His Take: “Why Do Guys Rebound With Girls Who Are a Step Down?”
“I’m smart, have a great job, am athletic and adventurous, I volunteer, and I have a wide network of friends. And yet, my boyfriend dumps me for a girl who is a step down.”

His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I am recently separated from a long-dead marriage of eighteen years. I met a man online about three months ago. The attraction was instant and intense, and we ended up at his place after our first date. We had the best sex I have ever had. I continues seeing him, and after a while, we turned into more of a FWB situation, which was great, except that I wanted more than that and he was in no position to give it to me because he works about one hundred hours a week (being a big important executive). So,…
His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I have known this guy for about fifteen years but never really talked to him. About three months ago I found his profile on a friend’s Facebook page, so I sent him a friend request which he accepted. About two weeks later, he sent me a message saying that he had been in my town and almost called. I told him that he should have called. So, the next time, he texted me late at night from his brother’s house to meet up and we spent the night together having sex and cuddling, being playful as well. His…

His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. The guys are pretty split on their advice to this letter writer: I met a guy online and we started texting back and forth. He told me he had been “talking” to other women, which was fine by me because we had just started talking. On our first date we hit it off and, yes, we slept with each other. We cuddled after and slept in. He asked if I wanted to grab breakfast, but I didn’t have time. On the second date we went out for lunch and hung out at his place; then I hung out…
His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I am a 22-year-old female. My parents had very demanding expectations of me, and as a result I finished high school at 16 and college at 20. I have been a professional for three years now. I am not particularly interested in guys my age because marriage is the last thing on their minds. Many are in school and will be for the next few years, and many live at home or with roommates. We aren’t a good match because we are just in different phases of our lives. Over the past year, I have asked a few…
His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I met a guy online a month ago for a supposedly platonic meet-up. We ended up having casual sex, but we also definitely connected on other levels. It turns out we had a lot of mutual friends and interests! Before he dropped me off at home, he lent me a book as well. Initially, it felt like an FWB relationship. We’d text to meet up for a hook up, but now we sometimes just text each other for no other reason than to talk about the stuff we like. After sex, we’d cuddle and talk. Even before sex,…

His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I just read your responses to “Does My Virginity Turn Guys Off?” from a few years ago. It was great advice, tailored for a young woman who was 20. I am a woman who just turned 28. Though I am not particularly prudish, I have been working under the assumption that even with the best…
His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I had this guy friend in high school and we could never date because we were always with other people. He went off to the Army and I went to college. Four years later now, we have been talking again. It started through email because he was gone in the Army. He came back for a month and we had a great time together and we agreed to date. His family has mentioned how much he talked about me while he was home. They act like he is obsessed with me. He even admitted how much he likes…
His Take questions are answered by our panel of smart, opinionated, and funny dudes. I’ve been with my boyfriend for about two years now. We live together and get along great on a daily basis, but we have no romantic or intimate life. He was romantic when we first met, to win me over I guess, but now it’s like pulling teeth. He never wants to leave the house. He goes to the gym and is home all the time. I suggest things we can do, but there’s always an excuse. I found out part of the reason is from having social anxiety, but it’s still really difficult for me. He has…
