    AskApril has given safe and professional advice that I really liked, and I think you should follow it too.
    If he’s been flirting for four months and not making a move, chances are he’s just having fun without any responsibility.
    Stop flirting and directly ask them out on a date to find out if they are serious or not.

    Ask April was right that, if you don’t want friendship but a date, you’ll have to stop being friends.
    If you want to get out of it, ask her out on a date. If she says no, leave the friendship behind. Be civil, be flirtatious, but make her realize that you’re interested in dating, not friendship.
    If she’s not ‘ready,’ don’t be ready to sit in the ‘waiting room’ either. Be the prize, not the backup plan.

    A guy who is willing to throw away a two-year relationship for a one-week ‘underground’ crush is not long-term material. Go to university, meet new people, and throw away that ‘little baby’ tag for good!

    Career is a matter of course, but don’t link your self-worth to a job. You built someone else’s career. That means you have skills. Use those skills for yourself.
    And I agree with AskApril that instead of focusing on your boyfriend, you should focus on your job search, increase your networking, go to the gym, and put your energy into productive activities so that your own professional growth.

    Don’t reply to his “hey good. U” at all. When someone ignores you and then responds with such a low-effort response a month later, they are not wasting your time. Leaving them on the scene is the biggest power move.
    And AskApril gave the right advice that you shouldn’t be clingy or disheartened, but rather enjoy your life. If they happen to talk, that’s fine; otherwise, you should step back.

    Remember, he’s your GM. Power in the workplace often forces people to retreat. Maybe after the night at the hotel, he realized that his career could be at risk. So he’s ghosting you.
    If he is ignoring you, ignore him too. When you give him space, he will realize that you are not after him. Be professional, keep up the work, and act completely normal, as if he is not of any particular importance to you.

    Wow, April, you really gave a great, to-the-point talk. I liked your point that one person’s happiness in a relationship isn’t enough, which is quite profound, and it’s something people often overlook. Instead of getting caught up in emotions.
    And your posts suggest the guy isn’t mature enough to stay in one place. The spark he was getting from outside is not being found in the relationship.
    And April gave the right advice that it depends on you now whether you want to be with him or not, but you have to accept the fact that the boy wanted to play the field.

    AskApril is right that “whisper down the lane” increases misunderstandings. Lizzie may have been trying to help from the bottom of her heart, but sometimes our help only makes someone’s relationship more complicated.
    You shouldn’t interfere in your friend’s relationship.
    And I would also say that instead of controlling the lives of others, you should focus on your own life.

    After a five-year relationship ends, a person’s mind is a little foggy. I think you should first acknowledge your breakup publicly and spend some time alone. It’s hard to start a new relationship until the old one is completely gone.
    And don’t keep Roger in the dark; tell him that you broke up. If he is a true friend, he will give you time and not put pressure on you.
    Meanwhile, I would appreciate Ask April’s advice, and she was right that you are moving too quickly. You haven’t even had a date yet, and you are thinking about the future. Go on a date first, and then see how big an issue sports is.

    Don’t have two hours to spare? No big deal. Surely you’ve got 10 minutes? Stop waiting for a ‘marathon sex’ session amidst all that college stress. Use the adrenaline! Whether it’s a hidden corner in the library or a quick break between study sessions, a 5-minute ‘steamy session’ can drop your stress levels to $0$
    April was right to “be patient”, but I say change the environment. Stress occurs in the brain and sex is the best way to turn off the mind.

    Google Voice is a red flag.
    Honestly, The girl used a Google Voice number the whole time and gave her real number at the end. This means she was playing it safe from the beginning and wasn’t fully committed. She isn’t letting you into her life.
    You are running after her, and she is running away from you. Stop this changing. When you said I needed some weeks, you were supposed to show your power, but then you immediately called and started crying. This has reduced your value.
    Move on, show some attitude, and find a girl who will go on a date with you via her real number, not Google Voice.

    It was really painful. The truth is, when you trust someone blindly, and they break your heart like this, the whole world feels shaken.
    I can understand that this girl did a lot of wrong to you and you are in pain, but this was your first love, not your last. Judging girls all over the world because of one girl’s infidelity will be detrimental to your own future. Good and bad people are everywhere.

    A person in prison has only time. He is not calling you because he feels guilty, but because he has no other option. When he gets out, his old patterns of anger and violence will return.
    AskApril gave the right advice, and you should listen to her advice to focus on your health and your child, and stop taking her calls from jail except for urgent matters related to the child.
    You are a good mother who wants her child to have a good father, but unfortunately, that person is not a good father.

    I agree with AskApril that you don’t need to worry. A man already has a lot of responsibility in his life due to children and work. If you complain about scheduling and meetings, you will become another problem for him. Don’t chase him at all; rather, flirt with him and be happy when he meets you. Make him feel that you want romance from him, and don’t put any more responsibility on him.
