1. Act Like an Adult:
This is such a big one, guys. Let’s first discuss
what is not acting like an adult. Basically, it’s doing
anything a 13-year-old girl would do.This includes,
but is not limited to: ignoring texts, ending texts
with “!!!†or “?!â€, throwing tantrums, calling names
and making statements to which “I know you are,
but what am I?†could be accurately applied.
2. Make a Decision:
Wishy-washy is not decisive. Decisive is secure.
Women like secure.
3. Think Things Through and Have a Plan:
Throwing caution to the wind is fun when you’re
booking a weekend getaway, not when you’re
looking at your future.
4. Have an Opinion About Things:
Just recognize that it’s just an opinion and allow
room for the opinions of others. Especially hers.
Especially in front of other people.
5. Be Transparent:
If you want to see her, say so. If it’s just a booty
call, say so. If you want a relationship, say so. If
you’re not sure what you want, leave her alone.
6. Be as Supportive and Proud of Her Career As
You Are Yours:
Believe me, this will set you apart.
7. When Having s*x With Her...
Focus on more than just recreating the porn video
you just watched and do that amazing thing you do
much slower.
8. Bring Her Flowers:
Do this on days that are not her birthday, your
anniversary or one on which you screwed up. Better
yet, screw the flowers. Write her a letter.
9. Give Good Eye Contact:
Seriously, it works like giving her two glasses of
wine.
10. Invite Her Out:
Ask her if there is any place that she’d like to go or
if you can make the plans. Then make some great
ones and be on time.
11. When You Ask How Her Day Was...
Pay attention to her response. Listen to it and ask if
you can help before you start telling her what to do.
12. You Know What Your Mother Said?
It was rude.
13. Ask Her to Dance:
14. Stay Quiet and Calm When You Want to Yell
and Scream.
Do you really want to look like a teething 2-year-
old?
15. Treat her the way you would want a man to
treat your daughter.
Would you want a man to start sending or asking
for body shots as soon as he got her number?
16. Give her the benefit of the doubt.
Especially when you least think she deserves it.
17. Trust her.
Don’t assume friendships with men mean she can
be stolen from you, wants to make you jealous or
doesn’t respect you.
18. If you’re going to end it, end it clearly,
respectfully and with dignity. Don’t play the “I need
time†game. If, in time, you want her back, come
back and see if she still wants you and go from
there.
19. Call When You Say You Will Call, be where
you say you will be, do what you say you will do.
Enough said.
20. Know when — and how — to apologize.
Don’t be sorry she felt that way, be sorry you did it.
21. Use Your Words Wisely: Communicate
effectively. Clarify misunderstandings. Say “I love
you†and “I am sorry†and “I will call you†only
when you mean it.
22. When She Get’s Emotional, Don’t Do Any of
the Following:
Mention anything having to do with any time of
month, refer to her as a “nag†(or worse), try and
“fix†it, tell her she “should not†feel that way or
respond with any statement that shows that you
have it worse than she does.
23. Be Respectful, Even When Mad. Even when
ending it. Even after you have ended it. Even if she
will never know.
24. Know the difference between opinion and fact.
