Boyfriends Can Be Best Friends, Too

Spending time with your boyfriend shouldn't be a crime.

Boyfriends Can Be Best Friends, Too

If you know me then you probably know how much I hang out with my boyfriend. And if you are like me, you understand how frustrating it is for people to constantly remind you how much time you spend with them. Well, let me tell you something. When you honestly enjoy being around your significant other that much, you want to spend time with them. So, what is the problem with that? Some people don't understand why I am with my boyfriend so much.

When I think of a best friend, I think of someone who's kind, funny, honest, caring, and so on. A best friend is someone I enjoy having as company. Some people forget that a significant other can be your best friend - the one you go to for everything, the one you stand by through thick and thin, the one you have the most fun with.

So, I raise this question, why can't I spend time with my best friend? It is not a crime to want to spend so much time with your boyfriend. Why can't I spend time with my boyfriend like you do with your best friend? After all, he is my best friend, as stated before.

My other friends? I didn't forget about them. Nor will I. I spend time with them as normally as friends should. However, my boyfriend is my best friend and chances are I'm going to be with him most of my time. But, I do spend time with my other friends, and I am capable of making time for them and only them. Also, I am capable of doing things without my boyfriend.

So, stop putting people down who actually enjoy being around their significant others so much. If they are truly your best friend, you have the right to spend time with them whenever. You are allowed to be happy.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
