Dating a soccer player means your relationship will revolve around training, games, and club work. This can be a big commitment for an athlete to start dating someone, so keep in mind that your boyfriend will have conflicting feelings about his commitment to you and to football. Dating a soccer player can be difficult, but romantic and wonderful as well. Start with the first step for more detailed advice.

Steps

1. 1 Support. Tell him that you support him in playing football. Make sure he knows it. If you or your boyfriend doesn't feel supported, then your relationship will end. Show your support by coming to him for games, saying how good he was and even just hugging him and saying "well done!" If he knows that you love what he does, he will love you.
2. 2 Learn about the game. If he gets a red card, and you praise him, it will not end well. If you don't quite understand the rules of football, check them out. This is where the internet can be your best friend. You don't have to become an expert, just understand the basic rules, what roles all players have, how to score, what fouls and outs are in the game. The latter can be quite difficult to understand. Why not ask your boyfriend? He will be glad that you are interested.
3. 3 Find out his class schedule and go to them. You need to know and be able to plan your day around his busy schedule. Given the fact that he plans to study for several hours a day, make sure what time it will be, and do not plan anything important where he cannot go. If you feel like you're not spending enough time with your boyfriend, ask if you can go to workout with him. It will also help you learn the rules of the game. Your boyfriend will be very hungry after training, so why not invite him out to eat out at your expense?
4. 4 Agree that you will not be his top priority all the time. This step is by far the most difficult. Everyone wants to be the only thing their buddy thinks about. However, when your boyfriend is a potential soccer player, soccer is his top priority. If you went to his games and training, you will understand how important it is for him. Support him. Don't worry, he still loves you.
5. 5 Go to his games. Your presence at the games is very important to the guy. This shows that you support and love him, and he knows that you admire him at this moment. Make sure you don't embarrass him. No, the guy does not want to hear every couple of seconds “this is my baby!”.This is also part of the support: if you are on the game, he knows that you are on his game, he will be with you too. If you can't go to every game, don't worry. He will understand that you too can be busy.
6. 6 Know his team. If he's the only one you know on the team, you're not doing well. Don't worry, you will probably meet some of them in training. Know the core 11 players (core group), the substitute, and even the reserve. If your boyfriend is out with his football friends and invites you, don't refuse. Also know his trainers. They can help him in his career!
7. 7 Pour in. Be his biggest fan! Make t-shirts or flags with symbols or something else that shows that you are his biggest fan. Always dress in team colors for games. However, be careful not to overdo it.

Tips

• Guys can be very sensitive to their performance during games. Always make sure you focus on the positive things he has done. If you haven't been paying attention to the game, make sure you find out the details before you meet him after the game.
• Communicate. It is very important that you always talk to your boyfriend, even if he is busy exercising. So make sure you tell him if you feel you are being neglected. Then make sure you have some free dedicated time for you after your workout is over.
• Go to some games with his family. It gives you mega girl glasses always! Because, first, you support him in the game. Second, you are walking with his family!
• When you're trying to get along with his friends, try to bring them snacks after play. They will appreciate it and you will look great!
• Making T-shirts for games can be really easy and fun! Make it look like his T-shirt, but with a feminine touch!

Warnings

• It's very hard to meet a football player! He is constantly busy and tired. You will sometimes feel that football is more important to him than you are. Still worth it, he really loves you!
• If you think this isn't working and he really doesn't care, you might consider breaking up. It's better than spending the rest of your life with someone who doesn't give their best for a relationship. Don't cling to it just to look cool or whatever.
