1. Looking at Other Men
You're in a relationship, but you're not dead. That means you're going to notice attractive men. As long as you don't act on your lust, it's A-okay.
2. Wanting Attention
You're not needy for wanting attention. Your boyfriend is supposed to be there to give it to you.
3. Wanting Time to Yourself
You don't have to be by your man's side 24/7. In fact, it's healthier if you two spend some time apart.
4. Being Scared of a Serious Relationship
We're all a little scared of getting serious, because we don't want to get our hearts broken. Of course, if you push those fears aside, you can still have a happy relationship.
If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.
5. Getting Annoyed by His Parents
You're not always going to love your boyfriend's friends and family. You just have to learn to deal with them.

6. Getting Jealous
It's natural to get jealous when your boyfriend talks to other girls. Just don't give him ridiculous rules about who he is and isn't allowed to associate with.
7. Telling Little White Lies
If you lie to your boyfriend about liking his new outfit or haircut, don't feel bad. Everyone tells those little white lies.
8. Fighting with Him
Arguments are unavoidable. As long as you deal with them in a responsible, mature manner, there's nothing to worry about.
9. Turning down Sex
You won't always be in the mood to have sex. Your boyfriend should understand that.
10. Having Male Friends
Having male friends doesn't mean you're a horrible person. It's entirely possible to be friends with the opposite sex without cheating on your partner.
11. Having Different Hobbies
You've heard that opposites attract. That means you don't have to love everything that your boyfriend loves. You're two different people, after all.
12. Being a Bad Cook
It's the twenty-first century. Women don't have to be the ones to cook anymore, so don't feel bad if you can't whip up a nice meal for your partner.
13. Giving Him Orders
We all get a little naggy after dating someone for a while. It's part of a relationship, so don't feel bad about it.
14. Taking a While to Text Back
You should be there for your partner when he needs you. But that doesn't mean you need to drop everything in order to text him two seconds after he texts you.
15. Wanting to Stay in
You don't have to go out on exciting dates every weekend. Sometimes, you'll have more fun staying in and watching Netflix.
16. Annoying Him
He won't always be in the best mood. Some days, you'll get on his nerves. Don't worry, because the next day, things will be back to normal again.
17. Being Selfish
Even though you love your partner, it's normal to do the things that'll benefit yourself. It doesn't make you a bad girlfriend. It just makes you human.
All of these things are completely normal, so you shouldn't feel bad about them. Chances are that you're an amazing girlfriend that your man is lucky to call his own! Do you consider yourself to be a good girlfriend or do you think you need some work?

LrHx01: And they have a 4th car
LrHx01: That was so shitty of him like really shitty
LrHx01: Every time he was mad at them I calmed him and told him not talk that way just because he's mad I always had so much for his parents and the one time I really said something because I was hurt he told me to slow down I won't get over that I mean it's not
LrHx01: Yesterday I had such an argument with my boyfriend over his parents.. I've never said something bad about than I always treated them extra nice because for me that important to have respect for his parents. So they did stuff like not allowing him
LrHx01: But I said that I didn't like it and that it was wrong and that I'm hurt
Pl0x: It's the 21st century, every independent person should know how to cook.
LrHx01: Not anything more
LrHx01: His mom always drives with the Mercedes SUV and his dad with a car extra for his work
Jessica: I personally don't believe you should ever give orders to your partner. They're not there to do as you please. Rather than telling your partner to do something I believe you should nicely ask no matter how long you've been together. And you should expect the same in return as no one enjoys being nagged at and told what to do
LrHx01: I was so mad at him
