How to Keep a Boy (From a Semi-Expert)

Well, I kind of lied when I said “How to Tell if a Boy Likes You (And Other Real Boy Advice)” was the last part of my “How to…Boy” series. But I also didn’t expect to get in a relationship, so you’ll have to forgive me. I’m reaching my three month anniversary and someone suggested I make a post about how I stay in my relationship. And why not? I have some tips and tricks up my sleeve, and I’m sure some of you are curious. Now it’s time to share! How to Keep Your Boyfriend In

19 Things I Don't Understand

1. I don’t understand why tight clothes make girls feel sexier. 2. I don’t understand why a girl who loves sports is less “feminine.” 3. I don’t understand why being loud and obnoxious makes a boy a “boy.” 4. I don’t understand why girls can’t be one of the boys without being decidedly masculine. 5.

How to Tell if a Boy Likes You (And Other Real Boy Advice)

The Dating Game

Contrary to popular belief, my knowledge in the male gender is about…zero. I don’t have a boyfriend, go on dates, etc. And it’s all because I’m perfectly happy not participating in The Dating Game. Don’t get me wrong, I think guys are great. I could go on for hours about Logan Lerman and Dylan O’Brien, but I won’t because it will most likely bore you. But I don’t think I need a boyfriend to be complete in life. It’s all about being confident in your own person and not needing
