At first I thought this was kinda funny.
Then I thought it was pretty enlightening (and I became a little agitated) because a lot of guys actually do behave like they expect their woman to heed these kinds of things.
Notice how "the man" expects "the lady" to never see her ex but he himself makes no concessions about his exes. He insists on a few things that seem funny individually at first glance but then when combined with all the others just make him seem like a jerk. I guess he simply wants his woman to give in to everything he wants and essentially give up anything she wants...
I'm all about getting what you want from a relationship. But at least be fair and hold yourself to the same accountability and expectations to which you hold your partner.
(Was he really serious about that "side of the bed" thing? Oh brother. If a woman is perfect in every other way but won't give up her side of the bed if it happens to be the same as his side, what's he gonna do?)

Gross. Seriously, relationships are about compromise, not one person writing down a list of rules that must be followed at all times.
The never talking about exes is the one that really annoys me. I understand about not overdoing it or waxing poetic about exes. But I also refuse to pretend that whole years of my life never happened.
I think this was article was meant as tongue in cheek kinda thing. The joke here is on men and their stereotypical preferences. basically, it's for girls to read and go "I've so totally had that boyfriend before! Haha! Men are so the same all the time!"
True. I mean I think he did sort of mean it jokingly but in every joke there is a bit of truth...
Also, I have known guys that were practically that way. The one I dubbed "THE ex" was pretty demanding and uncompromising about stuff that meant I would have to give up things I really wanted.
