Ask A Woman: She Has Feelings For An Ex - Part 1

Dear BC, I'm dating a girl, we're in love, and we have both stated that we want to be married and that we have never felt a love like this in our lives. We have talked extensively about marriage, our futures, and how strong our love is for each other. Now, we were moving forward with engagement (ring purchasing, talking to parents) and out of the blue, she told me that she has feelings for her ex-boyfriend and she doesn't know what that means. She said it may be nothing, but she misses him and doesn't know if that means she cares for him or just that she misses something comfortable. She said she wants to talk with him, and I don't like that... Read More

Hey there, Rachel. I feel like I know you because you're on the site. I was wondering if you could answer my all-time girl question: Is the women's restroom that much nicer than a guy's restroom, and if it is...why? Thank you, and good job on the site - you guys are funny. -Tyler Dear Tyler, Thanks for your kind words. A lesson to all readers, blatant flattery is DEFINITELY one way to get your question answered. A bouquet of bacon roses would also do the trick. As for your question, I had to really examine the fine print on my woman card before I was even able to consider answering. I think I might be blurring the line a bit,... Read More

How do I find a girl who's into beards? I have one (a beard - not a girl), and I feel like most girls don't like them. Is that true? -RJ Emily's Take: The good news is that I know women that do find beards attractive but it is going to take all of my strength to not offer you advice that simply states "shave your beard." I fall into the category of women that do not like kissing men with beards. That being said, a beard is not usually a relationship deal breaker. If I'm into a guy, I'm going to be open to dating him whether or not he has a beard, a mustache, bleached hair or is going bald. The state of your beard says a lot about you, the... Read More

Hello, I'm an 18 year old guy who found out a week before my birthday that my 16 year old teenage girlfriend is pregnant. First off, is it illegal to continue having sex with her in Missouri? In addition to an already scary time for myself, her parents are legitimately crazy. They will say one thing yet do another, lie to me and her about ridiculous things, I know my girlfriend wants an abortion and doesn't want to keep the baby, but since she is a minor her parents aren't allowing abortion or any other option then to keep it. I care about her, but I don't want to be stuck with child support, should I just try to keep the relationship... Read More

In a James Blunt situation i.e. on a subway or passing on the street, how can a man quickly flirt/grab her attention, get a number, and continue on about his business as to not be late to wherever it is he is going? -C. Moore Emily's Take: I’ve got some bad news for you, in most passing situations a woman is going to think you are a desperate creep and not even reply to your attempt at conversation. She’ll suddenly get a phone call (even though her phone didn’t ring or vibrate) and have to shift her attention. This is probably the most difficult way to meet someone and my concern is if you find someone willing to give you their number in... Read More

Dear Bro Council, Can commitment also scare women? I am 24, work for a successful touring band, and consider myself a stand up guy. This girl in particular comes to about a show a month, always gravitates towards me, and compliments me with the nicest genuine thoughts. After 6 months of this pattern I decided to take her out to find out for sure. First date was a rock show. We enjoyed the night, talked, and danced. We mutually made a connection that wasn't based on sex. Her birthday came up a week later, so I contacted her to wish her a happy birthday and received no response. Which I found to be confusing and... Read More
