So I'm being told recently that I'd be a great boyfriend (which is evident from the fact that I'm single, mind you), and I've been figuring out what exactly it is about me that makes me oh so amazing.
1. Good boyfriends can cook.
Yeah, that's right. If you can make dinner for your lady, apparently its a huge point of awesome.
2. Chivalry isn't dead. Anyone who says otherwise is a cavern of lies.
Yes, some girls don't like all the "pay for dinner, do this do that" stuff. Or at least they say they don't. Here's a secret... Most of them do. Open doors, pull out chairs, offer to pay for things like dinner and movies. Some people think it's sexist, I think it's common decency. If I'm out with anyone I open doors for them. I've been known to pay the check when a few friends and I go out to eat. I tend to pay for food more often than not when out with girls I know. It's a nice gesture, dammit.
3. Compliments.
If you think someone looks nice, tell them. A few kind words go a loooong way to making a day brighter for someone. There's nothing wrong with telling a girl she looks beautiful, and there's nothing wrong with being observant enough to say you like something she's done with her hair/makeup/outfit.
4. Be Observant.
This is a good one for everything in life. Pay attention to the little things, as those details are often the most important. Little changes can mean big things.
5. Listen.
Pay attention to what they say, not just that they're saying it.
6. Be Legendary.
It no doubt helps to have friends like mine, who are very good at playing to my strengths when talking about me to others. No joke. Half the people I know thought I was too good to be real, and that I was just a myth.
