25 Things You Should Thank Your Girlfriend For

Last Updated: 01 June 2024

I recently read an article titled ‘25 things you should thank your boyfriend for.’ Of course, then my boyfriend challenged me to think of 25 things he should thank me for. Naturally, I decided to take that idea and turn it into a blog post, creating a companion article featuring plenty of everyday but important things to thank your girlfriend for. So, here are my 25 reasons to be thankful for your girlfriend!

1. Attempting to join in a conversation about something she knows literally nothing about
2. Agreeing to watch football games with you even though you’ll be so engrossed in the game you end up ignoring her anyway
3. Not complaining when you kick her in your sleep
4. Or when you lay on her hair and nearly rip it out
5. Giving you massages when you’re sore after a workout
6. Picking all the little bits of fluff off your shirt
7. Laughing at your jokes (even when they’re terrible)
8. Agreeing to get lunch at that one place you really love for the third time in a week
9. Enduring the long conversations between you and your friends about things that happened way before she knew you
10. Putting up with you laughing at really immature things
11. Even when you find them hilarious (they’re really not)
12. Fitting herself in around your football schedule
13. Not retaliating when you complain about the TV show she’s watching
14. Or the film she wants to see
15. Or her taste in music
16. Helping you out with everything she can
17. Not complaining about your weird habits
18. Still making the effort to dress up and look nice when you go out together
19. Always being 100% committed to you
20. Looking after you when you’re ill
21. Even when it’s just man flu
22. Giving you space when you’re busy
23. Spending ages thinking up the perfect gifts for you
24. Always believing in you no matter what
25. And for supporting you through everything
