Nothing is better than being involved in a healthy, loving relationship. Time spent with your significant other is always well spent. However, not every single girl can describe herself as a "relationship goal" or be the type of person that indulges in PDA.
I am nowhere close to being the perfect girlfriend but that's okay.
Just to make things clear, I am not trying to say I think I am an awful person but there are just certain standards I don't think I meet as a girlfriend. If you are this type of person, that is completely fine. Being human means having your own thoughts, emotions, and opinions. It is as simple as that. For starters, I don't see myself as this drop dead gorgeous woman who spends three hours just to put makeup on. Additionally, natural beauty is not my thing, but having a supportive boyfriend makes me feel more confident. Many girls feel that if they don't look flawless for their guys that they will be labeled as undesirable. Lacking self-esteem doesn't make you a terrible significant other, it just means you should learn to love yourself even more.
No girl should feel ashamed of not being publicly affectionate. Sure, it's nice to hold hands on a date or give a kiss goodbye but I am the type of girlfriend who likes my own space and to actually socialize with a group of friends instead of clinging to my boyfriend's side. I love my boyfriend so much I do not feel the need to show others how passionate we can be. Also, it is just simply uncomfortable to have other individuals watch two people make out. There's a time and a place for intimacy, it should usually stay in a private place. Plus, just because I am not oozing over every trait of my boyfriend, like giving him compliments or taking 20 Snap Chats with him, doesn't mean I am unsupportive. I often tell my partner how wonderful he is, gives him motivation, and of course unconditional support. Our relationship is not a showcase for other people to judge. I am not going to waste time blowing up my Instagram feed with pictures of him when I can use that time to have a movie night with my boyfriend.
Humor. I can't imagine why some girls or guys are so serious when it comes to dating, especially around people that are extremely funny. Making inside jokes and creating laughable memories make a relationship worthwhile. Who cares if your boyfriend messes up your hair or embarrasses you a bit? Trust me, even when my significant other gets sick of my bad puns, we still enjoy each others company. I will never apologize for trying to have a good time with the ones I love.
Every girl is different when it comes to relationships, there are several levels of comfort, affection, and more. I can't promise my current boyfriend or any future lovers that I won't wake up with messy hair, cry when I feel underappreciated, or relentlessly talk about my passions. However, as long as I have a trusting significant other and I am thoroughly happy, there is no need to feel the need to make up for qualities I may lack. My boyfriend is dating me because he obviously sees a logical, smart, funny, and overall great woman.
