Misticles

i wanna see what traits different people associate with the words boy/girlfriend.. should be interesting..

the traits i associate with boyfriend are:

the one who makes me laugh the most
the one who loves me the most
the one who cares about me the most
the one who can make me hurt the most
the one who can make things better when im down
the one who stands up for me no matter what
the one i can talk to about anything
the one who is always there for me
the one who i can connect with sexually

A boyfriend is someone who calls you their girlfriend and vice versa.

Well the thread is called "What is your definition of a boy/girlfriend?"

As for traits... meh, whatever floats your boat I guess.

Someone who makes you laugh, who you always feel comfortable talking to, who respects you and who knows when to shut up.

the person that has the power to completely abuse your emotions and feeling of self-worth if they choose to do so, which is what commonly happens when the term boyfriend or girlfriend no longer suits them.

All the things on your list misticles can be covered by friends/family.

Sadly the words 'soul mate' are overused, but it about sums it up.
A strong friendship foundation and deep sexual connection wraps it up for me.

Someone you love / Someone who loves you back

But obviously not in the family sense, you sick fúcks.

Misticles

well said, well theyr the most important traits i think. they sure do occur with family and friends. ya mighnt be able to find all these traits in one family member or firends but ya can in a bf/gf. thats what im gettin at.

Myself and some male friends would exchange I love you's from time to time, but I wouldn't regard myself as their girlfriend

its a bit more than that.

you know you could associate those points with someone you are good friends with too.

Does your "boyfriend" know your stance?

True, but you are missing sexual compatability

the one with tits....

tman

ehm... someone who allows you to play with their naughty bits without paying

slipss

I'd have to say if you love them and they love you and you want them to sleep with only you and you with only them then thats pretty much it, everything else is just superfilous (or the similar sounding word with the same meaning)

Totally agree, you hit it on the head.

my boyfriend is the one who I can completely be myself with and who always makes me feel special and valued.

The person I stick my flag in is mine.

@ST--> Love you.

Aren't we over-thinking this a little? If it feels good do it! If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

He’s my boyfriend cause he understands me when I’m in my “insane” moods. Takes one hell of a man understand me when I’m like that. He just "gets me" more than anyone else i reckon.

Simple and True,
I dont think it is necessary to validate my relationship publicly. The connection between me and my g/f is the most private thing in my life. I think i'd be more likely to give an opinion in "what makes a good boy/girlfriend if I was single (objective) or questioned my love for her (insecure)

Bravestarr where is your signature a qoute from..i think i recognise it but i cant get it
