Brad's Tip of The Week For The Guys...

Hey, guys...Eventually you;re gonna get into a fight with your girlfriend and most of the time, you may not even understand WHY she's upset.  Here are some situations that makes your girlfriend mad and some tips on how you can handle them...

#1.  SHE CATCHES YOU CHECKING OUT ANOTHER WOMAN.  If your girlfriend actually SEES you doing this...don't play stupid and deny looking at another chick.  Just acknowledge that you're busted and try to laugh it off.

#2.  YOU GET DRUNK AND MAKE A FOOL OF YOURSELF.  You need to apologize profusely to your girlfriend the next day and if possible, lay low and don't drink again for a while.

#3.  YOU SHOW UP LATE SOMEWHERE WITHOUT CALLING.  OK, first of all...you SHOULD HAVE CALLED!  This is why there are cell phones.  But since you didn't do this, try to downplay the situation and explain you "lost track of time".

#4.  YOU FORGOT HER BIRTHDAY OR AN ANNIVERSARY.  This is really, really bad.  Don't admit that you forgot.  Just buy yourself some time by telling her you have a "special surprise", and then try to make up for it by doing something nice.

#5.  YOU CALL HER THE WRONG NAME IN BED.  Sure, it happens.  Does it make you look like a jerk, though?  Absolutely.  Offer up a sincere apology, and reassure her that it was just a mistake.

Hope this helps.  I'm STILL sleeping on the couch...
