    I think my girl came pretty close to leaving me this weekend. I need to be a better man. I can't lose her.

    I would think that if you feel that way then you probably already know what to do to make sure that your relationship lasts. :)

    Now go do it and smile, you still have that special girl.

    if you were a better man, she probably would have actually left.

    if you have to change yourself in order for her to stay with you then it's not worth it man. it's not working. you may deter her from leaving this time, but you are who you are, and if she doesn't like it now then eventually it will come to an end. find yourself someone who loves you for who you are.

    this is true, but it still may be a good idea for him to try and be a better man.

    Yeah that was my thought. All people should strive for self-improvement. On the other hand if a person has to fundamentally change to stay with someone, then it's probably not working. I don't even think it's fair to ask someone to radically change if you love them.

    The information you gave us doesn't compute. For instance, there is the question, How much better do you need to be? Say you are sleeping with 2 girls besides her so she is jealous, and you stop sleeping with one of them. Is that good enough?

    This.


    Whats actually more likely to happen if you do actually become a 'better' man is she'll get more neurotic and insecure thats she's not good enough and split before she gets dumped for a hotter girlfriend.

    Take relationship advice from all those fabulous american sitcoms, become a fat stupid loser who cant actually manage by himself, marry a girl way out of your league and allow yourself to get totally whipped until your testicles shrivel and shrink to the size of pistachios

    if she want to leave you and you are saying you need to be better men . then you suck .
    you dont know her and she is tired of you . you are asking us how to be better men while ou dont know how she wants you . you had the chance , before to learn her and study her how she wants it .now you lost it .

    Well she dumped me about two weeks ago. Turns out I was not the problem. Her friends UNIVERSALLY have told me that she's bonkers and I'm better off out of there. Apparently I did absolutely nothing but I was so blinded that I'd managed to convince myself that I must of...

    Already have moved well past her. Life is no longer on hold. Meeting up with the real estate agent to start looking at houses again and finishing up my cancer (thyroid) treatment...

    I like how her friends for some reason decide. What ever happened with discussing it with ya man mans.

    edit: Ah, I read that wrong. Well, all is probably for the better then. Don't wanna spend the rest of your life with someone not right for you.

    That was the main problem... We were together for 16 months and she still couldn't truly open up and talk to me... goodbye!

    Her friends didn't decide anything. They simply all informed me after the fact that I was not the problem.
