Default Re: More Dating Advice - What\'s My Play

However, I don't think it would be a terrible idea to somehow make sure he finds out not only is she allowed to date other people, she is. But I can't make it obvious that she knows that's what I'm up to.

I don't get it - are you ok with her seeing this guy (or others) or not? I'm guessing that, at least some time in the future, her seeing another guy won't be ok. And that might be sooner than you're willing to admit.

Totally cool now. A month from now, not so much I'd say. It used to bother me a little, only because I hate competition from other guys. Things would be a lot easier if he wasn't in the picture (or maybe not).

I guess I sit tight for a week or so. See how things develop. If she complains about the guy but keeps him around, that's a huge red flag. If she keeps him around but actually likes the guy, time to look in the mirror. Frankly, a girl who likes a total douchebag loses points with me - I'd probably walk. But if you like her, maybe force the situation.

I will give it more than a week.

How long has she been seeing Army dude?

[/ QUOTE ]

Met him for the first time 2 days before Christmas. He professed his love for her 3 days later in his myspace blog.

Again, I'm cool letting things play out. I just wondered if there was an interesting way to speed up the jealous rampage he goes on. And she is really into him, there is really no reason I'd ever expect this girl to be a good match for me. He may be a big tool, but he probably is really nice to her, so that's what he has going for him, so I can understand her hanging out with him, even if she is not into him as much.
