10 Things I've Learnt About Dating a Car Enthusiast
1. He will be enthusiastic about all things cars. You have been forewarned
Boyfriend: Happy birthday babe! I have a surprise for you!
You: Really? What?
Boyfriend: I got us tickets to see the original Fast and the Furious on it's 15th anniversary this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You: Is this a birthday gift for me or you?
Boyfriend: Why would you say that? It's for you. I really thought you'd love it.
Your face VS his face during this conversation
2. You will realise you need to learn a new language because he is fluent in carmanianese
3. You will find him ten times sexier in a car or fixing one (preferably scantily clad)
<insert sexy picture from your imagination here>
4. The perfect gift is a new upgrade on his car
Painted wheels: A christmas gift idea. You can thank me later
5. You will find yourself taking pictures of cars and later wondering how you even noticed them
6. He will sweet talk you in car salesperson speak
7. He will freak out over old cars and you will be totally confused
8. Listen again, he's talking about a car not another woman
Sure, he might be throwing out statements like "hips for days," "priceless," "what a beauty," "she's awesome," "Gorgeous Rosso Corsa" but he's talking about a car. I betcha!
9. You will never need to go to the mechanic again
Because he will either insist on fixing the car himself or taking the car to the mechanic so they can ogle over cars, I mean discuss what's wrong.
