When it comes to dating, people often have very specific parameters concerning their significant other. If you’re in the market for a sporty partner you may want to take into account the particular sport they fancy. Sure, you could go after a macho football player or uber-active long distance running, but I’m here to tell you why you should date a tennis player.
Reason No. 1: There’s always LOVE involved
It is by far the most important reason for any relationship. Even if your significant other isn’t have the best day, and they get pummeled in a match 0-6, 0-6, they will always have love. Love-40! 30-love! Deuce! Well, you get the point. Whether winning or losing there will always be love on the court, even if you’re not the most compatible off the court. You can’t find that in any other sport.
Reason No. 2: Adore his fashion style
With soccer, basketball or football players, you won’t be able to differentiate them in their boring jerseys. Why would you want a boyfriend who looks the same as everyone else! A tennis player has their own style and fashion sense that defines them on and off the court. What’s better than seeing your guy in a classic poloshirt hitting stroke after stroke. Or maybe a headband, flashy shoes and cut off tee. Whatever you’re into. Often times they don’t even have to stop at the locker room before hitting the cocktail party!
Reason No. 3: Pair up for Mixed Doubles
Whether you are a tennis player yourself or a total beginner, pair up with your man to play a round of mixed doubles. It’s a good way to see if he’ll make you the queen of the court. Ideally, you’ll find out if you really hit if off with this guy, whether things are going well or not on the court. What better way to find out about his personality than being thrown into a close three setter! If he smashes a racquet and acts like a petulant child you may want to look else where.
Reason No. 4: His sun-bronzed body
Tennis players are constantly in the sun and always have a saucy tan. Tan aside, do you realize how much you move while on the tennis court? Talk about an in shape individual. Your man will have the perfect tan and toned features wherever you both go, such as partying, shopping etc. You may not however, want to go swimming with him because of that ridiculous farmers tan. It’ll look like he’s wearing a shirt and socks while in his bathing suit. Either way, it’ll be a good laugh.
Reason No. 5: He’s an independent man
Tennis players know better than anyone else that you can’t depend on everyone else to solve your problems. When it’s just you out there on the court, you need to take responsibility for your actions. Do you want a man who expects people to pick up the slack or cover for him? I didn’t think so. In nature he’ll be self sufficient, self motivated and hardworking. Okay, maybe you’ll have to do his laundry every once in a while, but in general he’ll not expect you to be his personal assistant.
