Date the boy who wants the world to know that you're together. Who invites you to holiday parties so you can meet his cousins. Who holds your hand during dates so everyone knows you're a couple. Who brags about you to all of his friends because he can't believe he got so lucky.
Don’t date the boy who sends you mixed signals. The boy who compliments you one day, who acts interested in you one day, and then disappears for the next three days. The boy who has a limit on how much he can offer you, who pulls away when he feels like you’re edging too close.
