i get alot of "Yeah well, my Ex girlfriend was like..the hottest model on the gold coast!" or "YOUR FAKE!!!" or "Oh yeah, got naked pics?"

So not fun

i think th most important thing is to keep your partner involved introduce them to people u work with tell them about the people u meet also be open, if your partner asks a question dont become defensive then they think somethings, up be honest and when they are around make them number 1 priority. there is sonthing worse than being taken somewhere and then being palmed off like ur 2nd best.

funy u brought that up. my exgf is now great friends with alot of girls i work with. i introduced them to her and they r now all great friends yet she still wanted me to quit my job... i dont understand it either.

i dont think i would really like my bf being a promo dude- if he really wanted to I wouldn't stop him. I'v worked in promo before and it wasnt very nice. He is a (part-time) bouncer which means plenty of drunk girls etc and I dont really mind that. i guess its a trust thing though- i never worry about the girls tryin to pick him up at clubs and stuff. Its a possesive sort of thing, we want our man to be ours and no other girl thinking she can get him- when ur doing a shoot its jsut for the shoot- even if you guys are kissing you both know its work, but in promo ur actually flirting with them and while it may be that you know its jsut for the job- the girls ur flirting with think that they can get you. thats the difference. My bf used to flirt and give out a fake number and the rest because it meant he could get the drunk girls to listen to him and behave, but after he realised it wasn't really respecting me by doing it (basically i asked him if he wud like me to be flirtin with dudes as part of my job) he kinda realised and stopped behaving like that.

When i had my first shoot my bf thought it was great and was really proud. now i dont get any support from him and if the subject gets brought up he gets very defensive, hes definatley the jelous type anyway... i just try not to mix business and pleasure. I just use the whole, 'if u care about me you will let me live my dreams' line. It is after all JUST a job. Someones got to do it hehe ;)

Honesty + trust. If you don't have these then it's hard to make a relationship work.

yeah kiki i have realised this is the base of a good r/ship. dont worry i dont feel so bad about breaking up with my exgf now. since we broke up i have been extra good about not getting with other girls because i knew my ex would find out and it would hurt her and i didnt want that..... meanwhile shes currently on 6 guys in just under 4 weeks. so now i dont feel like the bad guy.

Careful. Did she TELL u that? Or did u hear it on the 'grapevine'?

That is great advice Danica except if you're single and the girl you're like is at the bar where you're promoting =/ then again my advice on relationship is probably not the best to take =]

Well in that case you'd have to say something like (if she hits on you) "I'm really flattered but I'm working right now. If you're interested then maybe we can do something sometime? Here's my number...." Then just act professional for the rest of the night. Don't flirt with her etc so the good ol 'flirting is dumb' line works later on if she starts to get jealous. ANd she's approached you, so she can't say that you've picked up before and she is scared it will happen again.

If you're the one doing the hitting? I guess I'd take the same approach. Tell her you're on the clock right now but wouldn't mind catching up with her some other time. If she takes your number, bingo, if not... No loss.

(Wow. I'm full of worthless advice... :D)
