OMG I LOVE MYSELF
I'm so good at analogies, look at this:
Me: dude, think of this like...a math equation
right now, you and her are like this equation
4x+250 = x-50
once you get to this step in the equation:
3x = -300
THEN you ask her
but now you're still at the 4x+250 = x-50
so you have to simplify it first!
Him: Ok get it, but how
And then I proceed on more counseling xD Ann's advice is really...sandwiched (good thing, bad thing, good thing), but mine is more GAME PLAN kind of advice, like, do this, do that, you're doing this well, but do this and this is why. That kind of thing XD
