Bonus! Check out this exclusive clip of tomorrow&amp;amp;#x2019;s new episode.\n\n\n\nGet More: Comedy Central,Funny Videos,Funny TV Shows\n\nIf you are: the guy who forgot Valentine&amp;amp;#x2019;s Day.\n\nAbbi Jacobson: Any day has the possibility to be romantic, so why not just do what you would do on another day? Maybe it&amp;amp;#x2019;s actually more special, because everyone else in the country isn&amp;amp;#x2019;t doing it, too.\n\nIlana Glazer: I just find Valentine&amp;amp;#x2019;s Day to be arbitrarily picked as the date. But it&amp;amp;#x2019;s also like, I get it, society&amp;amp;#x2019;s conventions mean something to people in different situations. This also may be a point where this guy has to assess\u2014it might be a tell for your values fitting with another person.\n\nIf you are: The guy who got into a drunken argument with his girlfriend the night before\u2014he doesn&amp;amp;#x2019;t remember what they fought about, and now she isn&amp;amp;#x2019;t talking to him.\n\nThis doesn&amp;amp;#x2019;t sound great. Small picture: call her and see what the hell happened. Big picture: you&amp;amp;#x2019;re blacking out with your girlfriend and getting into fights that you don&amp;amp;#x2019;t remember? Yikes.\n\nI&amp;amp;#x2019;m going to take the flip side of that: they both could&amp;amp;#x2019;ve been blackout drunk. It could&amp;amp;#x2019;ve been a fun, crazy New Year&amp;amp;#x2019;s Eve. It doesn&amp;amp;#x2019;t mean they necessarily have a drinking problem but every once in a while you don&amp;amp;#x2019;t eat enough, or whatever, and you black out. It&amp;amp;#x2019;s just like, &amp;amp;#x201C;Hey I&amp;amp;#x2019;m so sorry, I have no idea what the fuck we did last night. I feel like we got in a fight. I don&amp;amp;#x2019;t know what happened, I don&amp;amp;#x2019;t mean it because I don&amp;amp;#x2019;t know what I said.&amp;amp;#x201D; And if you did mean it and you remember it, let&amp;amp;#x2019;s talk about it right now. It just has to be all out in the open because when you&amp;amp;#x2019;re blackout drunk, you either say things you really mean or you say things you really don&amp;amp;#x2019;t mean.\n\nIf you are: The guy trying to convince his girlfriend to have a threesome with him.\n\nSome people are into group sex and others aren&amp;amp;#x2019;t. Rather than selling her a shitty car, you&amp;amp;#x2019;re trying to have a great, pleasurable experience. Don&amp;amp;#x2019;t try to convince. Try to assess if you&amp;amp;#x2019;re both on the same page in this way, and if you&amp;amp;#x2019;re not, you should look for partners who are conducive to your sexuality, like you would in any other situation that taps into your sexuality. Maybe this guy&amp;amp;#x2019;s not like, I want to be a Threesome Guy\u2014he just wants to try it out once. You&amp;amp;#x2019;ve got to just be honest. It shouldn&amp;amp;#x2019;t be &amp;amp;#x201C;a favor&amp;amp;#x201D; that she does for him. It should be\u2026 a thing they&amp;amp;#x2019;re doing as a pair.\n\nIt&amp;amp;#x2019;s not about convincing her, it&amp;amp;#x2019;s about actually being honest that clearly he wants to, and it doesn&amp;amp;#x2019;t mean that he&amp;amp;#x2019;s not into her, it means he wants her to be involved in it. It&amp;amp;#x2019;s about being able to actually tell her that.\n\nIf you are: The guy who wants to sext with his girlfriend but doesn&amp;amp;#x2019;t know how to start.\n\nDon&amp;amp;#x2019;t send an under-dick shot as your first thing. Like, ease into it. Use words first then picture, but start small in the picture. You&amp;amp;#x2019;ve got to gauge if somebody&amp;amp;#x2019;s into it. Just start by giving her a hot compliment via text\u2014that&amp;amp;#x2019;s a good starting point.\n\nI would probably start with just the word &amp;amp;#x201C;sext.&amp;amp;#x201D; That&amp;amp;#x2019;s a good way to do it.\n\nAnd, from GQ.com&amp;amp;#x2019;s &amp;amp;#x201C;Ask a Real Live Lady&amp;amp;#x201D; inbox:\n\n**Dear Real Live Lady:\n\n What can I do to become more aggressive with initiating kissing/sex with a woman? I really am a nice guy or a shy guy (however you wanna label me) and I always feel as if the timing isn&amp;amp;#x2019;t right to make a move....inevitably, when I do finally make a move it doesn&amp;amp;#x2019;t turn out how I would want, and I fail.\n\n\u2014wantstobeanalpha**\n\nI get that he wants to be aggressive and that&amp;amp;#x2019;s maybe hot to him, but maybe he needs to go for more aggressive girls. I would hate to be a guy, because I&amp;amp;#x2019;m so bad at starting the moment, I totally feel that and that being such a challenge. It&amp;amp;#x2019;s not about expending energy on your weaknesses that you&amp;amp;#x2019;re already shitty at but using your strength, the strength of being chill and laid back and not aggressive.\n\nDear Real Live Lady:\n\n What is the best thing a guy can say when he first approaches you at a bar?\n\nI don&amp;amp;#x2019;t know, I guess, &amp;amp;#x201C;Hi.&amp;amp;#x201D; I don&amp;amp;#x2019;t like lines. That&amp;amp;#x2019;s where I feel like it&amp;amp;#x2019;s fake.\n\nI like that idea of I don&amp;amp;#x2019;t like lines, because it is, like, that&amp;amp;#x2019;s the whole thing. Remember The Pick Up Artist on VH1\u2014it was a reality show, and the guy wore a fuzzy, like, cop hat, or something?\u2014 all this shit, The Game, having a fucking line, like, just be your goofiest self. People are like trying to avoid awkwardness. Don&amp;amp;#x2019;t\u2014it&amp;amp;#x2019;s fun that it&amp;amp;#x2019;s awkward, it&amp;amp;#x2019;s awkward because there tension and energy between the two people. It&amp;amp;#x2019;s so lame to say, Just be yourself! But for real.\n\nThis sounds so cheesy but, Ilana and I come from the improv world and that&amp;amp;#x2019;s really what it is\u2014in improv, you never want to have your scene prepared in your head because there&amp;amp;#x2019;s someone else in the scene with you. You&amp;amp;#x2019;ve got to come out open to whatever they&amp;amp;#x2019;re going to bring to it; so if you meet someone at the bar, you&amp;amp;#x2019;ve just got to go into it just as like, &amp;amp;#x201C;Yo, what&amp;amp;#x2019;s up? I&amp;amp;#x2019;m drinking a Bud Light, too. Isn&amp;amp;#x2019;t that awesome?&amp;amp;#x201D; And then they&amp;amp;#x2019;re going to bring up something else, and it&amp;amp;#x2019;s either going to be a great scene or it&amp;amp;#x2019;s going to be a shitty scene, and then you can be like, &amp;amp;#x201C;Cool! I&amp;amp;#x2019;ve got to go to the bathroom!&amp;amp;#x201D;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
