"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

whats up guys?

I've been seeing my first girlfriend ever for about 6 weeks now. we are really into each other, but the time has come for summer break at college.

we live maybe 300 miles from each other. we will be attending the same college this fall and after that.

anyway... how would you guys handle this? I don't really want to break up with her. some things to consider: we are both highly saught after by the opposite sex. breaking up means basically instant hookup with other people that we dont care about. you know, the relationship vultures that are just waiting for something to happen so that they may swoop down and hookup on the rebound.

what are some ground rules I could lay for the summer break? honestly, I am pretty nervous about the situation. Its never happened before, so I figured I would ask you guys for advice.

thx dudes :rockon:
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Don't worry about it. Try your best to see her every week or every other week. Maybe you two can meet half way. Or maybe you can spend a few days together going somewhere cool, like a camping spot. Maximize the fun as much as possible. If she's going to cheat, she will.

Ground rules?! What is she 5??!!

You can make all the rules you want and have them as long as the declaration of independence. You been with her for 6 weeks and now you want her to sacrifice 4 months??!! That doesn't make much sense. In 4 months most relationships go to hell when couples are together!!! and yet you want it to go smoothley when you are away from each other?!! Why are you depriving yourself for 4 months??!! Its a long time and by the time you will come back you might not even know her.

Break up with her and go see other women and if she is still available coming fall hook up with her again.
