Hey, I have my friend here and we are both girls, just thought I'd let you know... Anyways... My other friend is having troubles with guys and we are pretty good at giving advice. I'm usually good at reading people and my friend... well... she's actually pretty good with relationship advice. In other words, most of our friends go to her for advice about what to do in a relationship and I'm always there. We practically always think alike because we are together so much. Anyways... we figured that if our friends were having troubles with boys then other people would be having troubles. We thought that we would help you all out! Anyways... I hope you enjoy!
Rule #1 : Don't EVER date your best friends ex-boyfriend.
Even if your best friend says it's ok to date her ex, IT'S NOT! That is a big NO NO! She could still have feelings for him and not even know or show them to anyone.
Rule #2 : If a guy doesn't ask you out face to face, SAY NO!
If he doesn't ask you face to face, he doesn't have guts. Simple as that. If a guy is with his friend to ask you out, then he still has guts but he could just have his friend there for moral support so that if he goofs up, like some guys will do, then he will have backup. If he doesn't ask you face to face, that's also a very bad warning sign that, if you two break up, it will most likely be over technology, an example is over voicemail. After that, it will always be awkward if you meet.Rule #3 : When looking for a guy, look for what's in the heart.
Now, not saying that all guys are like this, but some boys think with their downstairs more than their upstairs, if you get what I mean. Some of the nerdiest guys have the best hearts. Trust me, I know this one all too well. If a nerdy guy asks you out and you two have been friends, I say you should say yes and give it a try if you know that he has a heart of gold and that you are at least a little attracted to him.
Rule #4 : When a guy dumps you, move on AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
You don't want to get attached, that's why we give this rule. At least give it a week or two, at least, before you move on. Not saying to do this after all guys, but if he doesn't come crawling back to you, you don't go crawling back to him.
Rule #5 : Don't act like boys. Don't judge boys by how they look.
Now, as earlier stated, some of the nerdiest guys are the sweetest. Us girls don't say yes to them because we just look on the outside. If you are friends with a nerdy guy and he likes you, try and give him a chance. Nerdy guys may not be the cutest, but they are some of the sweetest and most caring people.
Rule #6 : The Friend Rule.
After a break up, and a guy says, "We can still be friends," you should cut off all communication and say no. We say this only because they will string you along and our friend was strung along from 6th to 10th grade by her ex. Now you see why we instate this rule?
Rule #7 : After three weeks or less of being with your boyfriend, DO NOT listen to him when he says he loves you!!!
This is a BIG NO NO because everyones knows that it's lust. On rare occasions, and I mean extremely rare, this could mean that he truly does love you. On mostly all occasions that this is said within a month of dating, it's lust.
Rule #8 : If kissing and the guy tries to do more, that's also a BIG NO NO.
This shows that he's only looking for one thing from you and he thinks it will be easy to get if he's dating you. If this ever happens, I say confront him about it and tell him not to do it again. If he tries this again, DUMP HIM!
Rule #9 : If you tell a guy you want to wait, then he should respect your wishes.
If he keeps pushing the topic of kissing or doing more than that, then you should give him the first warning. That would be like telling him to respect your wishes and wait. If he tries again after that without your consent, then he isn't worth your time. You are so much better than that. I say if he tries that after you tell him how you feel, dump him. You shouldn't feel pressured to do anything with anyone at anytime.
Rule #10 : If he forgets your anniversary, PUT HIM IN THE DOG HOUSE.
Now, we all know that this is practically a normal occurance. We aren't saying to dump them just because they forgot your one year anniversary. We are just simply stating that if he forgets once, he's probably going to keep forgetting. What you have to do is try and make him remember by dropping subtle hints.
