Saw the ex the other day. Pretty sure he's on the top 5 list of hottest guys I've ever dated. Ever. Wow.
Anyway, I was just reading this post on the main page about a guy who was a total lame about it when his gf started crying about him being too busy for her. Honestly, a guy who doesn't care that you're crying is either mad at you (characteristic of my ex) or doesn't give a crap about you (characteristic of a jerk). Seriously though, if you have an issue like that, talk about your feelings (I usually try to be matter-of-fact about it, without the tears--if I can). Honesty goes a VERY long way. My ex once made me REALLY mad one day (the circumstances are irrelevant, but suffice it to say we had a date and I nearly skipped it and went home). Naturally, in the manner of most women, I acted moody and mad, because that's how I was feeling, and he knew it. Naturally, in the manner of most men, he didn't really understand what was going on in my head.
So I told him. I told him everything I was thinking and feeling and all the reasons for my confusing, pissed off behavior. And it made everything better. Now, I'm not suggesting that you constantly tell your SO every single moment-by-moment detail of what is going on in your head, but just being really honest with them is really the best thing.
