Book Preview:

#1 If you’re not sure whether or not you’re in a relationship with a man, the best way to find out is to define it. This means having the talk, and it can be scary, but it’s important.

#2 If your boyfriend doesn't make you his plus one at important events, it's a clear indication that he doesn't consider you his girlfriend. Have a conversation with him and explain that you want to be his social steady, not his side girl.

#3 When you try to act like a guy's girl you run the risk of being treated like one of the guys. A man who offers sweet nothings in the bedroom but only fist bumps when outside it doesn't see you as a girlfriend, but a girl who's willing to sleep with him.

#4 If a guy is thinking about other women or coming on to them in front of you, he’s not your boyfriend. If he’s trying to justify this by claiming that he feels bad for your roommate, he’s delusional.

#1

If you’re not sure whether or not you’re in a relationship with a man, the best way to find out is to define it. This means having the talk, and it can be scary, but it’s important.

#2

If your boyfriend doesn't make you his plus one at important events, it's a clear indication that he doesn't consider you his girlfriend. Have a conversation with him and explain that you want to be his social steady, not his side girl.

#3

When you try to act like a guy's girl you run the risk of being treated like one of the guys. A man who offers sweet nothings in the bedroom but only fist bumps when outside it doesn't see you as a girlfriend, but a girl who's willing to sleep with him.

#4

If a guy is thinking about other women or coming on to them in front of you, he’s not your boyfriend. If he’s trying to justify this by claiming that he feels bad for your roommate, he’s delusional.

#5

I met my boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend at a party, and the sexual undertones were deafening. My boyfriend did not speak to me the entire evening. He conversed with no one except for his ex-girlfriend with the porn star tits.

#6

When you’re the only one initiating contact between you and your man, consider whether he wants to spend time with you because he likes you or because it’s convenient and he has nothing else to do. If your guy blows you off or frequently forgets your plans to hang out, he may consider you a backup plan rather than a first choice.

#7

Texting while waiting for help is a great way to get attention, but it is also a great way to get ignored. While waiting for help, try not to get distracted by your phone.

#8

It doesn’t matter if a guy has told you he’s not interested in having a girlfriend. Don’t assume that he’s changed his mind about being coupled just because he acts like a boyfriend.

#9

When you meet a guy who tells you he doesn’t want a relationship, don’t overstep the boundary. He may be telling you the truth.

#10

There is nothing worse than wondering whether or not you are someone’s girlfriend. If you’re willing to go that far, you should be willing to ask him if he’s your boyfriend.

While some women are fine with relationships based on sex, others are not.
