Relationship Tips

Please post relationship advice here so that others may learn from your mistakes.


Never insult your significant other's taste in music insisting that all she listens to is classical music and bands with banjo-players in. She won't let you live it down for weeks/months/years/ever.

Never, ever answer to clothes related questions. Especially when the question involves one of her female friends.

I know it's an old one, but true nonetheless.

Never say:

'That's not the way my ex did it'
'Are you sure the dress shrunk?'

Buying bins as presents is usually bad, unless you're me :crazy:

Never rub another man's rhubarb.

When it involves guys;

-Never ask start a question with the word 'why'. Apparently it implies hostility

-Don't insult ex-girlfriends. It's only a privilige for them

- If they're not feeling well ALWAYS show sympathy. Don't ask for sympathy in return, it is 'childish'

- When discussing problems in the relationship, always use the term 'we' , even where it actually just concerns 'him'. Unless you want to find out what a cornered animal really looks like

- If you make a mistake they made in the past, never refer back to it. It's called digging up the past. To them the term 'relating' has something to do with haberdasherryand the likes and is therefore highly un-masculin

- Everything you say when drunk will be used against you. This obviously does not work the other way around as they were 'just' drunk

Cynical...

All of that seemed quite reasonable, to me :unsure:

do not call your lady by the wrong name, especially if you call her by an ex's name, especially especially if it is your most recent ex. I know it's an old classic but it is soooooooo true :no:

Never, never, never take ANYTHING for granted!

When it's the one night that you see you boyfriend all week don't mention that you would rather be in Sheffield watching a live band than sat at home watching the England game :(

Never ask "is it in yet"

dump them :)

Just accept that women may at times feel one of the above is the case, even if it isn't, 'tis just better to go with the flow and apologize rather than try and point out that they aren't being rational..

Ask them to explain something they've done wrong (after they admitted doing something wrong of course) :D
