One thing I have learned over my 20 years of life is that boys can suck. They make you feel special for a little while, until something or someone better comes along. Most of the time they leave you feeling unappreciated and as if you're not good enough. Luckily, I have also learned another great lesson over my 20 years of life and this lesson is that dogs are way better than boys. If you don't believe me, here are 10 reasons why you should always choose your dog over a boy.
1. They are the best cuddlers
Everyone loves a good cuddle session ... and who's better to cuddle with than your loving dog? By cuddling with your dog you are getting a warm and fluffy pillow, who just wants to make sure you're comfortable instead of having to deal with the whole "spooning" dilemma.
2. They actually listen to what you're saying
No matter what you are talking about, your dog is listening. No more saying "Are you even listening to me?" because you know they always are. They might not understand what you're saying but they'll look like they actually care about what you're talking about.
3. They are 100 times cuter than boys
4. Wherever you're going, they want to come with
You could be going to the grocery store or the bathroom ... but it doesn't matter to your dog. They are just going to be happy by the fact that they are able to stay by your side. You could take them to the mall (if that was allowed, which it totally should be) to try on 50 different outfits and they would sit there the whole time with a smile on their face. Would a guy do that? No.
5. They are extremely loyal
6. They don't care what you look like
Your dog could care less what you're wearing or what your hair looks like. They won't judge you if your hair is greasy and your makeup is a mess. You could be wearing your best dress or your yoga pants and your dog will still smother you with kisses.
7. They will always protect you
8. They always know how to cheer you up
One special talent that all dogs seem to have is being able to tell when you're upset. They will come over to you with their tail wagging and lick the tears straight off your face. Your dog hates seeing you sad and will do just about anything to cheer you up.
9. They'll always be waiting for you to come home
You'll never have to wonder if your dog will be at home or if he went out to a bar with his friends. Your dog would rather lay at your front door waiting for you to come home than go out in the backyard to play. You'll always come home to an overly excited dog and honestly what's better than that?
10. They love you unconditionally
So the next time some stupid boy breaks your heart or makes you feel unappreciated, just hug your dog a little bit tighter and throw on some Netflix because they'll always be happy to just chill with you.
