ask


him


Q: After how many
dates with a dude do
I need to tell him that
I’m still seeing other
people?
A: All of the single
guys I know who are
dating assume that if
they haven’t yet had
‘the talk’ with a girl,
then they’re not yet
exclusive. Typically,
this convo will sound
something like: ‘Want
to make it official?’ or

‘I think we’re ready
to DTR’ or ‘Um, will
you, like... be my
girlfriend?’ So until
one of you utters some
version of these magic
words, you’re in the
clear. Also, it might
help to ask yourself
what feels right to you.

If you’ve been on more
than a few dates with
this guy, you’ve met
his friends, and things
seem to be heading in
a direction that borders
on serious, then it may
be a good time to give
him a heads-up. Other-
wise, abide by this
golden rule: when
would you want the
person you’re dating
to tell you? Give him
the same courtesy.

Q: MY BF BROKE
UP WITH ME ON MY
BIRTHDAY, AND I
WA S C O M P L E T E LY
DEVASTATED. NOW,
WEEKS LATER, HE’S
BEGGING ME TO
TAKE HIM BACK.
SHOULD I GIVE HIM
ONE MORE CHANCE?

A: This might be
the most definitive
answer I’ve ever
given: no effing way.
Any dude who dumps
you on your b’day


  • rather than, at the
    very least, doing so
    a few days before or
    after – is seriously


cold. He didn’t care
that he was ruining
your special once-a-
year moment (which
you may now forever
associate with this
break-up), and that
means he doesn’t
care enough about
your happiness. Blow
out the candles of
hope, wish for a way
better man, and then
move on.
