
People on Dear Blank Please Blank and Six Billion Secrets need to realize this.
Not to mention the millions of Facebook groups. :P
Screw DBPB. They get all pissy when I post sexist comments. I'm glad they hate me.
You should format this into a DearBlankPleaseBlank post, and submit it onto there.
I'd be insanely happy with a guy who just loves me for me.
Some girls are realists. Yes, we fantasize of having some overly romantic boyfriend, but we don't expect it, and I'm sorry for any guy who has had a girlfriend that expects that of him. It is quite ridiculous.
Just like some guys are realists. Yes, we would like to have Natalie Portman as our sex partner, but we date women based (mostly) on personality and would never sleep with anybody who we aren't at least dating.
YESSSSSSSSSSSS.
THANK YOU.
if i had a boyfriend like that id say "back the fuck off, and stop being such a facebook group" :P
"stop being such a facebook group". That is my new catchphrase.
POTD. Please.
My thoughts exactly. I second that motion!
I third the motion.
Fourth. The current one is lame/wannabe inspirational fragment myspace quote.
I vote than Anthony replaces today's POTD with this one.
yes because today's is dumb and I don't like that chick
Yes.
4th.
fifth. Some girls need to get over themselves.
i 6th that notion. btw its a "notion" not "motion", i think. xD
It can be either, depends on what's being proposed. But that doesn't change the fact that I don't know which to use :$
There were two fourths. SO you were the 7th. I'll be the 8th :)
hooray! :D
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!
I agree. It's unfair to expect that much of someone, not to mention doesn't that seem ridiculously clingy? Like it's okay and extremely sweet from time to time, but if it was all the time it wouldn't be special anymore.
yeah, it'd be kind of weird if every time there was a blizzard my boyfriend biked over and told me i was beautiful or something. xD
Hahaha. "You're so beautiful. Here are some flowers." "...I WAS SLEEPING! WHAT THE FUCK!" haha.
hahaha!!! XD i'd be in my jammies and have messed up hair and everything. but according to Facebook Boyfriend, he'd still think i'm "beautiful". :p
Oh Lord, cue the Bruno Mars music...
CAUSE YOUR'E AMAZING....JUST THE WAY YOU ARE <333
That comment made me LOL....
...at night. ;D
Spongebob reference?
Shell yes.
If a boy showed up at my house at 3 AM just to give me flowers, I'd be pissed.
I'd be embarrassed and kind of creeped out.
I'm eating chips.
Are they Doritos?
They're doritos.
Can I have some?
Sure, the bag of doritos is magic, so I never run out of chips. Therefore, I am always eating chips.
Yum. Where did you get this magic bag?
Tia.
Oh, she did it again did she?
Yep.
Sometimes I think fantasies like that are the reason the divorce rate is so high. People go into a relationship expecting more than what's realistic and when it doesn't live up to expectations, they can't deal with it.
I seriously really love this post. I want to graffiti it all over Facebook.
In my opinion, if you're not planning on giving someone a huge romantic surprise you shouldn't expect one. However, my Drama teacher has told my class some amazingly cute romantic stories about her and her boyfriend. Personally, I want a practical relationship, not one based on gifts.
I think I would prefer a boyfriend I can be totally stupid with.... More have fun. I had a bf who gave me flowers all the time and it kunda got annoying....
Kinda like the whole tossing pebbles at a window thing. If someone did that, I'd probably end up calling the cops.
Anthony, wherever the hell you are, this needs to be POTD someday. By that I mean NOW!
you reeeeeaaally like this post, don't you? Haha.
Love is an understatement. All I can say is: asdfgjkleryikbcdjAFJSbfghGhsgjnjdHGshhGfFhgfhcz?!?!$
it'll be okay, we're going to make it through this. Haha.
Ugh so did I. I know exactly what you mean it's just stifling.

I saw this on Facebook literally like two seconds ago, and was about to post it.
Guess you beat me to it :)
It's on facebook now? I NEED TO FIND THIS GREATNESS!!!
Two seconds an exaggeration it was more 6/7 hours ago.
Haha, you can't exaggerate AND use the word "literally." Silly Jacketta.
(Baconnoisseur):I'm sorry! D:
This is tru, but I'm one of those guys that does all of it. regardless, the point still stands.
...And you're sure you exist?
He probably has unicorns as next door neighbors. Which is to say, no.
Ha, it's probably true.
Happy new year is happy.. And true.
i think if someone did that to me... i'd be really uncomftorable and I'd most likely punch them. :O but thats just me
The world just needs to understand that girls are bitches just like guys are douches. All most of us want is someone who makes us happy by being them (even if they are nerdy or whatever) instead of by giving shitloads of presents and being so internet cliche. Personally, I hate getting presents.
Getting presents makes me feel really awkward and uncomfortable.
Dude, this couldn't have been said any better.
that would be awesome to makeout in the rain. ps. im a boy
also agree this should b potd

Prime example.
that's exactly what I was thinking of! haha.
i sent a girl i had a crush on 6 dozen roses in biology class. on valentines day. she didnt care. "thanks for the flowers, theyre really pretty, but ur not worth me time" ouch.
What a bitch. She could have let you down nicely and asked if you wanted to be friends.
My boyfriend has actually done some variation of each of these things, and not in the lame way it's portrayed. It's not impossible to find someone who does...however it's probably why we've been together 3 years and I still feel like it's the first month in some aspects :p
i think it would be cute if a guy did it like once and you say you'd be pissed and all that but secretly you'd love it, my boyfriend would randomly text me and say i was awesome it would make my day. :)
i would do all of those except lie and cheat. but noooo the only girls im ever into are already taken.
No offence....but if any guy came to my house at 3 a.m., I'd be pissed. Not to mention creeped out.
