Despite popular belief all of us single girls don’t sit around with a pint of Ben & Jerry’s sobbing about how lonely we are. The fact of the matter is not all girls WANT a boyfriend. Truth is there are actually a lot of things us girls want more. What are these things we could possibly want more than our Prince Charming you ask? Well here you go, a glance into the single girl’s mind. Here is a countdown of the top 6 things girls want more than a boyfriend.
6. Self -Esteem
Every girl at some point in their life has had low self-esteem. In fact the average girl goes the majority of her life hating almost everything about herself. We tell our friends we look fat, we need a second and third opinion on all of our outfits, we call ourselves stupid and ugly and constantly criticize ourselves. And all the time we wish more than anything to have more confidence, to believe in ourselves, to love ourselves. That is something a lot of girls struggle with. The truth is we would all rather have some more self-confidence than a knight in shining armor.
5. Netflix
Well come on this is pretty self-explanatory; I mean there is always something to watch, no matter what mood you’re in. You want a romantic comedy? Maybe a wedding show? And action movie? An informative documentary? It’s got all that and more! Netflix is like every girls boyfriend. He’s always there when you need him. He doesn’t care if you’re wearing sweats and no make-up, he actually prefers to stay in with you and cuddle on the couch with a big bowl of popcorn.
4. Money
Being a girl is incredibly expensive, clothes, shoes, bras, razors, waxing, nails, make-up, tampons. It all adds up very quickly. So do you know what I want even more than for a boy to express his undying love for me? A million dollars, actually make it 5, the new spring clothing lines will be coming out soon.
3. Career
We all have career goals, and most of us are in school because an education will help us reach our goal. But personally I would like some assurance that I am not working my but off for nothing. I want to do something with my life, I one day want to be my own boss, and you know what? A boyfriend isn’t going to help me get there.
2. Travel
Rome, London, Australia, Iceland, these are just some of the places I will be traveling to someday. I can tell you right now, there is not a girl on the planet who doesn’t want to travel. And you want to travel now while you’re young, before you get all settled down, and start having kids and stuff. Besides, if you don’t have a boyfriend when you go abroad then you can have a fling with a foreign boy who whispers sweet nothings in your ear.
1. Food
Just, food, all the food. Chinese food, Pizza, Mac&Cheese, Chipotle, Panera, anything with high sugar and fat content will do. You name it, we’ll eat it. I can tell you right now, food is a constant thought on every girls mind. It is every girl’s greatest companion, chocolate is always there, cake will never judge. Most girls would agree, they love food more than they love boys. Because the truth is no boy can satisfy you the way Panera Mac&Cheese can.
