7 Romantic Gestures Every Guy Should Do
Wondrlust

There are some people on this planet that think romance is dead, but I disagree. Maybe the standard of romance has just changed over the years. Whether that's a good thing or not is up to you, but I've come up with a solid list full of romantic gestures that would make pretty much any girl swoon in 2K16. Take your pick of my fine selection and I can guarantee positive results in 30 days or less. (No refunds).

1. Bring your girl roses.

I'm starting ya'll off with a classic. You really can't go wrong here unless roses killed her family and she told you that on the first date which is really just a lesson in listening. Seriously, if you don't pay attention to your girl whenever she talks you're just cruising for a bruising. It also may be important to figure out what kind of flower she likes instead of going for the cliche, but in my experience most of us are fine with just plain ol' roses.

2. Buy your girl a pizza.

The way to a girl's heart is solidly through her digestive track, regardless of what you learned in Bio 1 last semester. The cardiovascular intricacies of love are fueled by calories and the amalgam of cheese, bread, and pure deliciousness cannot be beat. Seriously try it. The second you order a girl a pizza (or surprise her with one) her world will light up a little more. Major brownie points are headed your way, pal.

3. Get your girl's morning classes cancelled.

To be honest, this one has never happened to me and I'm not sure it's even possible. Maybe I just included it in this list for wishful thinking purposes. You don't know my life. What you do know, however, is that everyone despises morning classes and class getting cancelled feels like glitter looks. Trust me. If you're ever in the neighborhood and see your girl's morning class professor maybe start up a conversation, maybe spike his or her coffee, maybe perform some light kidnapping. Whatever, man. You didn't hear this from me.

4. Put the chill back in "Netflix and Chill".

Do you have any idea how many hours of Netflix there are? Not only is binging together a great couple activity, but maybe you'll develop a bond like no other- the illustrious "our show" relationship. Once you develop a ritual of watching a certain show with your girl that show is forever tainted with the remnants of you. That sounds kind of creepy, but Netflix is a serious business. It's not for jokes.

Don't even think about trying to interrupt her favorite season with "chill".

5. Attend concerts with your girl.

Fact: People love music.

Secondary fact: Concerts are the best way to share the experience of music with a girl you like.

Concerts embody the experience of your favorite tunes at a static place and time that can never be felt again like it was when you were there. If you share that with someone else then that person is also part of that moment. It's classic association, people.

6. Pet animals with your girl.

If the harbinger of your affections likes animals even a little bit, this will happen at some point. You should remember that no matter what the animal is, she may want to pet it. Snakes, birds, cats, etc are all fair game here. If she volunteers at an animal shelter, she's really going to be big about this one.

7. Avoid running away for as long as possible.

The girl you're into or dating might be a little crazy. Maybe you suspect that she is actually a lizard person who drapes human skin over her form every morning, but you love her anyway. It's fine. A guy facing a girl's flaws and not judging her, losing interest, or literally running away can almost be considered a romantic gesture in this day and age. That's setting the bar kind of low, but you know what I'm talking about if you've been there.

At the end of the day, we should all look at our romantic interest and appreciate them for who they are because that's what matters,

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
