Good strategy to resolve problems. Followed the same approach recently and suddenly most of my problems have all gone away!!

When the pair of you speak of ditching, is that just a metaphor, or are you physically driving them out to a layby on a poorly-acknowledged B road?

I dish out great advice, yet am spectacularly bad at applying it to my own life. Weird, huh?

Actually that’s not strictly true. After my break-up at the turn of the year, I pledged to throw myself into new situations and say ‘yes’ a lot more, even if (no, especially if) it put me into situations out of my comfort zone. From my experience it’s really good for you!

I say yes all the time. I am not always listening when I say yes, so I often say yes to things I really shouldn’t have said yes to.

“Yes love, you said you were going to put one of your balls through a meat grinder for charity. Yes you did! We told you the proceeds were going to the cheer team, remember?”

I don’t remember. Have better luck with that yes yap than I did, sir.

OK, so my friend heard about this legendary agony uncle advice thread and asked me to ask this question on her behalf.

Man advice needed for the following scenario:

Hot guy asks for friend’s phone number on an evening out. Friend exchanges number with hot guy, and excitedly waits for communication the following day…but none is forth coming.

Should friend:

a) wait it out

b) send humourous text

c) phone, and declare undying love

Lou, speaking as a hot guy – I’m having one of my flushes – I feel that c) has the whiff of neediness and desperation about it. Personally, unless it’s very late on a Saturday night and no other option is available, I’ve never been a great fan of neediness and desperation in a woman. However, I’ve never been a great fan of making the first move either, which rules out a); therefore, I guess that the answer is b).

I wish you – sorry, I mean your friend – good luck with whichever option you decide to pursue.

ok ok don’t panic coxford lou i am here to assist with your - i mean ur ‘friend’ problem!

First thing to remember, is there may be a perfectly reasonable explanation why this bro has not been in touch. Maybe his wife has caught wind of his activities, and he needs to lay low. Maybe he lives on the streets and has only got enough money from begging to buy special brew or phone credit, but not both. Maybe his herpes is flaring up. This is why you should be patient, because we do not know his circumstances.

But, the patient bird does not get her mouth on the worm! You do need to make some effort. Phone contact is unreliable - that is why no-one under 40 uses phone numbers for courting - you can never be entirely sure if ur being ignored. v.difficult to use a phone number for stalking. You would have done better to find out his username.

Best thing to do, that I would recommend, is to fix it so that you accidentally run into him. This is v.easily done. He may have mentioned i.e. that he works in Argos. Argos is just example though, you will have to rack ur brain to remember exactly where he works. Think hard! Did he say, at some point, something along the lines of, “Yes Louise, I have a job. I work in Argos.”?

If so, you’re all set!

Go to his place of work, first thing Monday morning, and demand to see him, on some pretext. You will need a good pretext, because secretaries etc are probably used to birds trying to track down this playa, and are prob expert in giving jilted conquests the old brusheroo. So it will need to be something convincing. I would suggest you claim to be police officer from Operation Yewtree, come to interview him re: suspicious internet activity. This should get you through the front door v.easily. What you do after that, is dependant on you!

You will be taken to a private office, probably, and after a period of time, he will be brought to you. I should take this time, to start crying, and undressing. When he enters the room and finds you weeping and nude, he will be caught off guard, and we will be able to establish his True Feelings. It may go one of three ways, and you may not necessarily like his reaction, but at least you will Know.

Hope this helps. Happy hunting!

Hi Dr Rosenpenis,

Thank you so much for the detailed advice. I have run this past my friend, and she had a question. Which hairstyle would be most effective for the nude/crying moment to make sure his True Feeling go the way she wants:

a) sexy secretary up do

b) beach babe waves

c) super sleek straight

Thanking you in advance.

You mean b) the humourous text?

I’m still waiting for that one, Lou :wink:

i actually got caught out by that one time internet dating. She put on her profile she had “hair down to her knees”, so when she turned up with a short bob, i accused her of misrepresenting herself. But she hadn’t.

Sorry, Bear, had to down vote you for that. If a lady chooses to go au naturel then she should be admired for being her own person and not following trends set by the porn industry.

no lou, as you know my mum is a Merican and actually served under the Bush administration, so you can hardly accuse me of prejudice.

It’s prob this constant trigger-happy downvoting that is hinder ur sexlife! Bro has prob heard about this, and is worried you’ll give the appearance of his todger a hasty downvote, before he’s even had time to explain it.

Not at all Dr Rosenpenis. I think all men are beautiful. I wouldn’t down vote anyone.

Never trust a man who has too much to say for themselves on a football forum.

GOTCHA.

I’m liking your line of thinking Mr Claus. Would it be possible to elaborate?
