Ask a Dude: Can We Be Just FWB?
Dude, My best guy friend and I started hooking up 4 weeks ago after a kinda testing the waters to see if we were both interested in becoming more then friends. I am OK with being a FWB but am also OK with more. That being said, I am having a hard time reading his signals. He has always been the guy who will come pick me up and go to dinner, or just hang out and watch TV. He’s a nice guy.
Ask a Dude: I Want a Second Chance!
Dearest Dude, I’ve waited for a second chance with this guy that I’m crazy for. I’d do anything for him and he is amazing. We get along so well. About a year ago, we had a fallout because of my mistake of telling him I love him. I’m back with him, but not romantically…

Ask A Dude: Help Me With My Game!
Yo Dude, I’m just going to start this off by saying that I have no game, whatsoever. I think this is mostly due to the fact that I’m pretty shy and don’t really speak up when I want something. If I meet a guy that is good looking or seems nice, I normally won’t go after him unless he shows some interest first.
Ask A Dude: Am I Intimidating?
Dear Mr. Dude, What is going on here! I am 21 and still haven’t had a serious relationship. Granted I do move around a lot, but still! Many of my friends both girls and guys wonder why I don’t have a boyfriend and I can never answer. My family says its because guys are intimidated by me
Ask A Dude: Too Much Too Soon?
Hey dude, I find myself constantly single, and I’m wondering if it’s because i’m too “forward.” I’ve been told I’m the “dateable” type and that I’m pretty, but I think sometimes I tend to rush things with guys a little bit. For example, this guy asked me on a date a week ago, and it was great! I’ve known him for a while through mutual friends, and I was really flattered he asked me.
Ask A Dude: Awkward Encounter With The Ex
Dear Dudeness, OK, so I need your help. My ex dumped me about 8 months ago saying that we needed space. I called BS and we didn’t talk after that. But yesterday we were talking, just catching up and I was secretly checking to see if he was with someone. Well he ended up inviting me to a party and so I went.
Ask A Dude: Is He Not Over His Exes?
Dear Dude, Ever since I’ve been with my boyfriend, I’ve noticed something a little weird. He talks about his exes, a lot. He’ll bring up random comments (“that house looks like ___’s house”) or just tell me stories when something reminds him. It’s mainly two girls that he talks about, that he was with for 3 and 5 years. Honestly, I really don’t want to hear these stories…

Ask A Dude: The Big “I Love You”
Hey Dude,
I’m a junior in college and last year I started dating one of the most amazing guys ever. He and I have been together for over 6 months now. Last month I told him that I loved him, because I do. I am absolutely in love with him. His response? “Thank you. That was very brave of you.”
Ask A Dude: Am I Wasting My Time?
Dear Dude, So I met this guy. We hung out for about a week before he kissed me. It escalated from there and I ended up spending the night at his house. I didn’t sleep with him, but I did mess around with him. He was really sweet and in the morning he asked me what I thought we were and where I wanted this to go.
Ask A Dude: Exiting the Friend Zone
Hey Dude, How the heck do you get out of the friend zone? It seems like everyone thinks it is only a problem for guys but girls go through the same problem as well. I have a guy friend for a few years now and I would love for it to be something more. He is a definition of a player and basically can get whoever he wants.
Ask A Dude: Can I Call Him?
Hey Dude, Could you clue me into “boy world”? I have been told (thank you He’s Just Not That Into You and pretty much every romance book and movie out there) that the guy needs to do the asking. So we very impatient girls need to give out our numbers and take theirs and then not call them.
Ask A Dude: Help Me Help My Man
Alright Dude, here goes: I’ve been dating my boyfriend for two years now and I love him to pieces. Our relationship is pretty great except there is one thing that is bothering me: his acne. He’s 21 and still has acne all over his face, back, and chest. Understandably, this can be a major turnoff for me sometimes (getting up close and personal with whiteheads isn’t really sexy).

Ask A Dude: Am I a Bitch?
Hey Dude, OK so this may seem really lame but for some reason guys NEVER sit near me in class. I feel like I’m giving off a bad impression but I really don’t understand. Me and my friends have been analyzing the situation (mostly just cracking jokes about how I look like a big reject) and we can’t figure it out.
