Why are guys so nuts about football?

Why do guys like football so much?


It seems that all boys go into auto mode during football season. Bragging about their favorite team, prepping for game day and don’t even think about disturbing them when the game is actually on. But why do boys love football so much? What is so thrilling about a group of fat men in tight pants throwing a ball around and tackling each other? And all that effort just to get the ball over a line seems a bit silly.


Think of it this way: Football for guys is what shopping is for girls. It is a time when they can get together and bond over something they have in common. Although they get a bit more rowdy over a touch down than we do about a major sale at the mall, it is their way of celebrating and who are we to stand in their way.
 
Wearing their fave team's jersey and chanting the fight song may seem over the top, but it is how they choose to spend their “guy time.” So, next time the big game is on don’t pester him about watching something useless, and let him spend the day with his guys. Take it as a free pass to hit the mall with your BFFs for your bonding day.

MMOD MOD MOD!!! How should i do my hair and makeup for the V-Day dance?? i want to go more natural since my dress is sparkly and pink and pretty much over the top lol thanks!!

 

Hey Alykat18, a simple bun or low side ponytail would be really cute. Stay away from dark or bright colored makeup and go for a nude lipgloss and a dash of mascara. Hope this helps and have fun! Xoxo

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD**** im texting this guy i reallllyyyyy like (and we know each other really well because we've dated before) and he likes me too and we're doing this truth or dare thing over text and im trying to do flirty stuff but i suuucccck at it. help?

 

Hey nobody25, just think of things you would want him to say, and text that to him. If you want him to compliment or playfully joke with you, try doing that to him. Flirting is all about responding, so just answer his questions. Trust me, the more you practice, the better you'll get. And I'm sure the last thing he's thinking is that you're bad at texting. No worries chicky. Xoxo
