Camia Rhodes2 min read
Do you know where you stand with your man? You don't want to assume that your relationship is heading toward marriage when he's just looking for a fling. That's why it's important to talk to him to really define the relationship. Of course, if you don't want to ask, you can probably figure it out on your own. Here are a few of the major differences between having a boyfriend and having a serious boyfriend:
1. He’s Bought You Flowers Vs He’s Bought You Tampons
2. You've Used His Bed Vs You've Used His Toilet
3. If He Knows Your Dreams Vs if He Knows Your Flaws
4. He’s Seen You Naked Vs He’s Seen You without Makeup
5. He’s Met Your Friends Vs He Knows Secrets about Your Friends
6. You Know His Schedule Vs You Know His Passwords
7. He Plans Next Week's Dates with You Vs He Plans Years into the Future
8. He Tells You about Big Decisions He Has to Make Vs He Consults You with Big Decisions He Has to Make
9. You Sleep over at His Place a Lot Vs He Has Space for Your Things at His Place
10. He's There for All the Good Times Vs He's There for All the Bad Times
11. He Knows Your Interests Vs He Participates in Your Interests
12. You Calls You Beautiful Vs He Makes You Feel Beautiful
13. He's Met Your Family Vs He Keeps in Contact and Makes an Effort with Your Family
14. He Always Makes You Feel Better Vs He Makes You Better
15. He Simply Listens when You're Being Irrational Vs He Calls You out when You're Being Irrational
