Move On

Things you should never say to your guy! Sure, you can spill your heart to him, but some things are better left unsaid.

• Stay hush: "I want a break!"

Don't tell him you want a break unless you REALLY mean it. When we argue, we say hurtful things that we don't mean. It might feel great to scream and say "I don't want to see you again!", but he might take it seriously and give you exactly what you want.

Do say: "I need five minutes alone to calm down." When you feel better, sit with him and work through your issues. It's always better than simply ranting and throwing a tantrum.

• Stay hush: "I still think about my ex."

Memories of your ex are for you alone. Your current beau doesn't want ot need to hear about him. Don't rant about him either, and whatever you do, don't compare both guys with each other. You don't want your boyfriend to have second thoughts about you.

Do say: Nothing. Why ruin something that could blossom into something really beautiful? Forget about your old flame, girl!

DON'T EVEN: "Your friend is HOT!"

It's okay to think his best pal is a total babe, but keep the drooling apart. Your guy might get upset, and worry about losing you to his friend! What if he picks a fight with his buddy (or you!), because he thinks there's something fishy going on between you two?

Do say: "(insert his friend's name) is such a great person!" Make it known to your boy that you like hanging out with his best friend as he's fun to be with.

• Stay hush: "is this your first kiss?"

You and your boy are about to kiss. His lips draw closer to yours, and then... he plants a super-sloppy one on you. Okaaay! He's never locked lips with a girl before, but there's no need to question him about the obvious.

Do say: "Hey sweetie, I'd like it better if you kiss me this way." Show him how you life to be kissed, but don't embarrass him. It's a guy thing to want to appear cool. confident and experienced.

• Stay hush: "I tell my best friend EVERYTHING!"

That's enough to make anyone feel paranoid! Your guy needs to know he can share with his innermost secrets with you your girlfriends in the know.

Do say: "Your secrest are safe with me." It's not okay to tell your BFF things your guy told you in confidence. Rlationships should be built on trust.

DON'T EVEN: "You're such a loser!"

So he failed his driving test or lost a football match, but don't rub it in! He's already hurting. It's the I-believe-in-you-no-matter-what rule. your guy needs someone who still believe him, even though he failed.

Do say: "you lost the game, but i'm positive you'll do better next time." all he needs is someone who'll stand by his side.

• Stay hush: "Where is this relationship heading?"

Nowhere, if that's what your attitude. guys want a girlfriend who's fun, not onw who;s constantly worrying about the future. he'll see it as a major pressure! his actions (or non-actions) will tell you where the relationship is going. if things are working, most of the time, the question doesn't need to be asked!

Do say: "i like how our relationship is developing so far." you'll know if it's right, so go with the flow and enjoy the ride! relationship take time to develop.

DON'T EVEN: "Sarah's boyfriend did/bought this and that for her."

It's a turn-off when you keep saying how impressed you are with someone's else boyfriend. your guy might think you're being materialistic and shallow.

do say: "It'd be nice if you (fll in the blank) once in a while for me." Drop hints. if he still doesn't get it, why not just tell him exactly what's on your mind?
