7 Reasons Dating A Country Boy Is Better Than Dating Any Other Boy

I'm sorry to all the other boys out there, but I'll be sticking with my country boy.

7 Reasons Dating A Country Boy Is Better Than Dating Any Other Boy

Call me biased if you want, but I think that country boys (specifically the southern ones) are the BEST men out there. Granted, I've been dating mine for seven years, and I think he's incredible, so maybe I just found a good one. But let me be the first to tell you if you've never dated a good ol' country boy, that there are so many things that make them special and make them the kind of guy that you're going to wish would put a ring on it.

From their politeness to the way they treat their mama, there are so many reasons that a southern boy is one you should keep around:

1. They're polite

They say please and thank you, hold doors open for you and everyone else, and they say "mam" and "sir." They have better manners than your average boy.

2. The accents

Don't get me wrong, I love Scottish and English accents more than you know, but there is just something about a man saying, "Yes mam, I'm doin' aiight, how y'all been?" that gets me. Sorry, but it's not up for debate. Have yourself a chat with a country boy from the south and try not to swoon because I bet you won't be able to.

3. They're protective

A country boy is going to protect you no matter what. Whether it be from someone saying something wrong about you or during a scary movie, he's going to be there to wrap his strong arms around you and tell you that everything will be alright.

4. They're (usually) THICK

Listen. I know we all have our types and our preferences. But from what I've seen, and using my boyfriend as an example, country boys are thick in the best ways possible. A lot of times, and don't ask me why because I have no idea, they're fit while still having big shoulders and arms and big hands (I have a thing for hands, @ me).

I'm sorry, but I like my men thick. If they can use it as an adjective for us, ladies, we can say it about them, too.

5. They know how to have fun

I've been on some crazy adventures with my country boy. They want to hunt, fish, ride four wheelers, go mudding, go to the racetrack, go hiking, have a bonfire, etc. They want to get dirty and have fun while doing it (please excuse the innuendo).

6. They love their families and their friends

County boys are ones you can honestly think about one day settling down and having a family with because relationships are so vital to them. Traditions and gatherings are important to them and something they frequent. They're also ALWAYS there to step up when they need to be, and they're willing to do anything for someone they care about.

7. They love their mamas.

And let's not forget the one of the most important parts; their mamas have taught them respect and how to love you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
