I wish for you a boyfriend...
who believes that chivalry is beyond gender equality and is an advocate of it himself
who would surprise you on an ordinary day, with a bunch of fresh flowers that he chose all by himself just because he knows that those are your favorite, and not because of the pressure of a commercialized Valentine's day celebration
who will take the initiative to quickly take that grocery basket from you even if it's still empty or carry your heavy shoulder bag turned laptop bag
who has a car, or who at least knows how to drive because it would really come in handy for both of you
who, in case doesn't have a car and can't send you home, would really look after your safety and lets you ride your bus or train first, seeing you off before he goes on his way home
who will never fight with you over food, and will give you that last piece of your favorite prawn meat from his plate
who will have the foresight to have enough money in his wallet, in case you both decide to have a spur of the moment dinner in a fancy restaurant
who will never see you as competition but an ally in everything
who can defend you from insults and can protect you without starting a fight
who will never put you down in front of his friends even if it's just for laughs
who never fights back physically and verbally even when provoked
who doesn't use the words stupid and shit in the same sentence or in every sentence
who can decide for himself, and for both of you without having to regret it immediately right after the decision has been made
who, after some time of being with you, would still miss you so much to never fail to sms and call you at least once a day when you're away, despite the cost of IDD calls/texts
who would love you with all his heart, and shows it not the way he wants it but the way you want to be loved... without any reservations
I wish for you all these and more... and yet, these would all be just wishful thinking... so I would have to pray for you then... I pray for you to have that one boyfriend who will be good to you and will be good for you through and through, in God's perfect time. But until then, stay happy being free!
Love,
BR
