How to Pump the Brakes on A Relationship

If you've already rounded the bases, nothing pumps the breaks like a hard stop at first.

#1: Move it backwards in the bedroom.

If you've already rounded the bases, nothing pumps the brakes like a hard stop at first.

Just shut up and French Kiss me.

#2: When sending a Valentine's Day Card, the personal inscription says it all.

Stick to the facts.

Your name is enough.

#3: Try tossing a little ice on her family ties.

HER: "So I was thinking we cut your hair short for my brother's wedding!"

YOU: "Wait..You have a brother?!?"

#4: If she tries to have the "define-the-relationship talk", get real meta on her.

HER: "So...how would you define "us"?

#5: Nothing says Valentine's Day Dinner like an all-you-can-eat buffet.

If she complains, ask her:

"Are you so rich that you can turn down unlimited food at a decent price?"

#6: Make it clear you're letting yourself go. Health is a great place to start.

"Babe, I'm starting to get a little concerned about this itch. How do I tell if it's nested or just passing through?"

#7: Send a half-eaten box of chocolates.

An entire box would look over eager.

Do her a favor and cut out half the calories for her.

#8: Take her star gazing.

Don't be afraid to overshare.

"Don't you ever wonder who you'll end up with?"
