1. A Little Security

‘Feeling wanted’ is hard wired in girls. Many consider having a boyfriend as a validation of their attractiveness. As if street-full of salivating men wasn’t enough, that one gawky dude, makes you feel secure.

Not a great reason, surely, but if he’s your esteem-booster, then please have one.

2. To Walk The Dog

You’re lucky if you’ve landed such a sweetheart. Especially, if he matches his morning walk time to your dog’s poop time. Please, secure him with a chain leash. He’s a rare breed.

3. Anyone is Better Than No one

Some girls will continue to be in a bad relationship rather than end it. You’ll keep looking at the upside, even when the bottom has fallen off the relation. Why? Old and bad habits die hard. And, to some extent, that craving for security mentioned in point 1.

4. I Won’t Deny It, I Love Attention

Every girl wants a ton of text messages and a ton of calls. Yes, girls love attention. It gives them sense of self satisfaction that they are wanted.

5. He Looks Good On Me

To some being boyfriend-less makes them feel like an ugly duckling. Even if they look at their friends relationships and do not want that for themselves, there is still a feeling of being unattractive, a loser. Of something being wrong.

6. To Zip Up Those Clothes

Saves you the comical, time-wasting dance you do infront of the mirror every morning.

7. For Actually Nothing But To Kill Loneliness

A boyfriend is needed to hang out on weekends in my house. Doing absolutely nothing but just chilling.

8. To Come To Weddings With Me

Dear Lord, no more weddings where I’m stag. I’m done clinging onto my couple friends, or standing by the bar as if it’s a pick up joint and not a wedding.

9. Sex, Yes You Heard It Right!

A boyfriend who will do to me that thing I like very much. You know what I mean? Yes that one!

10. Somone To Take All My Crap And Still Surprise Me

He's the punching bag to vent out my frustration on, and he doesn't even move or defend. In fact, he talks back, puts an arm around my shoulder, and says: "where do you want to go after this."

11. To Get Me Invited To Couples Dinners

What goes on there? Why do all my couple friends shut up everytime I walk in while they’re talking about couple dinners at one of their places. What goes on these dinners? If they’re planning to invade Mars, I really would want to be part of it. But for that, I need a co-pilot.

12. To Make My Birthday More Special

I need a guy to buy me flowers and expensive dinners on my birthday. Not that my last birthday was boring, I just need a constant birthday partner. Yes, I’m the black hole of pampering.

13. For Travelling I Need Company

Road trips are fun. Luxury trips, moreso. But solo travel is not my thing. The only thing more beautiful than travelling is travelling with the right (read fun, easy going, adventurous, etc.) person.

14. Compliments No One Can Give You

A boyfriend will tell me how nice your bum looks in that yellow dress. Anyone else who says it (other than your girlies) is just creepy. If you’ve chosen rightly, he’ll say things to you that will make Jennifer Lopez and Salma Hayek look like washed up starfishes compared to you. And sometimes they just won't stop till they've sild that yellow dress off your bum. 

15. To Help Fix Stuff

For all your broken showers and fused bulbs. And the office presentation which you wrecked. They can be incredibly handy with these odd jobs.
