5 Ways to Lose A Guy — And 5 Ways to Keep Him
Are you a good girl?
Maybe you don’t want to worry about your (soon-to-be-ex) boyfriend stalking you or trying tirelessly to win you back.
Maybe you don’t want to deal with the drunken “I miss you” messages. Maybe you just want to get him out of your life, once and for all.
If this sounds like you, you came to the right place.
Here are five easy steps to get your boyfriend to run for the hills.
1. Criticize him.
Nobody likes to be criticized. That’s exactly why you have to do it. Find ways to criticize him for as many things as you possibly can. Some ideas:
Why don’t you have a “real” job?
Why don’t you ever take out the trash? Is there something wrong with your legs?
All you do is watch football or play video games!
When he does something nice for you, like make you a meal or take care of buying groceries, make sure to criticize that too.
What kind of butter did you buy? I don’t eat this!
Why is this so salty? Why didn’t you season it enough? It’s burnt! It’s undercooked!
