Trust Me, Do These 8 Things For The Girl That Loves Sports

Do you have a girl that loves sports in your life? Here's some advice.

1. Buy her merch from her favorite team

Whether it be a jersey, mug, or a simple sticker, help her rep her favorite team!

2. Stop being condescending

Giphy

Honestly, this could be a whole article in itself. In fact, check this one out, it's spot on. Basically, treat her like you would a guy that likes sports because there's literally no difference.

3. Acknowledge her love for sports

Giphy

Bring up her favorite sports, teams, and players in conversation. It's a great leeway to talk about it and really get to know her thoughts and opinions as well as showing her you know what she likes.

4. Have good discussions

Giphy

Whether it be new team acquisitions or plays in games that happened years ago, she probably has an opinion... and it might not be the same as yours. Discussing controversial ideas not only allows you to get to know her point of view but also helps you to know her as a person.

5. Teach her more (in a genuine way)

Giphy

She loves sports. She knows a lot about sports. But she doesn't know everything there is to know. Through discussion, you can teach each other things. Flags, formations, coaching styles, past teams, etc. There are a lot of rules. There are a lot of sports.

6. Watch games with her

Giphy

It's easy time together and you can see her love of the game in action.

7. Don't expect her to know every little detail

Giphy

Don't go quizzing her on obscure facts from the 80's and then bash her when she doesn't know them. If it was thrown back on you, it's doubtful that you would measure up either.

8. Ask her about her opinions

Just like with basically anything, asking people their opinions on literally anything lets them know that you care. Ask her who she likes and why... it'll go a long way.

If a girl in your life likes sports, acknowledge and cherish it and watch and talk about sports all day because she won't mind.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun.
