Why YOU Should Be Saying “Lets Just Be Friends”

It seems completely, totally, absolutely clear to me now…the single thing most important in finding a lasting, healthy relationship is friendship.

How to get a girlfriend starts with a friendship. I am single now, and at times I find myself trying on the old PUA thinking. It usually begins when I see an attractive woman, and I feel that chemical release of physical/sexual interest. Of course, this is relatively meaningless in the big picture - as I’ve learned.

Rebound=Repair, or Why You Shouldn’t Jump From One Relationship To Another

I broke up with my girlfriend.

It’s been rough.

Part of the deal in any break-up is the inevitable need to rebound. Or, to get someone else as soon as possible. Or, to secure validation (now lost) from a new person so I can stop the pain.

Rebounds happen ALL THE TIME. In fact, for most people, it’s a normal occurrence. The less secure, the lower the self-esteem, the more likely to jump from a broken, ended relationship to another one…which will inevitably end badly - as it was constructed on broken ground.

It makes sense, doesn’t it? So, I no longer call them “rebounds” I call them “repairs”.

Getting That “One Special Girl” - Part I

Hey -
One thing I did not cover in my ebook, “How To Get A Girlfriend” was what to do in that special circumstance where you get hung up on her to the point where you’re obsessed, a bit unfocused, and perhaps even slightly (or more) crazy.
