"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

How to handle wardrobe arguments

Hi DJs. I'm new to the forum and stumbled upon it when looking to the internet, of all places, for relationship advice.
The GF and I have been official for more than 6 months now. It's a long-distance relationship (east coast to west coast) and we only get to see each other every couple of months or so. So to make up for that, we skype, text, and phone calls. So I truly place much value and emphasis on the times we do get to skype. She's a respectable enough girl and I trust her to an extent.
But the other day, she goes out in a totally see-through top. It was white and she was wearing a bright baby blue bra underneath it. It was to an outdoor movie with her sisters and some friends. I thought it was an extremely inappropriate top. She's a pretty girl and gets hit on when she goes out to clubs and even at work. I expressed my dismay at her wardrobe choice and wondered why she would even consider wearing something like that when she never had before. She got upset and said I made her feel like a slut.
Was it unreasonable of me to point out my disapproval? If so, what better way could I have gone about it? Is it ok for your GF to dress that way when your not with her?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

This is easy. You dump her because you're only 6 months in and it's long distance.

Many, many, many women in relationships will flirt outrageously just to get an ego boost. Most of them have no intention of cheating but they crave the attention.
I'd say she was hoping to get hit on to fill a void in her life that's not being filled by you.
Still, you have to explain that you don't want to be with a woman who parades her wares in public.
If she resists, you have to be firm or leave.

By the way, please post your age in your profile as per forum rules. And good luck!!!

OP, you have 12 hours to post your age in your profile. After that I have to delete your post. This is the Mature Man forum and you must be 25 or older to post, and you must post your age.

The other mods are much stricter on this than I am so do it as soon as you read this lest one of them pulls the trigger.

Edit: Never mind, I moved the thread to General Discussion.

She is wearing that for attention. She loves the attention she is getting from guys. This is just something that you should have scoped from the beginning of the relationship. If she wore stuff like that when you guys were dating then you probably shouldn't have taken it farther until she decided to settle down with the clothes. If she changes her clothing style in the middle of a relationship then it is a bad sign. It's a sign that she needs to go through her "hoochie" stage.

Why the hell are you in a long distance relationship anyway? I hope this is temporary because if it's not then I would suggest for you to end it while you can. It only takes weeks for a playa to creep up on her and show her what she is missing. You need to be on the prowl too! Don't you got needs?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
