Ask a Dude: Why’s He Being So Flakey?
Dear Dude, So, I met this guy at a bar a few weeks ago. He is a little bit older (27 and I’m 22). He made some small talk with me and my friend, we left, I didn’t give him another thought. Then, a week or so later we run into him again. He asks if we remember him, we say we do but can’t remember his name. The thing is, he remembers my name and a few small comments that I had made to him, and ends up buying me a drink and asking for my phone number before leaving.
Ask a Dude: What’s With the Cryptic Texts?
Dear Dude,
Get ready for a toughy—the way this guy has demonstrated interest in me is far beyond my comprehension. He started flirting with me in October: sitting next to me in class, texting me nonstop, asking if I had a boyfriend, etc. I was very receptive and flirtatious back, but nothing happened. Physically speaking, the most we ever did was hug one another. But sometimes when he texts me, they’re very direct and sexual.

Ask a Dude: How Do I Make Him Trust Me Again?
Dear Dude,
I need the perspective of a man. Please help. My boyfriend and I have in a LDR for the past year because he’s studying abroad. Four months ago, I broke up with him for stupid reasons and I thought he would never take me back so I got drunk out of my mind and ended up hooking up with his best friend.
Ask a Dude: Why Won’t He Finish?
Dear Dude, I’ve been seeing this guy for about a month, roughly. He takes me out on actual dates, always wants to hang out, and is fun to talk to. Basically, I’m pretty sure that he’s into me. The problem is that the few times that we’ve had sex, he hasn’t finished. We’ll go at it for over an hour and although I’ve enjoyed myself, he won’t orgasm at all!
Ask a Dude: Am I a Trophy Girlfriend?
Dude,
I am dating this guy who everyone else thinks is this amazing guy. And I guess from what they see, he is pretty amazing. He is constantly telling me how beautiful I am, how wonderful I am, and how lucky he is. Now, that’s all great and sh*t, but after hearing it 24/7, I stop believing him. Is something wrong with me? I guess I should tell you a bit more…
Ask a Dude: Why Did My LDR End When We Were Finally Together?
Dear Dude, My long distance 3-year boyfriend broke up with me 3 weeks ago. We became really close and honestly the relationship was really easy. He never cheated and he always called and texted. And I thought waiting for him to come home was right. Yet, 3 years later, we are both 10 min away from each other and he decided to break up with me 7 days before V-Day.
Ask a Dude: Ding Dong Ditched
Dear Dude,
I’ve got a bit of a dilemma on my hands. I’ve never had a boyfriend. I’ve come close, but no guy ever wanted to be more than a fling or something other than a friend. I have been perpetually pushed into the friend zone. Something of a specialty of mine. I suppose in compliment to me, most guys I’ve hooked up with in the past have always wanted to maintain an active friendship with me and are usually making the bigger effort. All the while making it clear they want nothing else.

Ask A Dude: Totally Mindf**ked
A few days ago, we went out to a club, and I thought here was where something could potentially happen if we were all drinking. (That’s the way we all do it, right?) Alcohol flowing through my veins, I attempted once more to be friendly, and sorta danced with him…. and…..nada.
Ask a Dude: Can a Virgin Ever Find Love?
Dear Dude, I’m still a virgin. I’ve had my fair share of “almosts” and do enjoy the occasional heavy petting but I have yet to go “all the way.” I’m not waiting for marriage but I am waiting for a serious relationship with someone I can trust. I used to be confident in my decision and felt no pressure to lose my virginity…
Ask a Dude: Why’d He Act Like a Boyfriend?
Dear Dude,
Over the summer, I met this really great guy at work; there was definitely a mutual attraction between us. With every conversation we had, we found out we had a lot in common with each other. I was about to ask him out, but then found out he had a girlfriend. Needless to say, I didn’t ask him out and things stopped there…
Ask a Dude: Is Asking for Clarification a Relationship Death Sentence?
Hey Dude, I just turned 20 and am a sophomore in college. I have plenty of friends, but I have never had a boyfriend. I have hooked up with random guys, with only one being “considerable” for something more. We were set up and hit it off right away, however it all changed when I asked where it was going (relationship or hook up) after a month of us going out…
Seventeen Says the Darndest Things: February Edition
Nothing makes me happier than seeing Leighton Meester’s (unbelievably beautiful) face on the cover of a magazine. I mean, she’s not only one of the best-looking and most stylish (minus that whole weird, lacy jumpsuit debacle) people in Hollywood, she’s also one of the most underrated.
Ask a Dude: Can I Ask for a Second Shot?
Hey Dude, This is my freshman year of college and before I was really nieve. I’ve hooked up with plenty of guys here, but I had a really fun night a few months ago and the guy and I started talking on a regular basis. He always texted me first and invited me to do things with him or him and his group of friends. I was really excited because he was my ideal guy and I (now regrettably) kept on telling myself he was better than me.
Ask a Dude: Does Making Out Make Me Slutty?
Hi Dude, I recently met a great guy through one of my best friends from college. We hit it off right away, and really get along and have a good time together. One night, we all went back to their other friend’s house and slept there after the bars, where Boy and I just made out. No drunken hookup – I thought that was good!
Ask A Dude: How Do I Handle a Shy Guy?
Hi Dude, I just wanted to know what your thoughts are on the whole ‘He’s Just Not That Into You’ phenomenon. I should start by saying that I’ve read the book, and a lot of what it says makes sense in theory… But, here’s the thing: There is this guy at work that I’ve only bumped into like 3 or 4 times, but he’s really cute and we seem to have fun talking to each other.
Ask A Dude: What If I’m Not Ready?
Dear Dude, I have been dating my boyfriend for two months or so now. Unfortunately, he goes to another college and we don’t see each other as often as we would like. Neither of us dated in high school; neither of us has any experience with dating or sex. Recently, the time we do have together has been getting very sexual.
