myTakes: Relationships

New guy in class. He's 5'10"ish, lean and athletic, clean cut, white, facially aesthetic, well-dressed, plays sports, socially normal and goes out often, educated, lots of friends, well-traveled, wealthy family, has a...

So, before I start, let me say that I don't advocate ever changing yourself to appeal to anyone else, rather realizing what about you is attractive is always a great piece of information to have. So, the "ex" blueprint...

Focus on Yourself I wanted to share this myTake amidst me getting over a girl that got in a relationship with another guy even though I thought we were going to end up together. People like to tell you what to feel and...

We tell our selves that somewhere out in the world there is "the one" that will be the only one I will ever need. In the mean time we break our hearts against the stones of our own making. The stone walls that are formed...

The one thing I've always noticed time and again is girls and guys both view each other as having the same psychological brain. They interprete the actions of the opposite gender through the gender of their own and this...

Welcome :) Ahhhh, the dreaded friendzone. The bad place. Nobody any guy wants to go when with someone he likes, and it's frequently with girls. A notorious place is the mind of men. But, to be blunt, it isn't real. And...

Short note before you begin: This myTake was written from the perspective of what a guy could look for in a girlfriend, a lot of these points could very well apply TO BOTH GENDERS but for the sake of time we'll focus...

He broke up with you.  You knew it was going to happen.  He wasn’t being unfaithful to you and you weren't being faithful to him.  The sex was still good but that wasn’t enough to keep the relationship together.  You just...

Recently, my girlfriend has been needy.  She is not a dependent or helpless female and she is not usually needy, but recently, circumstances have made her needy. She bought a house recently and moved in about 2 1/2 months...

I've been with my wife for going on 17 years now. I was 17 when we shared our first kiss and we haven't looked back since. In this time, we've dealt with just about everything a person can think of: infidelity, fighting,...

I have mentioned Hannah in a fair few of my comment responses but Hannah's life has not been easy and with her permission I am going to try and tell her story the best I can. I orignally met Hannah in 2001 via her 23 year...

I'm not very good at conveying my ideas to society cause we think and live in parallel non-meeting worlds. But i'll try to keep it simple, short and help  you comprehend some humane concepts in a socially relatable way....

There are more than 50 things I can point out as a guy. Most of my friends and my brothers just get surprised how women think we care about some of these things. The main reason the made me decide to write this is because...

Embarrassing things girls do to their boyfriends and to boys in general. I don't know if its intenional or not but it sure make guys question if single life might be better for them. 1) Making their guy wear stuff they...

I wrote this for my wife, she had to go out of state to help a sick family member, and now I'm not sure how long she will be gone. I love her dearly and miss her and hope she comes home soon. So I sat down and wrote the...

The Obvious Statement: I'm talking in terms of past relationships here. We kind of avoid focusing on the present and a happy future and instead worry about bad things that have happened in the past. I know we do it...

I am only 16, I know that, but that doesn't mean I don't know what I'm talking about, in fact, I'm in the center of the issue. Maybe it's just my personal ideals or maybe it actually is normal, but I've noticed forever...

Time to ruffle some feathers. Especially the people who claim the friendzone isn't a thing. The common definition of the friendzone is when a male has sexual or romantic intentions towards a female and she doesn't...

Ok so there are the basic things like cuddling etc. that keep you close but there is some more other fun things that can give you that special time together. Most of these are boyfriend/girfriend activities but some could...

So I'm going to be brief about this one. How is it a selfish thing to tell a guy/girl that they're ruining friendship for wanting more? Simple: Anyone saying that are people who are actually in a friendship where the...
