Being an Arsenal supporter is no easy feat ‘cos it’s a team that takes pride in putting its fans through the wringer. There’s the chance that on Saturdays, your boyfriend gets mad at random and you probably can’t understand the whole thing but hey, Arsenal probably just bottled it. So , I decided to write a list of some signs that most probably mean your boyfriend is an Arsenal fan.
1. He’s got the biggest heart ever and forgives your constant mess ups.
Here’s the thing, you’re a cheating ass. You’ve played away games like three or four times but your boyfriend has a big heart as a result of his supporting Arsenal so what does he do? He forgives you every damn time cos when you’ve forgiven Arsenal 5 times for bottling the League, forgiving your girlfriend is an extremely easy.
2. He’s constantly living in the past.
So here’s the thing about your man, he’s constantly reliving the past. He still talks about the good times with his ex and those friends he no longer rocks with. This is all cos of the fact that it’s been a while since Arsenal won the League and so Arsenal fans are forced to live in the past and here’s your boyfriend living that life out in numerous facets of his life.
3. He’s always watching videos on his laptop at 1am and screaming “oh my.”
Mesut Ozil is a beauty to watch. So is Olivier Giroud when he’s not trying too hard to be a beautiful footballer. And Jack Wilshere when he’s not injured. The chance you’d catch your man at 1 am watching Arsenal videos are pretty high based on the aesthetic value of their play. You’re also pretty likely to hear him scream “Oh my goodness, this is porn.” Fear not, it’s just Arsenal not actually porn.
4. He has the most random mood swings.
Yeah, if he was doing alright one hour ago and all of a sudden he becomes an annoyed shit then chances he’s an Arsenal fan are kinda high. He was probably all happy, until Arsenal lost to Crystal Palace or he saw that Vardy turned his team down.
5. Whenever anything bad happens he tells himself “my time is coming.”
Arsenal supporters have accustomed themselves to the jam tomorrow mindset that dictates that tomorrow will always be better. Your boyfriend has carried that same attitude and applied it to the other chapters of his life.
