Type 1: The "I-Got-Mah-Homies-Fer-LYFE!!!" Type.
Okay, I know it's important to have good, solid friends in your life -- friends you can depend on, friends you can trust, and those that you absolutely love (as friends) -- but nigguh please, do you have to put them before everything else, and I mean EVERYTHING else? It's great that you're "there for your homeboys" and that you guys are "brothuz fer life," but come on now... be sensible -- they shouldn't rule your life or take priority over everything and everyone. Please remember that you do have real life family members that you probably should be thinking about as well, and well since we're typing different types of BOYFRIENDS, this would mean that you have a GIRLFRIEND as well. Yes. A Girlfriend. WOW What a concept huh? Pretty sure you forgot about "her" because you're so wrapped up with spending your entire day doing absolutely NOTHING productive with your "home boys" other than roll around your "pad" in pajama wear and play on PS2/PS3/Wii/xBox or the hellish World of Warcraft and occasionally stopping only for a bathroom or cigarette break! And you'd think after spending almost ALL day long with your friends, you'd at least miss the girlfriend for a second or two or God forbid, THINK about her, and reach over and take two seconds -- TWO FREAKING SECONDS -- to call her just to say "hi" or tell her that you're thinking about her... No~ of course you can't do that because that's "unmanly" and your homeboys are gonna say that you're lion king whipped. -rolls eyes- Boys, if you're already in a relationship with your friends, then why do you insist on being in a relationship with a girl and then treat her like crap and as if she doesn't mean anything to you, only to break her heart and make her feel WORTHLESS? ...and you say girls cause all the drama? Please...
Type 2: The "Gamer" Type.
Already kind of foreshadowed by the aformentioned "hellish World of Warcraft" detail on Type 1, but yes, I'm talking about the ones that are married to their gaming system. True story: My friend was in a long term relationship with a guy since she was in her teens, and they didn't have much problems in their relationship in terms of being faithful to one another -- until World of Warcraft came along. The boy completely became absorbed in the game -- he quit his job, his life pattern flipped upside down because every waking moment he was on the PC leveling up his character like madness, and he spent more time chatting with his gaming buddies on WoW than his girlfriend (or his real life "homies" for that matter). She tried to give him his time and space to enjoy his hobby, thinking it was merely just a hobby... but No, he had already begun a new relationship with the game and she had suddenly become de-moted in the list of important things in his life... He stopped going out much with her, he became more and more aggravated as time went by because he saw her pleas to spend time with her as "nagging" and "bitching"... Needless to say the relationship ended, and badly I might add... Now, call me foolish and old-fashioned, but I still believe that a real live breathing and moving girlfriend that you "claim" to love can do so much for you than a game that you install on your computer by running a CD/DVD on it... And please don't think I'm a girly girl chick that's anti-gaming overall -- I play MMORPGs myself and I have played WoW as well.... and I'm not saying these games are bad -- but they just hit the mini cooper when they start to replace everything in your life... starting with your very hurt and sorrowful girlfriend whom you've emotionally damaged because of your lack of respect for her needs. Boohoo.
Type 3: The "I Am God" Type.
May I start with, Oh My God.
There's a saying I've heard before -- that all men think they're God, and God just happens to be the only male that's right. I laughed my ass off when I first heard this, and then I was overwhelmed with the insanity of that statement. Granted, it's meant to be a joke, but it puts a light on the types of guys that just think they're a little too precious. This type includes those guys that think whatever that comes out of their mouth is funny and intelligent -- and sorry to shatter your cube of fake reality boys, but often times if others aren't really laughing, it ain't all that funny.... and if others are going "huh...? wha--" with this confused and weirded out look on their face, it ain't all that smart. Oh, and just because some may laugh at what you say, don't think it's funny -- they might be forcefully laughing just to get you to shut up and discontinue your long possible contingent line of not-so-funny-but-oh-so-retarded lines. This type also includes the famous Narcissists -- the ones that believe that they are God's gift to earth and to mankind. I had an ex-boyfriend that fit this criteria -- and oh my God, I didn't have the heart to tell him that he wasn't. These people are also very unnecessarily competitive, and usually this brings tremendous stress to the people surrounding him -- especially the girlfriends because 1) although these types tend to have more flaw than "normal," they think they're perfect in every way, and expect same type of "perfection" from their not-so-perfect girlfriends, and 2) these types also tend to be the ones that belittle the girl in a relationship. Equal rights? Women's voices? These concepts are imaginary concepts for them, and though they "pretend" to respect these, they most likely will pass off 70% of their girlfriends' ideas and thoughts by waving it off and saying "pfftt WOMEN." Do I need to remind you, that you were birthed by such "women" that you belittle, and many times these "women" are the ones that educate you in school (Majority of teachers prior to University level are women), and it is these kind "women" that are letting you get away with your cocky misconceptions? Oh, and really? You're not that great in the package department either.
Type 4: The "Promiscuous" Type -- a.k.a the Cheater.
If you think some girls are just pure bitches and are emotionally and physically promiscuous, please remember -- it takes two to tango. Sure, you may think, "but the poor innocent guy's been tricked and lied to and seduced by the evil witch!" ... C'mon.. honestly? Do you really believe that? I'm not defending the cheating girls here, but I'm just saying -- everything goes both ways. If girls can do it, there certainly are boys that can do it as well. This type of boyfriends obviously have some characteristics of the above mentioned Narcissists, because you really can't cheat on your girlfriend with other girls and feel comfortable enough to flat out lie about it unless you believe in your heart that you deserve to have harem of girls because you are oh-so-godly. This type of boyfriends also may seem like the perfect ones -- affectionate, showers you with gifts, sweet talks like no other, and keeps himself in good relations with your other girl friends. But be advised of any folly that may occur here -- Sure, he may be friendly to your friends because he honestly wants to be in good terms with them, but it could also be that his intentions aren't so very pure: instead of seeing them as your friends, he may be seeing them as his "potential friend," if you catch my drift. Be cautious with guys that fit into this category -- it's good to indulge yourself in his sweet shower of love, but every once in a while it might be wise to see if there are any other girls around him that have the same sprung-look on their eyes or carry similar perfume.
Type 5: The "Too-Little-Too-Late" Type -- a.k.a the Moper.
This type of guys aren't bad -- they're not addicted to something else other than their girls, they usually aren't some jobless lowlife that rolls around doing nothing, and they certainly don't cheat on their girlfriends -- but they can be very neglective. Guys think girls expect soooo much from them in a relationship so they stress out or just don't care at all, but please remember that girls are a lot like plants -- we don't need to be overly smothered with nutrients or what-have-yous (although they WILL make us happier and healthier), but we just need the right amount of caring and minimal affections that show us that you care and love us... that we're important to you. Lots of girls aren't gold diggers or affection whores, so please don't pass off every one of us as those types of girls and be unenthusiastic about our relationship. This type of guys are the ones who get dumped a lot as well, not by bad reasons but because the girls just feel really neglected and feel drained from the relationship. At the moment of breaking up, however, they usually come around and some manage to talk their girls into staying with them only to repeat the previous cycle... but most others end up losing the girl and thus begins the Emo stage. They listen to depressing break up songs, only sing low-keyed rap songs and/or r&b break up songs when they go to karaoke, and their MSN ID, Myspace tag, or AIM profile usually consist of something along the lines of "I miss you..." or "Come back to me" and etc etc. They also write poems/lyrics/blogs about how they treasured the time they spent together and how they wish the girl would find someone good, and that they've learned a lot from the relationship... but many cases, their new relationships end the same way. Some just may never learn... -sighes-
Type 6: The "OMG-Where-You-At!?!?" Type -- a.k.a The Paranoid.
Ever get the feeling you're constantly being watched, stalked, or followed? Well, you may be suffering from having a boyfriend Type 6. This type of guys are what you would call "Obsessive" -- the ones that most certainly need to know where you are, who you're with, WHY you're with them, 24/7 of your life. They will call you nonstop, they will text you endlessly, leave you messages on messenger when you're offline, and even their AIM away message will be something like "_____, call me. where are you?!" etc. Soon all methods of communication as you know it will be flooded by his obsessiveness to have you in his palms -- literally! At early stages of dating of course, you may think "aww~ he cares about me sooo much~" or "awww~ he wants to be with me allll the time~" ...well wake up and smell the stinky bed sheets, girls, because his actions may not have anything to do with how he feels about you; if anything, it might be his desire to control his life and everything pertaining to it oozing out onto your relationship like sticky super glue. Gone extreme, they will become stalkerish and psychotic, and start to screen your phone, your email, and your chatting history. Oh you think I'm kidding? How do you think the numerous cases of acquaintance rape/murder cases occur for women all over the country? I'm not gonna put every worrisome guy into this category and stick with with the label of "Psychotic Control Freak" -- but yes, there are guys that can and do try to control every aspect of your life; from the little things such as what you order at a restaurant to the big things, like what you want to do with your life, who you associate yourself with, and where you want to go. -shudders-
So.
Is there such thing as perfect boyfriend?
Of course not.
But when two people that are genuinely in love work to compromise and understand each other a little better, they can have a perfect relationship -- perfect by their standards and means, and not by anyone else's. Perfection isn't set by some one person's standards and is universally understood -- it is something you make as you go along... and it can only be acquired in a relationship when you (the boyfriend and the girlfriend) are willing to put the other before yourself and be just a tiny bit more considerate than before.
So best of luck to everyone in love,
and those that are looking for love, don't lose hope.
As much as there are horrible heart breakers out there, there are the few good men (and women) that are worth risking your heart out there for.
Girlfriend: hey honey, where are we eating for our 2 week anniversary?
Me: Um, anywhere you like?
Girlfriend: Its going o be great, when are you going to pick me up?
Me: Well, um my mom comes back from work at 7. She can't take us too far though, gas prices high and all.
Girlfriend: So whose parent is paying this time? Mine are yours?
Me: Well, I wanted to be the gentleman so mine I guess.
Girlfriend: Awww so sweet! Ok see you later!
Rofl! I laughed at that myself. Sorry, but this was particularly funny due to a past experience. I was a third wheel on my friend's date. It was fun until his mom had to come pick us up. It was so quiet and awkward the whole ride. I tried to break the silence and asked random questions like "So Robert's mom, how long have you been driving the stick shift?" and everyone would join the conversation all interested and stuff ahaha.
3. Is she a man or a girl? type
The first thing you guys probably thought of when you read this one was, "Is he making fun of girls that look like guys?" No I am not, shallow Hal. Obviously I meant the personality portion since I was talking about the type. Well, anyways, they are the ones who don't act the stereotypical girl. Such as gossiping a little bit (which is like oxygen to some girls), couldn't care less about make up, they don't care if you act like a gentleman or not, they can break a guy's heart and feel no remorse, they were born without tear ducts, but it's ironic because they are the ones with natural beauty. For example, my friend's girlfriend is this type. She is really pretty, but she never gets emotional or anything, she's a MAN. My friend would tell me how she would never hold his hand or offer him a hug. He saids he feels like the girl in the relationship because his the only who gets affected by those small things. (Plus, she's the only who can drive.. she once kicked him out of the car for telling her the wrong directions.. rofl) I told him to grow some balls which he obviously lacked. He answered no and went back to kissing her feet. Stupid noob.
4. Mother girlfriend type
A major epidemic today. They seem to be growing in numbers these days. I don't know why it is a trend these days that girls suddenly want to act way more mature than they have to be for their age. Honestly ladies, we already have a nagging mother but now this? They believe it's their duty to redirect and lavish Dr. Phil quotes on our lives. There are several problems with this. First, is that we have nothing to talk about anymore. We guys usually are the ones who listen (or pretend to anyways) what girls say, like their problems and dramas, but now they want to hear us talk. We are men, we have no problems we cannot handle. So yea, no more conversations. The second problem would be that whenever you cuddle with them, we are going to have this weird feeling that they are going to tell us a bedtime story. That's a turn-off. I don't want to imagine how the ugly duckling made friends when I am holding my girlfriend. So ladies, please cut the crap, we really don't need you to kiss our boo-boos or call us doing school to make sure we didn't forget our lunch. If we wanted a motherly girlfriend, we go for the real stuff, your mom.
5. Perfect girlfriend type
Sorry boys, but after reading this, I am going to have you drooling and dreaming your girlfriend was expendable. So! What is a perfect girlfriend? A girl who does not care if you fart 8 times consecutively, a girl who can beat up your bullies, a girl who thinks your the hottest son of a mini cooper on earth, a girl who makes the first moves, a girl who loves games as much as you do, a girl who makes your friend's tingle with jealousy, a girl who never went though plastic surgery but still looks like Boa, a girl whose farts smell like chocolate, a girl whose hips don't lie, a girl with a GPA of 4.3 or higher, a girl who can out cook any Iron Chef. YES! I know, I know, I am sorry I just named everything you ever wanted in a girl. So perfect. I met a perfect girl once online when I was playing Starcraft. She was all these things then after like 20 minutes of talking to her, she tells me she's a guy pretending to be a girl. I was so disgusted you have no idea because I was fantasizing the entire time I was talking to him. I got pissed and cussed him out, but he said he did it to give me hope. To never stop looking for the perfect girl. We had a moment of silence for our uncompleted dreams

Mind of a Millionaire
Britain's millionaires are careful spenders who would rather snap up high street bargains than splash out on designer labels, a survey commissioned by BBC TWO's Mind of a Millionaire has revealed.
Forty two per cent of those interviewed for the biggest ever market research survey of Britain's millionaires said that they spent less than £500 a year on clothing.
The survey also found that a third of millionaires (38%) spend under £60 a week on their weekly food shopping.
The survey, which forms the basis of the series, was commissioned to learn how Britain's millionaires live, how they spend their money and what really matters to them.
The answer, not surprisingly, is money, money and more money. Their number one priority is saving. Money is more important to them than love or marriage, and, if they were given more money, they would invest it to make even more money.
Their attitude could be attributed to their upbringing – over half (59%) of the self-made millionaires surveyed came from poor or ordinary backgrounds.
Sixty per cent described themselves as either average or lazy at school but only 1% had ambitions to do as little work as possible.
The average self-made millionaire works 60 hours a week. Half stay in contact with the office while they're on holiday and 14% of them refuse to switch off.
However, the survey found that millionaires do like their holidays - they take at least three a year. Multi-millionaires take five a year and they spend on average £14,000 annually on breaks but their number one spending priority is saving and investing.
So what are millionaires like as people? The survey found that they are competitive, they like taking risks and they profile as aggressive, abrasive and self-confident.
When asked what they thought it took to make a million, most self-made millionaires answered "hard work".
The survey also reveals that the favourite millionaire meal is roast beef dinner and that the average millionaire has two cars. They prefer to drive a Mercedes but also like to have a four wheel drive parked outside. Most live in homes with four or more bedrooms.
Mind of a Millionaire provides exclusive insight into what it takes to make a lot of money by getting up close and personal with diverse and inspiring self-made millionaires. Each programme examines their success and the lessons we can learn from them.
The series includes high profile faces such as Sir Richard Branson and Anita Roddick but it also discovers some of the new breed of British self-made millionaires like Alexander Amosu who made his fortune from mobile ringtones in his early twenties and mum of two Sarah Tremellen who set up her own lingerie company following the birth of her first child.
