1. Kansans Have Hearts As Big As The Heartland
That’s not opinion. Facts are facts. You’re guaranteed to end up with someone who’s ready to open up their hearts and treat you right.
2. And They Never Flinch In The Face Of Danger
Kansans are no stranger to the sound of tornado sirens. Obviously. But they don’t freak out. In fact, the very first thing they do is go outside and look up at the sky to get a look what what they’re dealing with. You won’t find any scaredy cats here.
3. You’ll Finally Have Someone Who Shares Your Barbecue Obsession
Because few people love barbecue the same way Kansans do. The famous Kansas City style was born just one state over, and these folks will defend it to the death.
4. Kansans Will Always Make You Feel Comfortable
If the thought of going on a date in heels or a tie makes you cringe, fear not. Kansans are low-maintenance and casual, and the comfort of jeans and boots will always win.
5. They’re All Patriots To The Core
Kansas is full of some of the truest red, white and blues you’ll find across the country. They don’t just like American history, it’s in their bones. Kansans are America. And that’s why they’re the heartland.
6. And If You’re Looking For Someone With Serious Faith, Your Prayers Have Been Answered
Not only does part of Kansas fall along the Bible Belt, but recent polls suggest that as much as 86 percent of Kansans consider themselves Christian. So if you’re looking for someone to be your rock when times get hard, have faith in your Kansan. Can I get an amen?
7. You’ll Fall In Love Under The Best Sunsets Ever
Again, facts are facts. Kansas has been rated with having one of the best sunset views in the country. Don’t believe me? Just wait until your Kansan takes you out for an evening stroll.
8. After A Late Night You Can Hit Up White Castle Together
Or you can just eat some leftovers out of the fridge at home, since this isn’t Harold and Kumar. But it is the place that started White Castle, so a slider or two in celebration won’t hurt.
9. The Only Thing Flat About Your Relationship Will Be The Drives
Believe it or not, Kansas does have some hills. But not many. Not that it matters, because with your new Kansas someone at your side, those long drives that would have been boring before just got a whole lot more interesting.
And they’ve been on those drives a million times, so they know just how to help pass the time and make the trip into just another good memory.
10. Kansans Know How To Handle The Heat
If you’re expecting a mild summer in Kansas, you’re in for a bit of a shock when you get hit with the triple digit heat and high humidity index. But hot doesn’t always equal face-melting misery, especially when you’re seeing a Kansan. It means less clothes and more skin.
11. These Folks Are Truly The Salt Of The Earth
Kansans are honest, hardworking folk. Don't believe me? As of last year more than 17 million acres of land were used for farming in Kansas. Who knows how much of the rest of the country depends on your sweetie's hard work for its food? They're kind of like undercover superheroes.
Even if your Kansan isn't actually salt of the earth, they're definitely right above it. Take a trip together to Strataca for a date that’s as unique as your Kansan.
12. You Can Go On Vacation Without Ever Really Leaving Home
There’s no need to travel around the globe to see the real Stonehenge when you’ve got one right in your back yard. Take a picture in front of it together, slap it on Instagram, and consider yourself world travelers by proxy.
13. There's No Place Like Home With A Kansan
When things finally get serious, you can bet your Kansan will be ready to settle down and live out the rest of your days on the other side of the rainbow, in the real land of Oz. Just beware the flying monkeys.
