Sadly this is probably the worst place to get relationship advice. I can just see some 17 year old boy on here talking about how much of a "man" he is.

Not saying all gamers are boys living in their mom's basement or 40 year old virgins but games seem to attract those LOL

This thread is bringing back some bad college days memories for me. Cast of Characters:
Darlene - The beautiful, well-traveled, liberal, but somewhat odd and moody.
What'shername - Darlene's unattractive, conservative, churchy, suspicious of all men because they only have one thing on their mind roommate.
Khergit - A guy with only one thing on his mind, involving Darlene.

Act 1, Scene 1 - Khergit has come to visit Darlene. The living room of Darlene's and What's her Name's apartment. Darlene is seated on a sofette. Khergit is seated in a sofa on the other wall. What'shername is in a lounge chair. She's positioned at the apex of a triangle with perfect line of sight to the other two characters.

Darlene and Khergit are chatting, What'shername is observing. Occasionally she throws in an uninteresting, meaningless comment about something boring, to be sociable. If the chat between Darlene and Khergit begins to get a little flirtatious, or if Darlene starts laughing and enjoying herself too much, What'shername brings the conversation back to some boring newsy thing like current movies or TV.

Scene 2 - Same.

Scene 3 - Same.

Scene 4 - Same.

Act 2, Scene 1 - Khergit, Darlene and What'shername are at a Talking Heads concert. Khergit only invited Darlene, but What'shername came along. Most of the audience is on the floor dancing, pogoing, or otherwise having a great time grooving. Our characters have moved up to seats in the mezzanine, toward the back row, to rest and get away from the loud music and/or cannabis smoke. What'shername has dozed off. Darlene is worried about What'shername being tired and out too late. Khergit is wondering what the hell the meaning of life, the universe, and everything could possibly be.

Scene 2 - No more scenes, it's

think of this like sov propaganda. you have formed an alliance (you and your girlfriend) and you girl's friend is like goonswarm trying to use propaganda to break up your alience. if you let the propaganda get to you then you will loose sov

dating advice dont call your girlfriend sovereignty. girls dont like being ihubs.

...uh, I actually made a mistake there, it should be: Talk TO her about it, no?
No I think you were right initially when you said talk WITH her. One of the biggest problems people have in communicating with each other is the habit of talking TO people. They are trying to push their ideas on the other person. Talking WITH a person is about finding mutual agreement. And if you're both willing to truly listen to each other, it often is less about compromise and more about mutual benefit. A relationship built on compromise is only marginally better than one filled with unspoken negativity.

You have a girlfriend (hetero-relationship).

But your girlfriend also has a friend (girl) who is always talking down about you to your girl...almost as if she were jealous of the time you spend with her. Almost like she's trying to break you guys up.

What's up with that?

Unwritten rule among single guys is that "chicks come first." Ive never had a male friend get in the way of anything I wanted to do with a girl. If anything, they cheer you on hoping you'll score.


Don't sweat it bro! Here's the situation. You girl's friend is either:

1. Jealous - She wants your rod - give it to her or don't;
2. She's poison - Trying to trap you - If you will offer her your rod, she'll run to your girl and squack to ruin your relationship.

Here's how you should handle it. Tell your girl that you suspect her friend is trying to play her. Trying to break you two up, so she can move in. Set up a little trap. Tell your girl to tell her friend that the two of you had a big fight and your girl left you all crushed and sad.

If her friend comes over looking for the rod, you'll have your answer and a winning choice either way you goPirate

And that is your fatal error right there.


And women have no agency. Think about it. And then stop putting up with crap. Because crap is all you will get. I'm old enough to have seen Land of the Lost when it first aired on Saturday mornings, so take my advice. Every mistake you can make I've already made.

My luck with the opposite sex has been absolutely rotten...

Girl #1 went like;
Her: Hiii! I think you are cute! What sign are you?
Me: (gives her the finger) This sign! Now, **** off off with your astrology nonsense!

Girl #2 whom I initially clicked really well with, there was the conversation, the intellectual exchange, everything.
Her: All my previous relationships has failed because of communication.. (begins a long tiring rant with a few accusations here and there about her terrible exes)
...
...
Why are you so quiet? What are you thinking about?
Me: If you are ever going to talk about something else?

I read this in Miss Piggy's voice.

OP, if you're solid with your girl, the third wheel's nonsense will likely bring about some cognitive dissonance: her disparagement versus the reality of a (hopefully) positive relationship. Ideally, the SO will discard that nonsense to find consonance with the experience she has with you. If she sides with the friend, it's probably safe to say you dodged a bullet anyway.

There is nothing wrong with having standards. I guess the difference between you and me is that I have some.
