In the book it states that when people become boyfriends or girlfriends they have to play the role and behave. My first thought about this statement was that I did not agree, because in a way being a boyfriend or girlfriend to somebody should make it easy to behave and be the person that the other wants. But, when relationships grow over time I did see the point of playing the role and behaving. I agree now with this statement. After relationships surpass the cupcake stage where the two people are all in love and giddy, they probably need to behave and play the role. The relationship gets a little hard because now everything is not butterflies and rainbows. To be in a relationship can be hard and both people do have to play their role as boyfriend or girlfriend. And you do have to behave a certain way in order to make the relationship work. So when girls and boys want the title of girlfriend and boyfriend they are accepting to play the role.
