6 Ways To Tell If Your Boyfriend Really Loves You
Megan Branch

Everyone thinks their boyfriend loves them the most and shows it in the best way. But, there are just a couple sure-fire ways to tell if he really does truly love you. It's one thing to be polite and occasionally go out of your way for someone, but does he do these things?

1. He brings you McDonald's sweet tea as a surprise

Or your drink of choice. Tea from McDonald's doesn't cost much and there's usually a McDonald's within 15 minutes of someone, so this doesn't seem like much. Just the fact that he does it continuously and without being asked, just because he knows you'll probably appreciate it is a sign he loves you.

2. He yells your name across campus


No matter how shy you are or how much you don't want that much attention called to you at once if he sees you across campus, he's going to yell for you. He will probably also yell "I love you!" across campus at you. He's got to let everyone know! If you really hated it he'd stop, but he knows you'll just blush and walk away.

3. He lets you listen to one song on repeat in the car for 2 hours

If your favorite artist comes out with a brand new song the day you happen to be going on a 2-hour car trip with him, someone who truly loves you would let you listen to it for the entirety of the ride. Bonus points if he doesn't even complain about it.

4. He gives you cute nicknames

I'm not talking about nicknames like "baby" or "sweetie." I mean if he tries so hard to come up with an endearing nickname for you and ends up just calling you jello cup because that's the only original name he could think of. At least you'll be guaranteed to be the only one with that nickname.

5. He takes fake candid pictures of you

Or he just suffers through pictures, in general. If you're the kind of person to retake a picture over and over until you look good in it, your boyfriend will be right there with you, maybe complaining, but taking the pictures with you, or of you, nonetheless.

6. He tries to surprise you

He's tried, on multiple occasions, to surprise you. Although he gets too excited and ruins the surprise by giving it away too early, it still means a lot and you appreciate the attempt.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
