In your dating/relationship history, what valuable lessons have you learned?

[Zapp Brannigan]

• Assert your authority.
• Don't put up with bullshyt - but be reasonable and measured in your responses.
• If you let her walk all over you, she'll eventually walk out on you.
• Challenge her from time to time, even if it's in just a playful way, just to keep her on her toes.
• Relax, relax, relax on the jealousy. If you tell her that you trust her, ball's in her court and you're not responsible for her actions.
• Don't let her see you get mad.
• Constantly work to become a better YOU.
• Be inventive with ideas of cool and fun things to do. Creativity and ingenuity keep the most beautiful and exciting women around.
• If she doesn't cook and clean for you, then she shouldn't be shocked when you split the bill.

All I could think of. Highlighted the most important to me.

Don't fukk with women that like animal prints. They're all bad news.

Don't get too comfortable in your relationship that you let yourself go.

Don't ignore the signs.

99% of the time, the past should be left in the past.

Don't put up with mistreatment from someone just to remain friends/lovers.

 

[Drew Wonder]

don't rush into anything

don't date someone just because you know they won't let you smash until you guys are "official." that's a terrible foundation for a relationship

if you don't have to play games/tricks, don't have to use any of the tips in the "quick gems on dealing with women" thread, don't have to front like you're the shyt, can still act like the complete loser/cornball you really are and she's still into you...she's wifey material

good point

 

[CrimsonTider]

good point

Not a good point, because animal print is a trend and all women wear it.

Don't take relationship advice from @Mowgli @mr somebody @crackface

 

[R.O. Double]

Loyalty over love.

They always say the people who love you are the ones who hurt you the most.
If the loyalty is stronger than the love then it won't happen.
Someone loyal to you wouldn't hurt you.

 

[Sierra Mist]

They all just want to hurt you in the end after they've drained you of everything. :/

Sounds like there's a good story behind this one...

 

[Crakface]

If she doesnt give you money, do your laundry, buy you gifts, give you skully, give sex on demand and obey you, she dont love you.

 

[Seea]

When a mofo asks for a break, disappear.

If he can't keep his female friends in check, disappear.

Someone with dismal self-esteem is still going to have dismal self-esteem no matter how many times you tell them you love them. Don't try to raise it; it's not your responsibility.

 

[JoelB]

Let the person you're dating show their true colors on their own. Dont project a personality on to them based off assumptions.

If they're acting like a dumbass, dont try to create excuses to change that fact.
If they acting like a stand up person, dont try and take resentment from past relationships to turn their behavior into a negative.

Observe and proceed objectively.

 

[Rell]

bytches aint shyt...

If you're together just for the kid you'll be miserable.

This thread is already better than the dealing with women thread.
