There\u2019s no reason you should date him and I\u2019ll tell you how to get rid of him and make it 100% impossible for him to misunderstand you in a second.<\/p>\n<p>But\u00a0<strong>if you\u2019re just not \u201csure\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0if he\u2019s somebody you want to be with or not (if you\u2019re at least a LITTLE attracted to him, think there\u2019s the possibility that there could be something there and that he could be a great guy)<strong>\u00a0you owe it to yourself and to him to at least give him a SHOT<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Because\u00a0first impressions\u00a0are often absolute BS.<\/p>\n<p>When I first met my girlfriend, I was incredibly drunk and dressed like a lounge lizard version of Santa. If she\u2019d let her first impression color what she thought of me and didn\u2019t give me a chance (and if I didn\u2019t pursue her like the grand feast of a woman she is), we wouldn\u2019t be celebrating our 3 year anniversary now.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I know.\u00a0<strong>You\u2019re afraid<\/strong>\u00a0that if you crack that door open even just a little, a guy \u201cwon\u2019t take the hint,\u201d will pry it open with a crowbar and suddenly you\u2019ll be his \u201cGirlfriend\u201d without even knowing what the heck happened (and why are you suddenly wearing a French Maid outfit?\u201d)<\/p>\n<p>Which actually brings us to our second question:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How do you take things SLOW with a guy so you don\u2019t get overwhelmed and end up over your head?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Not everybody needs this, but with the track record you\u2019re showing, you need to have some\u00a0<strong>\u201cDating Rules Of Engagement.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your \u201cDating Rules of Engagement\u201d are just that: *Rules* you have around\u00a0<strong>dating, love and sex<\/strong>\u00a0that you\u2019re<strong>\u00a0not allowed to bend or break<\/strong>\u00a0under ANY circumstances no matter what.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>These rules are here for a few reasons:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>1. To keep you\u00a0<strong>from getting in over your head<\/strong>\u00a0and either destroying something that could have been good\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>2. To keep you from ending up with \u201c<strong>The wrong guy<\/strong>\u201d because you don\u2019t know how to say no.<\/p>\n<p>3. To help you maintain your\u00a0<strong>independence<\/strong>\u00a0no matter what.<\/p>\n<p>Great question. They can vary for everybody, but here\u2019s what I recommend for you:<\/p>\n<p>1. Unless both you and a guy make an<strong>\u00a0EXPLICIT decision to be a couple<\/strong>, you will consider yourself and will continue to\u00a0<strong>act as a single woman<\/strong>\u00a0(which means being at least a little open to other guys.)<\/p>\n<p>2. For the first TWO MONTHS of dating a guy, you\u2019ll set an unbreakable rule to only<strong>\u00a0see him once per week<\/strong>\u00a0(and only on a scheduled date.)<\/p>\n<p>3. You\u00a0<strong>won\u2019t have sex with a guy for the first month<\/strong>\u00a0that you\u2019re dating (even if you really want to.) (Making out is OK and really fun.)<\/p>\n<p>4. You\u00a0<strong>won\u2019t agree to be anyone\u2019s \u201cgirlfriend\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0or be a couple with a guy unless you\u2019ve been dating him for at least TWO FULL MONTHS (even if you really want to.)<\/p>\n<p>5. If a guy starts sending you too many texts, emails or phone calls, you\u2019ll enforce a rule of only\u00a0<strong>getting back to him one full day after he messages you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Etc.<\/p>\n<p>Like I said, these rules can really vary depending on who you are, but with your level of sensitivity and openness, it seems to me that\u00a0<strong>you really need to set up non-negotiable barriers<\/strong>\u00a0about how you interact with guys and how much exposure you give your heart.<\/p>\n<p>Which brings us to your FIRST question\u2026<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do you let a guy know that you\u2019re 100% not interested in him<\/strong>\u00a0and that even though you\u2019re a charming, lovely, emotionally open woman, that does NOT mean he has a chance of sleeping with you\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>And the answer is . . .<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ilOx2Jmm1r4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-mp-url-id=\"_c4675741e208c0f7a24f00897f5481f50084b60f\">You send him a link to this Youtube Video . . .<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not only hilarious, but it gets the point across REALLY well and with enough humor that you won\u2019t necessarily completely crush his heart.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Oh, and here\u2019s a BONUS QUESTION, Theo asks\u2026<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><strong>\u201cHi Mike I have been seeing a guy for a couple of months and last week I found he would have cheated.

It doesn\u2019t really matter one iota to me whether you should put everything into a text or if you should see him face to face.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is that for whatever reason,\u00a0<strong>you felt the need to ENTRAP this guy into showing that he \u201cwould have cheated.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0I don\u2019t know this guy and I don\u2019t know if he actually would have cheated or not (or how much incredible \u201cbait\u201d you put into the messages you sent him, but that\u2019s pretty darned toxic behavior.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EVERY man and EVERY woman would cheat in the right situation and with the right circumstances<\/strong>\u00a0(though everybody\u2019s circumstances are different.)<\/p>\n<p>If I found out a girl \u201cTested\u201d me like that (even if I passed) I\u2019d dump her like a ton of bricks and would never even speak to her again.
