10 silly reasons why being in a relationship is awesome
FREE Catholic Classes
While we're all for power in the single person, being in a relationship can be a great thing, especially if you are comfortable with the person. You get warmth and love, but there are quite a few other great things, often taken for granted, that you are gifted when in a relationship.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The person you are in a relationship with often becomes your best friend. Taking that in mind, BuzzFeed put together a list of the "secret best parts of being in a relationship that no one ever talks about."
1. Does this make me look good?
They are there to let you know if your outfit is rocking or flopping. (Warning: The boyfriend may tell a white lie here.)
Pray for love
2. Is there something in my teeth?
You never have to fear going out in public with scraps of lunch remaining in your teeth.
3. Did you make it home OK?
Someone is always there to help you get home safe and to care if you make it home.
4. I have nothing to do, and that's OK
Even when you have nothing to do on the weekend, at least now you have someone to do nothing with; much better than being alone.
5. Sorry, I already have plans
You now have someone to use as an excuse to get out of going to things you don't really want to attend.
6. Can you help me?
That spot in the middle of your back, the one you can't quite reach, they'll get that for you.
7. Let's get out of here
Leaving a gathering with someone is easier than leaving alone.
8. Ahhhhhh
You're crazy. You know it, they know it, and they like it. You don't have to keep it a secret anymore.
Celebrate Marriage and Love with something special
9. Hey, look what I can do
That weird thing that you never wanted to show anyone before, yeah you can show your partner. That's what they're there for.
10. Call an ambulance!
Stop. They help put perspective into what's a serious health issue and what you're probably overreacting about.
