Okay so I have this ex of mine, who I don't like anymore, and he's going out with another girl from another school for about almost a month now. My ex and I "were" good friends even after we broke up! Its now march break and 2 days ago on MSN I was just going to ask him how his march break was and all of a sudden "what do you want"? He was pissed at me and crying on MSN, apparently he still hasn't gotten over me yet, and I'm sitting here thinking he has a frigging girlfriend who he can "play" with, if you know what I mean, where for me I wouldn't dare let him get to second base with me. Well not yet at least. Right now I feel like I'm the one who's the guy and he's the really emotional crying girl. And the reason we broke up is because --well--i couldn't date anyways, and he knows that me dating him can never be possible ever again. He also says that we can't be friends anymore and that he can't let this happen again. Meaning he doesn't want to hurt me and start to like me even more. I told him that he HAS a girlfriend and he's like. So? I can like more girl than one! I was like omgosh! He also said that right now he seriously does not know who he likes more. And now I haven't had contact with him for about 3 days now, he even deleted me off of his friends on facebook! SERIOUSLY what is on his mind? Should I just stop talking to him like I'm doing right now? Anybody know what's going to happen at school after march break if this keeps going on?

Society likes to paint the picture that men are the hard-asses that just want to wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am.
There is the other side of guys who have very poorly developed social skills (as opposed to those with VERY well developed social skills and abuse them - Players) and are not well equipped with thinking out or dealing with emotional responses.
While I agree that women are more prone to their hormones in the chemical sense of the word, this also allows them to reach a level of maturity at a younger age (such as 16, like yourself). Personally, at 20, I felt I had the emotional quotient (EQ) of a 15yr old girl, when it came to certain issues. Just speaking about relationship wise, not mental mental maturity per se.

My advice is to just avoid him, stop interacting with him. When he does interact with you, let him spout, cry, throw tantrums. If you can, just act totally nonchalant as if he were nothing but a petulant child.
After a while he'll realize what a dumb ass he is, and stop bothering you.

That-Guy Well said, one of the myths about women is that they are more emotional then men which isn't true. Men are every bit as emotional as women but the difference is we tend to suppress, hide or express it in a different manner. We're not robots. - 3 months ago

Well. I would just drop him as a friend and a prospective boyfriend. He's not worth it if he's going to say stuff like that to you while he has a girlfriend

What pickup lines do you use to start a conversation with someone you are attracted to?
I don't use any pickup lines. I've tried the "friends first" approach, etc... and have done the same things for 22yrs.

How do they typically respond?
Well, I am still single, I've been rejected from every woman I've ever asked out of a period of 22yrs and counting.

Do I have the right approach?
