If My Boyfriend Didn’t Get Husband Privileges, How Would I Know If He’d Be A Good Husband?

He will be my husband someday, so why not treat him like he is right now?

If My Boyfriend Didn’t Get Husband Privileges, How Would I Know If He’d Be A Good Husband?
SarahBeth Harrill

I have seen so many things on social media, mostly Twitter, about this topic. People say that you shouldn't give your boyfriend 'husband privileges'. This means that you treat them as if you are married. Giving them special treatment isn't wrong and it shouldn't be labeled as that.

I give my boyfriend almost everything he asks for because he deserves it. He shouldn't have to wait until we are married to get special treatment.

We have this idea that the second we're married that it's this huge deal. Yes, it's going to be a big deal because we've been taught that marriage is what you do when you love someone like you never have before, and you are showing that person and the rest of the world that.

Marriage is exciting, don't get me wrong! But when it comes down to it, it's just a piece of paper. You have to continue dating that person throughout marriage for it to be successful.

I get my boyfriend snacks whenever he runs out of Hot Cheetos and Sprite. I get him little things every now and then just because.

I cook him his favorite pasta a couple times a week.

Just because I went to Target and saw something that reminded me of him, so I knew he had to have it.

We, as women, can't expect men to treat us like queens if they're not getting any special treatment in return. He will be my husband someday, so why not treat him like he is right now?

I have learned by giving him anything he wants and needs, how he will be the rest of our lives. I know what kind of husband he is, and I know that he doesn't ask for much. If I didn't give him these privileges then I would not know how he will be, and we would not be as close as we are.

He sits on a golden throne in my heart, and in life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
