Each one gets a men’s view and a women’s view — not a single generic answer.
Why does she text me first and then not reply?
Don't turn a half-finished conversation into a challenge you have to win. If she sends “How was your game?” and disappears after you answer, your first response wasn't necessarily wrong. You don't…
Consider how casually a text can begin. A person can genuinely think of you, send a question while waiting in line, and then get pulled into the rest of the day. The…
Is talking about an ex a red flag?
Allow some context instead of a ban on the word “ex.” If someone says, “My ex and I used to live in Denver,” while you're discussing moving, that's ordinary biography. You don't…
Start with a question: after hearing the story, do you understand your date better, or do you feel drafted into a contest? There's a difference between “That relationship taught me I need…

Look first at who gets to switch off. Two people can each have five chores and still have wildly different workloads. Taking the trash out once a week isn't equivalent to deciding…
How to express feelings without blaming?
Start with a complaint the other person can actually act on. “You don't care about me” is difficult to answer without a fight about whether you're allowed to feel it. “We agreed…
Don't confuse kindness with making yourself so small that the problem disappears. “Sorry, this is probably stupid, and you're really busy” can hide the actual issue before you've said it. You can…
