More Than A BF

An attempt to explain why you're everything to me and more.

There’s something peculiar about you that sets you apart from the rest. From the rest, I mean every conceivable group I can possibly categorize the people in my life into. You’re different from my friends. You’re different from my previous boyfriends. You’re different from most people I acquaint myself with. I’ve found myself more and more frequently wondering about what exactly it is that makes me see you in an entirely different light.

You’re different from my friends. I consider you one of my closest friends, my best friend even. You know so many things about me that not even my closest female friends know about. We support each other as friends do and know how to set being overly romantic aside to work together as good companions. Maybe it’s because we’ve been intimate in ways friends never are. I don’t mean intimate in that sense, I mean intimate in that we’ve laid on the same bed and talked about things both silly and controversial until the wee hours of the morning. We’ve seen sides of each other much more easily concealed from friends. We’ve been in each others presence during both convenient times and not so convenient times. I consider you one of my closest friends and despite that, I have a hard time classifying you into my group of “best friends.”

You’re different from my previous boyfriends. This may be incredibly cheesy but to me you’re so inexplicably different. You’re assertive yet gentle. Opinionated yet considerate. Masculine in nature, yet absolutely sensitive. I’ve dated a handful of guys before, but none with the balance of character you do. I’m constantly finding new things to like about you simply because you keep giving me reasons to. You find pamper me in ways I don’t deserve, yet you’re the first one to reprimand me when I need someone to set me straight. I’m very grateful for the kind of impact you’ve had on my life, and I will never be able to tell you enough how appreciated you are.

So really, I don’t know what you are. It’s hard to put in words yet I attempted to anyway. None of this really does describing who you are to me any justice, nor does simply calling you my boyfriend do so. You truly are something beyond what I’m familiar with. You’re everything from a fantastic partner in crime to a best friend, and maybe that’s exactly why you’re so much more than just a boyfriend.

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
