On the other hand, you need to be able to be good friends with someone you date. Dating someone you wouldn't want to hang around with if you weren't dating them is just... paradox?

I would also highly recommend not dating longtime friends. As much as you think you know about someone, you don't know everything, or even most of what they are like sometimes. I'm not saying your friends are horrible people in secret, but they may surprise you, and if it ends up not working out, you don't want to ruin a good friendship.

I dated my best friend of 6 years, we broke up, and were best friends again right after.

How do I tell a lady I like them?

Superior Bacon · **Posted:** Mon Aug 29, 2011 9:34 pm

Go straight up to her and tell her you like her. It's scary as fuck but it gets the job down.

Good luck.

I don't know how eRelationships start up, if she is electronic.

I totally want to ask this girl out

but I'm just a coward and afraid of rejection

Waiting to ask someone out because you're afraid they'll say no is always a bad thing. If they say no, you'll have wasted all that time and worry over something that could have been resolved right away, and if they say yes, you'll kick yourself for not asking them out earlier, and postponing everything.
Much better to get all that dealt with right away by asking them out/telling them you like them.

I'm not saying it always happens, but it happens a lot.

Didn't happen to me. My lady has been a good friend to me for many years.

When we first started going out we were both sorta stupid and sorta not so versed in this whole relationship thing, but we did have love.

After a year or so things went a bit south. She had a lot of self esteem issues and thought she wasn't good for me, and she was having a lot of family and personal problems and it felt like too much, so we decided to break it off. This actually made us quite a bit more close, because she wasn't always worrying about being a "good girlfriend" and I wasn't constantly worrying about fucking up.

We became best friends, and decided to try again. Now two years later, we're doing just fine.

So long as you lay all your cards on the table as soon as you get them instead of tip toeing around playing puerile mind games, there's really not a lot of room to go wrong.

You gotta know when to hold em.

Know when to fold em.

Know when to walk away

And know when to run.

what about us

Pro tips for fights/arguments:

Never say fuck you and never call the other person a nasty name.

Or say they're a black hole of fun.

Tuxedo Mask and I call each other the worst names that we can imagine. We just be mean to each other for funsies.
