This is why having a good man in your life is a Plus plus

Because some things are just better with a buddy (whom you happen to be dating).


There's no doubt that being a single lady can definitely be fun, but that doesn't mean that you turn into some boring twosome when you enter a new relationship. In case you need some reassurance while your single girlfriends are busy going on Grouper dates,
Going from single to in a relationship with one little click.....It may  feel as good now as it did when you were in college. Plus, all those "likes" and comments on your new relationship status totally give you warm, fuzzy feelings.
That's when your new sidekick comes in. Whether you're bringing on Netflix together or taking a nap outside in the park, it's totally normal to just enjoy each other's company in silence and peaceful harmony.
Here is Just a few things to note:

You've got someone to tell you that you look better than you think you do.
Don't get me wrong, you are gorgeous. But you all have those moments where your hair is doing that weird flipping out thing and you can't get your eyeliner to go on right. That's when we smart men  chime in with some variation of, "Well, I think you look smoking hot." And all is right with the world.

You'll save a ton on spa services.
Seriously. From full-body massages to scalp-scrubbing shampoos, when you're in a relationship you've got access to feel-good treatments you would have to pay for or DIY as a single lady. He'd probably even paint your toes if you asked nicely (and have low upward expectations). Obviously you'll have to think of some way to return the favor. I'm sure you can think of a few.

You might discover how much you actually love ‘Video Games .’
How would you know that Daenerys Targaryen was your dragon lady soul sister if it weren't for a man's  obsession with the TV show? And even if he isn't into sword fighting, there are probably tons of things he likes doing that you would have never ( never ever) tried if he didn't make you. And that is a good thing.
He'll play nurse, when you are sick.
Even if you haven't vowed to be there in sickness and in health just yet, he's ready to help you through a hangover, the flu, or that epic UTI. And he comes bearing your favorite sick food. Score 3 pointers for the good guys.

You have a legit excuse when you can't handle another night out at a bar with your girls .
Tuesday   booze-night? Nope, you've got a hot date with your partner and they're ordering a pizza. Boom.
Speaking of ready and willing, he's usually just that.
What's better than waking up post-sexy dream next to your special someone? At that moment, pretty much nothing.close to each other time can't be share with your girls, unless you swing that way.

You can delete your Tinder account.
No more swiping, oops! unsolicited penis pictures, or guys who do not look like they do in their profile. Ugh,
You get to split the cost of some things.
Yes, you might be sharing literally everything, especially if you live together, but that sacrifice comes with a
50 percent off discount. Woo hoo! 
You don't have to deal with creepy guys at bars.
Your single friends shouldn't give these dudes the time of day either, but just one touch of your smartphone brings up the screensaver of you and your man and sends those guys on their way faster than you can say, "Sorry, I have a boyfriend. and he can bench press 350 lbs as a warm up"


You totally have an excuse to have a wedding-themed Pinterest board and  Houzz.com account and now you subscribe to Jetsetters email deals.
It doesn't matter if your relationship is two weeks old or has been going strong for two years. When you're in a relationship, those mason jar lanterns just seem a little bit more doable and a little less cheesy.

You get free therapy.
that time of the month? He hears you and searches the Nutri-bullet website  for green smoothies that will give you instant relieve. Or will give a comforting shoulder to rest your head on.

You're in an awesome, supportive relationship, because you're free to vent about work stress or whatever  drama with your friends without judgment (in moderation obviously). Maybe it's not exactly professional help, but your man will listen and probably offer some  advice. Bonus: This guy is into  YOU--and hopefully you can't say the same for your therapist ( who touches you thigh with clammy hands.) <smirking>
