Ask Him Anything

A/ As much as it pains me to say it and as much as I worry this will only contribute to the crime wave of girlfriends stealing cozy zip-ups all over this planet...yes, it’s adorable.

Be honest: Do men secretly love it when we steal their sweatshirts? I feel like they do!

It’s sexy (even if you’re drowning in our XL fit). I can’t quite explain why—other than the fact that it feels kind of intimate to share something so comfy with you. I have one more thing to add: Katherine, if you’re reading this, I want my Baja hoodie back, please. I haven’t seen it since 11th grade.

I have this suspicion that my guy friend has romantic feelings for me. Any definitive signs I can look for?

A/ Hmm, not really. Any guy is lucky to have a good female friend, and he never wants to come off like just another bro who’s being nice in order to get in her pants. If this buddy likes you, he’s probably scared he’ll wreck your friendship if he makes a move or tells you how he feels. But are you interested in him too? In that case, you can confess (which is also gambling your friendship) or have a discreet conversation with a mutual pal who may see your guy friend’s feelings more clearly than you can. If you’re not into this dude, though, just continue to act normally.

Why do men “rubber-stall” or deliberately wait for the woman to bring up wearing a condom pre-hookup?
