Quick Little Gems on Dealing with Men Thread

[innocentdevil]

-Your parents relationship can give big clues on what to do/not to do in your relationship.

-Even though you can do something for yourself...let your man do something for you so he can get a male ego boost.

 

[Coco Loco]

-Google is your friend use it. It's not spying or stalking it's being proactive
-Men are literal creatures. They're not as complicated as we think
-Be straightforward with them because they aren't as intuned as we are
-They love a good challenge
-Give them exactly what they give you

 

[Rawtid]

-Pay attention to who his closest friends are. You can tell a lot about someone by who they keep in their company

-always be honest no matter what. Even if it hurts their feelings

-in an argument don't waste time trying to get him to agree with your point of view. Make sure he understands it and leave it at that

Malc, stop trolling and let them have a peaceful thread.

I think it's been said, but if a guy can't engage in meaningful convos then don't bother with him.
If he sends you a dikk pic literally the day after you exchanged numbers, don't bother with him.

Try to make him laugh - they like that.
Don't be afraid to approach men. They won't bite.

Care to give examples please?

-Be very careful if he has a female best friend. That could be problems in the long term and don't try to dismiss it in the beginning because you want to impress him.

-if he's not on your insurance and/or does not have a car of his own don't let him drive your car.

-Do not share living spaces if you aren't married.

 

[Libra Lady]

Understand that a relationship should not be built upon compromises. If you feel that you are losing yourself and or am having to do/pretend to be into everything that he's into, than its not the right relationship for you.

 

[Rawtid]

-Trust. Good luck with it but if you are going to trust dude either do it 100% or not at all. Anything else is going to drive you mad.

- Don't be afraid to get your heart broken. It sucks if it happens but you will get through it.

-Never let a bad experience turn you bitter. There is nothing wrong with being cautious the next go round but to totally give up is a disservice to yourself. There is a lesson to be learned about yourself with every bad experience...find it.

 

[Libra Lady]

If a problem occurs in your relationship, confront the matter as soon as possible. Leaving situations unaddressed or festering for long periods of time is a surefire way to create resentment, dissension, combativeness and or a total division between you and your partner.

 

[innocentdevil]

I know you want to talk about the disagreements in your relationships with your friends, but resist the urge to do only that. If you are going to talk about your mate talk about the good things also, or your friends are going to think you are dating a douche.

 

[Amy Traphouse]

Avoid posting about your relationship problems on social networks too. Me personally I keep it at a minimum to where folks know I am in a relationship but going into details I don't do.

 

[Rawtid]

- If you're going to run your mouth about your relationship, make sure you include all the fukked shyt you do as well. When you make your spouse look like a bad person you open up the door for your man as well as your relationship to be disrespected.

nvm, ID posted the same thing. Props!

 

[Malfoy]

Never trust a man who introduces himself and uses all three of his names.
eg. Julius Winfield Erving.

RUN.
This may have been said already but...

Keep yourself up. Don't turn into a fat lazy slob.
Don't cuss his family out. (Unless you really really have to)
Learn how to cook or if you already know how, do it.
Try to do something nice and avoid being selfish and bratty.
Always stand your ground but know when to retreat.
Don't depend on him or anyone for that matter to make sure everything in your life is the way it's supposed to be.
