Why You Should Always Go For The Emotional Guy

I realize that my love life wasn't written by Nicholas Sparks.

Why You Should Always Go For The Emotional Guy
Total Sorority Move

“No guy will ever love me this much” my friend murmurs as she analyzes a Twitter video displaying a scrapbook full of sweet, yet totally cheesy, photographs of a couple that a very impassioned boyfriend made for a super fortunate girl.

Now, to put this Twitter personality on a pedestal and compare him to every other average boyfriend isn’t necessarily fair. However, what also isn’t fair is my other friends' responses to the video, commenting that “Twitter boy” is way too emotional, and she in no way finds his obsession over his girlfriend attractive. Considering the uttermost romance us girls are exposed to nowadays is two heart-eyed emojis commented under our selfie, or even complimenting our highlighter (but most importantly knowing what highlighter is), it is hard to distinguish between adoration and delusion.

It is such a novel concept to the majority of girls that when a guy is open to showing his more vulnerable side, he is in fact not a “pussy.” He is simply just emotional. I for one find myself to be smitten over a boy who will race me to a door to hold it for me, is a fan of the long “goodnight text messages” and, believe it or not, actually likes talking about his feelings. This is what I am attracted to, as sometimes you may have to put in a little more effort than normal to spare his feelings. He is genuine and that is something so hard to come by.

The emotional boy is always pushing himself to remember the small details; what outfit you wore to dinner last week, the song lyric you sang just a little bit louder than the rest of the song, or even remembers the cute pose you wanted to do for your Instagram photo. The emotional guy is flawlessly selfless and so beautifully compassionate.

So ladies, be open-minded to the nice guy. Accept him for his giving nature and don’t think twice about it. If even after considering all of this the emotional guy isn’t for you, fine; more nice guys for me!

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.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
