Dating Advice For Men
Having a read through this, and it kinda made me laugh. Check the paragraph below:In a relationship's early phases, the two of you will want to spend every waking hour in each other’s company. That’s fine in the beginning, but the reality of the situation is that, within a few months, you’ll be too afraid to ask her to let you play the newest Xbox 360 game with your boys. She’ll expect you to spend all your time with her the way you did in the beginning, and you’ll lose your friends and your personal time.
It then goes on to tell the reader that the best way to deal with this is to take her on dates she won't like, such as paintballing or hunting. Now, maybe their approach to relationships differs to mine, but....doing something that you know she'll hate deliberately to try and make her spend less time with you? Yeah, that'll work. Too well - she'll spend no time with you if you pull that one enough.
Let me propose a simpler solution: Don't spend all your time with her in the first place. I made this mistake with my ex - we spent every waking moment together at first, and because of that, we both lost touch with friends and family. Once you've done that, it's a lot harder to go back. My approach for the next relationship: No matter how much I like her, no matter how much I want to spend every moment with her, I will always allow a minimum of two nights a week for myself and my friends. That way, I never dig myself into the hole of "you never have time for me anymore", because I never spent every waking hour with her anyway.
Easy really.
