      Perhaps you could start with a new surname?

        Dear Friend,

        Nobody is a relationship guru in the world. A good relationship builds when you and your friend want, otherwise no relationship, no love and anything else.

        Thanks

        Too funny...





        To the OP,

        I'd pick "B" because taking advice from a woman would be like taking advice from your mom.

    Both actually. You never want to limit yourself to just one side of things. The more advice you can get, the more accuracy you can derive from all of it based on looking at commonalities, as well as, different perspectives. Both have their downsides and upsides. The man will know what it's like to date and be in relationships with different women, but will also not know exactly all things women are thinking or motivations. Women will be able to understand what a woman wants more, but will also tell you things like, you should be a "nice guy" that's "sensitive", etc as well as tell you that looks mean nothing. The same way that girls that you're friends with will sometimes say, "I've got a beautifully, gorgeous girl that will be perfect for you," and it turns out they are unattractive with a good personality. You don't want a new chick friend, you want a date or girlfriend and they are just looking at how awesome they are on the inside but are not taking into account something that they all know. Men are firstly attracted to looks way before we are to personality. So, I would listen to both and see what works and what they have in common. If they both say something, then you should probably heed that bit of advice. Just my opinion.

    I found that girls that are friends are easier to talk to...Guys would just be like o well forget her...and girls would show empathy and would want it to work out for them...Guys would most likely say only two things can happen...you make up or break up...

    When it comes to trying to make the right decision why do we as people always look elsewhere for advice. I use to be like that until I started watching my friend who made very sound decisions and was always confident in his choice and for the most part he was always right about the moves to make. One day we were talking and he said something that stuck out to me, he said I've been through enough in my life to evaluate each situation thoroughly to make the best decision for me. Ever since then I took that mindset and not only do I feel better about decisions I have more control over situations and I became a more confident that I have the answer.

    sorry so long...

    It really doesn't matter which gender you choose. If you have a problem with your relationship, communicate with your partner, not with gurus.
    If you need support, ask your friends who are happy with their relationship or a close friend with a sound judgement. Make sure you assess the situation before drawing any conclusions.

    According to me, you better not to listen to any of them, just listen to your own heart, your own brain, because no one in this world knows you better than yourself.
