Q: My hookup buddy added me on Snapchat. Is she hoping for some below-the-belt pics?
CHAD, DENVER, CO
A: Zip it up, Brett Favre. Unless you're paying her $3.99 a minute, don't lead with a close-up of your manhood--you'll just look like a horny creep. A crotch shot doesn't spike a woman's libido. Use a PG-13 pic instead--say, shirtless at the beach. No reply? Cool off. But if she fires back with a bikini photo, ease off and then continue the striptease. You'll be up to NC-17 in no time.
Q: My girlfriend is still close with a guy she hooked up with in college. Should I be worried?
HAROLD, DALLAS, TX
A: I get why you're rattled: While dudes think nothing of strings-free sex, women tend to reserve their flings for men they secretly want to date or find wildly sexy. Sure, Joe College could be a threat, but think about this: She agreed to be your girl. That's a sign she's not sweating him. So you have two options: Confront her and look insecure, or take her commitment at face value and don't let frat boy faze you. Take a wild guess which approach will make you look like a bigger man.
Q: Our engagement is off. It was mutual. Can I ask for that pricey ring back?
Mark, San Antonio, TX
A: Okay, I know a little something about rings, and I say if you didn't cheat on her, throw her stuff out in the street, or pour sugar into her gas tank, then yes--you can and should ask for it back. It's worth one more awkward conversation for that kind of dough. That said, keep this in mind: you did give her the ring, so if she wants to hold onto it, she's allowed. Just count your losses and move on. Bachelors are big fans of ramen noodles anyway, right?
