This isn’t hyperbole. If they had to choose between you and the car, you’re probably going to be in for 2nd place. They love their cars so much that sometimes, it’s as though they’re dating their cars. Example, if you’re the type expecting mushy mushy nicknames for each other, you’ll probably have to fight the car for it. You’ll probably also have to contend with them whispering sweet nothings to a car. It’s totally not crazy at all!

 

2. Don’t do anything to hurt the car...or else

Do you ever think that you’re always the priority in the relationship? Well think again! You shouldn’t do anything to hurt the poor car, and this includes slamming the door, putting your feet up on the dashboard, spilling drinks on the car seat etc. We could go on, but you get the idea. You should also prepare for a lot of outbursts (not at you!), whenever your significant other spots a dent or a scratch on their car.

 

3. No more romantic meals in the car

Have you ever watched an old movie and thought, wow, our parents really loved spending time inside their cars, for example at the drive thru cinemas, drive thru diners etc...But a car lover ain’t gonna have ANYTHING remotely related to food inside the car. To a car lover, there is NOTHING worse than having the greasy trails of French fries or the crumbs from a biscuit littering the seat.

 

4. They will spend more on their car than on you

You have to get ready to see lavish spending...on the car. Yes, every car lover will be looking out to put in the best of the best into his car, and you’ll probably have to be content with getting second best. You’ll be seeing them feed their cars the best petrol and buy the best parts. In other words, the only Michelin-starred item you’re getting is the wheels on your baby’s baby.

 

5. Be prepared for a lot of driving

Car lovers love driving, that’s a must. However, if you’re not the kind of person who loves sitting in hours as your significant other zooms across highways and byways, this may not exactly be your favourite hobby. Sure, it’s romantic when you drive cross country, but when you’re doing it every weekend, it starts to get a bit boring. There’s a reason we avoid traffic jams like the plague after all.
