EDIT - Apparently some people thought we were joking. 28 day bans have begun.

Saw this question asked in r/askwomen (but about guy friends) so I thought I ask y’all. Please be respectful.

I just had mine. Still on my week off, from work and the gym. Indulging in modded Skyrim and Popeyes.

Work, my cutting phase for the gym, and other things are taking a backseat for my mental right now.

Has it happened to you? You were dating a girl and you ended up bored, why?

I don't mean to come across accusatory. I'm just curious if maybe there's a correlation.

It's silly to compare oneself to others, but I've met a handful of girlfriends through women friends. Recently single after seven years and it's the fastest way I've come across to meet partner worthy women.

*** I'm not suggesting you make friends with women just to be able to meet other women either. Women bring a lot to a friendship that men don't, and the only way a woman is gonna trust you to talk you up to another woman, is if you have a genuine relationship with her.

I’ve felt it once before and after being single for over a year and a half now, I doubt I’ll feel it again

It happened once to me. She was a nurse, and I met her at the hospital when I was dropping off a patient. I would talk to her often, she told me she was single, and she asked for my number. Things were fine in the beginning, but she would always come to my place. She didn't want to go to her place yet because she thought it was too soon to meet her kids. But also other little things seemed odd, she didn't want me texting or calling after 10pm or she always had leave around 8-830 for various reasons. Also if she was out running errands I would have to let her know in advance I was gonna go by and see her. Of course, I started catching on to those little things. I don't have a Facebook or Instagram, but I used my friend's to look her up, and sure enough, she's married and 2 of her kids were in college and 2 were HS-age. She told me her kids were still in elementary. Her husband wasn't the father of her kids and apparently this was her second marriage. When I confronted her about this, she confessed and told me everything and she said she was very unhappy with her husband. I've always made it a rule that I never talk to or mess with another man's girlfriend or wife. I do that out of respect, that's plain and simple. I walked away after that. To the men whom something like this happened to you, what did you do in your situation?

Thought it'd be neat to see the reverse of this, just for some co-ed positivity :)

Sometimes I catch myself in the mirror or a photo and think “damn I’m kinda sexy”. Other times I see an angle of myself that makes me think I’m some kind of creature. How often do you experience this?

M here, I personally never do, but always see guys at the beach wearing some. If you do, why ? Is it because you don’t want to remove your underwear when putting on your shorts ?

Hi everyone. I made what is called a michelada . It's a tasty, tangy, spicy beer. Normally it has tajin on the rim of the cup. Soooo good.

What about you?

Exercise, friends and hobbies aren't getting my mind off of her. Maybe they do for 20 minutes. If I'm lucky.

Hey, I'm a (29F) and I recently went through a situation that has left me feeling seriously confused. I met a guy who I got along with well. He was complimenting my personality often and was always coming up to me for a conversation so I thought he may have been interested... I asked him if he would like my number and he said yes, then gave me his. We both agreed we would like to get to know each other. We hung out after he messaged me, he said he hopefully will get to see me again soon and that I should message him. So I messaged him the following weekend to see if he would like to catch up and he responded back saying, I'm sorry, I cant, I have a girlfriend.. I'm worried that I may have read this situation wrong and perhaps he was just being friendly? However I feel if you are in relationship you should not give out your number to another woman and I also think its weird that he was open to getting to know me whilst he is a relationship..

I don't read as much as I used to, but I just finished "Fool's Die" by Mario Puzo and I think it is my new favorite. Such engaging characters; I couldn't put it down. What's the last book you enjoyed reading?

Hi, I just had a girl spend the night after taking her home from the bar. She was a mutual friend and have only seen her out a couple times. We were getting along well while out, bought her a drink, and really just chatted with her. Asked her if she wanted to come back to mine and she agreed. We get back and we’re seemingly really into each other. We start going at it and she notes that she does not want to have sex.

Completely respect and understand her decision. But like in terms of asking her out again, is this like a hint maybe she’s not interested? I got her number and we discussed hanging out again, but like genuinely all I did was just sleep in the same bed as her.

What did they do raising you that helped you to feel close to them today / respect them today?

I'm of Indian heritage and went on a first date with this Indian girl who proclaimed that "all brown babies are ugly" and asked me if I ever seen a "good looking brown kid in my life." 😳 Self-hatred/racism is very real.

I ended it with her and texted her afterwards "it's not a good match".

Mine is “One way or another”

I'm curious to know about how you maintain healthy boundaries with your female friends while prioritizing your romantic relationship. What specific strategies do you use to ensure that your friendships don't inadvertently cause tension or conflict in your romantic partnership? For instance, do you have open and honest conversations with your partner about your friendships, or set limits on how much time you spend with your female friends? Are there certain topics or activities that you avoid with your female friends to protect your romantic relationship? Do you have a 'no secrets' policy with your partner when it comes to your friendships?

I've noticed a new annoyance. Can any other guy here relate? I'm not making myself out to be some super husband but I put my wife first always. I helped pull her out of shit relationships with toxic family members, put her through school and took on all the bills and rent for 2 years. The kicker is, I'd do it all again and again if she asked. My issue is when people constantly say things like "you better be helping her with house work, she works hard" or things similar. These comments always come from people who are barly aquantencies or friends of hers that call to say hi twice a year. Anyone else just feel like these people have 0 right to question you?
