People who post a YAGT keep ignoring the obvious;

1. If an ex cheats on you and you're thinking about getting back with her, NO
2. If an ex is going stalker on you, CALL THE POLICE
3. If your wife or girlfriend is hiding e-mails, making mysterious phone calls, and saying she's going somewhere or doing something that you later find out she never actually went to, SHE'S CHEATING. DUMP HER.
4. If you think you don't need a pre-nup, good luck keeping anything after the divorce you have a 50% chance getting in modern times
5. A girl smiling at you doesn't necessarily mean she's "into" you, no more than a male bagger at the grocery store smiling at you means he's automatically gay and wants to eat your sausage
6. Asking out someone who works at a place you go to reguarly leads to awkwardness when you break up.
7. Yes, that girl at work is a cutie. No, don't date her. See 6, also do an internet search for SEXUAL HARRASEMENT, oh, and getting fired for having sex with co-workers if found at by co-workers or bosses is a bad idea, mmkay?
8. If an ex asks you for money, SAY NO. You're not her sugar daddy. No, not even if she offers sex, you can get that from other women, or as a last resort, buy a fleshlight or blow-up Wanda.
9. Grow a pair and ask her out instead of whining about it in YAGT
10. If you post a YAGT, expect a "use chloroform" answer 10% of the time
11. If you don't know what movie she would like to see, ASK. HER. Asking AToT makes you sound like a nerd with no social skills who is too scared to talk to a girl. If you can ask her out, you can talk to her about what movie to see.
12. No, don't do her homework for her.
13. Yes, if you don't have a condom you shouldn't have sex. The many stories about unplanned parent-hood because A) the girl forgot her pill B) CHOSE not to take her pill because she wanted to trap you into a long term relationship C) There's a good chance you can't afford a baby D) You might get sick of her in a year E) You discover you hate children, and F) Being a daddy instead of being a swinging bachelor at 22 sucks.
14. If she's married or in a relationship/just got out of a relationship or marriage, you have a good chance of getting beatup or stalked by her current/former beau/ex
15. You're posting a YAGT. It is highly likely you are asking for the exact same advice that's been garnered out in many other YAGTs of the same situation. Change the names to yours and the chick in your life. You've got your answer without posting another YAGT. Genius, isn't it?
16. If you're too stupid to pay attention to the exact same answer given by 20 people in your YAGT, gods help you. If you don't want to listen to THE RIGHT ADVICE IN THE FIRST PLACE, why did you bother posting?
17. If she's bad for you, stay away from her. If she cheats on you, won't have sex with you, won't go out with you, doesn't care about your existence, guess what? You have no chance, move on.
18. If in the looooong course of your relationship, you keep breaking up, she's a psycho drama queen, she gives you false hope and crushes your pathetic soul everytime you come in contact with her, call block her, block her e-mails, delete her phone number from you cell phone, block her AIM name. STOP TALKING TO HER. You don't have the willpower to not be whipped whenever she comes crying because she wants something from you. It's easier and less painful to swallow a box of rusty nails than keep her in your life.
19. If you get "lets just be friends"ed, give up and go away.
20. No, long distance relationships don't work. Especially over several years. Yes, if she's barely speaking to you on the phone she's cheating on you or about to dump you (or both)

So, anyone else have other answers that fall under "common sense" or that has been repeated many many many times on AToT, yet the YAGT people never actually pay attention to?

The #1 reason to post YAGT:

Just about everyone on OT will read it. There are more replies/views in this type of thread than just about any other type of thread.

That list is way too long. It should be:

1. Grow a pair and ask her out instead of whining about it in YAGT
2. If you are in doubt about or unsatisfied with your relationship in any way, have sex with her one last time then leave her and never speak to her again. You will find another girl. Don't bother working it out. Seriously.
3. The correct answer to every YAGT is one of the above 2.

Furiously clicks emoticon.

It's quite easy to get. Considering the size of the bottle, 20 bucks will have you raping for weeks. :p

In all seriousness, does that stuff really work like in the movies? Rag over the face and theyre out cold just like that?

Do you guys actually remember the good ol days prior to YAGT's here? I can remeber reading the very first thread to coin YAGT. I wonder if that threads still around.

someone dig it up.


BTW, the CARDINAL rule in dating is "ALWAYS follow your gut.". Your instincts are there for a reason, follow them. If in your heart of hearts you know she's cheating, lying, whatever, then odds are she is.

rob: should i bolt every time i get that feeling in my gut when I meet someone new? well, i've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, i've come to the conclusion that my guts have sh*t for brains.

Quick question... If a guy is a "male bagger", doesn't that make him gay? otherwise he'd be bagging chicks :p

Not really. Like many here on OT, I find a form of entertainment equivalent to watching a roadside wreck in reading YAGTs. I've seen the same thing here (and on a couple of other forums) where the exact. same. things. get. posted. but no one ever pays attention to lessons learned by others.
