5 Reasons Why I Need Women in My Life

5 Reasons Why I Need Women in My Life

Do you know I've got four friends who have ALL said they aren't ever going to date? Well, two have been dating but after several bad experiences, they're just quitting.

I've had a few bad experiences myself but I can't bring myself to quit. I don't even understand why I should. Who strikes gold the first time, anyway? Who hasn't driven home late at night after a shitty date saying something like, "I sooooooo don't need this"? How many guys have believed, more than once, that all they need is a comfortable chair, some video games, and a bunch of porn and be happy forever? I think we've all thought it at least once.

But it just isn't true for me and never will be. Here are five reasons why I absolutely need women in my life:

5. "Lonely" is a real thing guys experience, and it really blows

Yeah, I can hang out with my friends plenty. I've got family, too. But there's something completely different about sharing your life with a female. It gives you a different perspective, a fresh take on things, and trust me, surrounding yourself with only guys gets tiresome. Eventually.

4. Smile once and I'm good for the day

Has anyone noticed how special a girl's smile is? Is it just me? Maybe it's weird but I actually love it when a woman smiles and it doesn't even matter if she's not that attractive. A pretty smile makes just about ANY girl attractive in her own way. When I have a girlfriend, when she smiles (and it helps if I made her smile), I totally get the warm fuzzies. I even call them the "warm fuzzies" in front of my friends because I love it and I don't give a shit what they say.

3. It makes me a better person

It really does, you know. When I'm in a relationship, I'm the best version of myself. And everyone sees it, too; my friends and family always notice it. My parents always say they can tell immediately when I've met someone new that I'm excited about, and the more I fall for this person, the better I get. I'm just happier, friendlier, cheerier, more ambitious, more forgiving of things I generally hate (stupidity, ignorance, etc.), and it's just...great.

2. Sex

Yeah, I know. Guys think I should've put this at #1 but honestly, it doesn't deserve to be there. Sex is huge for me, of course, but I also love the closeness surrounding lovemaking. It's just secondary to the biggest thing, which is having someone to care about, and having someone who cares about me. Wait...I just gave it away, so let's move on...

1. Having someone I can care for, and having someone who cares for me

Doctors and psychologists and normal people everywhere all say the same thing: Human beings all have an intrinsic need to love and be loved. We all do, whether we choose to acknowledge this need or not. We can shove it down, we can turn a blind eye, we can pretend the urge isn't that powerful; we can try all these tactics and in the end, the fact remains. We all want to want someone, and we want someone to want us. Simple and unavoidable. Why not embrace it?
