Being in a relationship with a car guy is a little different. It means that he will need time to work on his car, he'll spend money on his car, and you will probably be taking his car when you go out. For some, that's time wasted. But for me and many others, we love it. There are a lot of things that factor into a relationship with a car guy, from constant car shows to being careful around any part of his car. Here are 25 things you should know about dating a car guy.
1. Seriously, car shows. And meet ups.
I mean it. If it's not a car show, then it's a meet up. Every weekend, random week nights, and even out of state.
2. You'll never go to a mechanic again
Not only will he fix whatever is broken for (probably) cheap, but he'll keep checking just in case.
3. You'll always hear when he arrives and when he leaves
Because there's a good chance that exhaust will be loud.
4. He'll be passionate — very passionate — about his car
Very... very... passionate.
5. You won't be eating or drinking in the car
Accidents happen, but he won't risk it in his car.
6. You'll never drive again
He'll always want to drive.
7. Don't. Slam. The. Door.
You'll hurt it!
8. Get ready for car shows and YouTube videos
YouTube is full of endless car videos, along with the discovery channel
9. He'll have more photos of cars than you
But per every 20 car photos, there may be one of you!
10. He'll probably want you to learn stick
Because who drives an automatic?
11. Cleaning the car is a process
Wash, rinse, repeat... over and over...
12. Get ready to park in the back of the parking lot
Get ready for that daily exercise, because he will take no risks around other cars and instead will park in an empty spot all the way in the back with at least four empty spots each way.
13. A lot of money will be spent on anything car related
Say goodbye to saving any money!
14. It'll be slightly easier to shop for him
The gift is simple: something car related.
15. He'll constantly talk about cars, even around your non-car friends
He'll never stop talking about cars, even once he's lost everyone's attention.
At least he's passionate!
16. You'll help him with his project cars
Even if it's just passing him a tool.
17. Some project cars will never get done
Some are just a lost cause and a loss of money.
18. His car will have a name
And you will respect it.
19. He will name every nice car on the street...
20. ... and you'll need to learn, too
21. Holding hands while driving? Nope.
You can't hold hands and drive a stick at the same time.
22. He thinks everyone on the street wants to race
It doesn't matter who it is.
