Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

Ladies and gentlemen, it is time to pull out your notepad and start jotting all of this down. This dating coach is here to change the game for all of you.

He has gone viral for sharing the bare minimum qualities that all men should have and it is an interesting watch, no matter your gender. Jacob Lucas posted the video just in time for Valentine’s Day, of course.

It is designed to serve as a meditation on the modern dating scene so that everyone has a much better idea of what they need to be expecting.

He’s a self-styled coach and boyfriends are being urged to follow these tips to keep the relationship healthy. According to Lucas, he has already “helped millions of people get the love life they have always wanted through his real-life methods.”

“I’m a professional dating coach, and [these are] five things that your boyfriend should be doing for you that are the bare minimum,” he says as the clip begins. It has already been viewed 3 million times and we presume that the advice must be striking a major chord. For starters, he is here to lay waste to all of the “I’m not good at texting” people out there.

“You should not have to ask a full-grown man to return your calls or your text. When he’s available, he should do that anyway,” he says. He is also a strong believer in the importance of weekly dates. In his mind, this may seem like a lot to some people but it should not be.

“Your boyfriend should be your biggest cheerleader. If he’s not, something’s not right, trust me,” he continues, as he lists off the third trait that is most valuable.

This is true for both genders. If you are not building your partner up, there is a good chance that you are actively tearing them down. Sharing schedules is another tip that he suggests, as he claims that it is not hard to do.

Lastly, affectionate partners are a must. We must say that we agree with all of these pointers wholeheartedly. None of them should be that difficult for anyone who actually wants to be with the person in question. While one user tried to claim they couldn’t afford the weekly date, another countered immediately.

“Weekly dates don’t need to be expensive!! make dinner together, watch a movie, go on a walk together. it’s about quality time not cost,” they said.
