Indefinite Hiatus

Yes that's right boys, we're sorry to say this, but The Guyde is undergoing an indefinite hiatus.

We're sorry if we've abandoned you at your hour of need, or if you still have much to learn, but as you have probably noticed- our posts are declining in quality and length. Responsibilities, work and life have kept us busy, and with changing responsibilities and various other difficulties in life emerging, we have decided to call it quits with The Guyde.

And no, this is not a permanent decision. The Guyde and all its past posts will remain completely intact, and we may or may not someday return.

However, we're still going to be here to help you guys! If you need advice on anything at all, whether it be your naggy girlfriend, your upcoming anniversary or tips for your first date, just drop us an email at theguydemail@gmail.com

Email us too if you want to be kept aware of updates, and we'll drop you an email once we've made a definite decision to re-open The Guyde.

Ways to Cheer a Girl Up

Assuming you are not the cause of it...

What to do?

1. Smile. It the least you can do. Some girls will see you smile and smile too, even if she doesn't do it that you can see. The soul is the best place to smile from!
   
2. Ask her if she's okay.
   
3. Tell her she'd be okay. All people love assurances.
4. Let her know you're there, even if she does not want to talk to you about it. You're there nonetheless just in case she does for some crazy strange reason!
5. Tell her something that sucks that's happened to you. She'd feel you are able to understand. It doesn't matter if you're not supposed to know she's in a bad position or not (if she's trying to keep a straight face)... just slip it in.
   

3 Ways To Find Girls

We’ve received a couple of emails from readers expressing their difficulty in finding decent girls to date. Honestly guys, we’re not that hard to find, we’re quite frankly sitting here waiting for your move! So where do you meet girls/ how do you find them?

1. Start by actually looking around you. Often, we go to school/work with all potentially datable people- we just don’t seem to register them as that. Instead, we choose to hold them by the first impressions we give them, and don’t give ourselves a chance to go out and get to know them for who they really are. So look around you. That girl there, have you ever actually made the effort to ask her about herself? What if she too, is looking for someone like you? Go surprise her, surprise yourself.

2. Go out, expose yourself! Each time you go out, think of it as an advertisement for yourself. The more you go out, the more people see your advertisements, the better chance of someone being interested.

3. Act interested. Talk to girls, flirt with them, get their attention. How are your potential dates supposed know you’re interested if they don’t even know of you? Just make sure the attention you receive isn’t negative publicity though- going out and getting yourself wasted isn’t cool.

What She Thinks Of Your Friends

It's important that your girlfriend likes your friends- but it's also important she doesn't like your friends too much, if you get what I mean. What you want to achieve:

She likes your friends in a friendly way. The signs:

• she regularly hangs around them
• she seems to genuinely enjoy herself in their company
• she talks abut things they have done with you when you're alone
• she doesn't mind having to hang around them
• when she's in their presence and you're not there, it's not all awkward and silence
  
• her friends are friends with your friends

However, these two can be bad, particularly the second:

She hates your friends.

• she loudly expresses her dislike: sighs when you make her hang out with them, complaints, etc
• she wouldn't hang out with your friends unless you convinced her to
• she is normally talkative around you, but is really cold to your friends
• when you're not there, she doesn't attempt to make conversation with your friends
• she hates it when you can't be with her because you're doing something with your mates

She likes your friends... a little too much.

• Yep, she definitely hangs around them all the time
• she laughs harder at their jokes than yours (and not just because you're unfunny)
• she flirts with them (see this post, but apply it to your friends)
• she's spending time with them when you're not around
• she's starting to spend more time when them than you

Your girlfriend's relationship with your friends is vital. Monitor and observe it well.

Things Girls Love In Guys

If you're:

• good humored - guys who are easily amused turn a lot of girls on (don't overdo it if it's not you. If you go out of your way to laugh at things that are not even funny lame, it'd shine right through!)
• You are within reason. Why do we like people who possess dicks? Because it means that they don't experience something called PMS. So if a guy is hot and is cold, he is not something that attracts females who are already these things!
• You are smart and not ignorant. You are aware of your environment, you are aware of the world. You don't need to top all your classes, no no. But you must know what is happening so people can discuss things with you in an intelligent matter.
• You are not petty. Sure, we're all about equality these days but it is one of the oldest known fact to mankind that men should not be pettier than his girlfriend. Remember. Tight ass = good. Tight AS ass = not good! I know the line is too fine, but please find it sooner than later.
• You are not self conceited. You are not the most important thing, and she understands that. It's just more convenient when you understands it as well.
• You do not drone on and on about something completely insignificant.
• You know when it is charming and when to stop before it gets overly sluttily flirtatious.
• You are quite charming! You are not a slut, though and does make her feel like she's just 'one of the chicks he flirts with'.
