When you really like a guy and you’re trying to get your flirt on, it’s natural to overanalyze and decode every word that comes out of his mouth. Of course, the danger we run into in doing so is that we often assign significance to things that he’s not even thinking about. For instance, maybe…
Is there anything more awkward than a guy professing his feelings for you when you’re simply not ready? Uttering those three little words for the first time is a big deal for many people, some more than others. You shouldn’t have to do anything you’re not comfortable with just because he’s a few steps ahead…
When the going gets tough in your relationship, what do you do? Do you leave the man you love behind or do you fight for him? When it’s right, you know it in your heart, mind, and gut. That means you don’t give up without trying everything in your power to work it out. You…
Compared to past generations, it’s a little more acceptable (and common) these days for men and women to be “just friends” with each other. However, it gets a little weird when most of a person’s friends are of the opposite sex. It’s perfectly natural to be jealous if your partner has a lot of female…
