I came up with the &#8216;McDonalds Analogy&#8217; to try and explain it in a simple way that would help all women understand this tough question.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine if you went to McDonalds a lot and ordered a Big Mac Combo meal. A Big Mac, Large Fries and a Coke. You really like this meal. One day, you pull up to the drivethrough and order the Big Mac Combo meal and the girl tells you, &#8216;I\u2019m sorry &#8211; you can have the Big Mac and the Coke, but you can\u2019t get fries with that anymore.&#8217; You think about this for a moment, and sure &#8211; the Big Mac is the centerpiece of the meal, but McDonalds has some really good fries and you like their fries with your meal. So you say, &#8216;I\u2019ve been able to get fries with that before, why can\u2019t I have fries with my Big Mac combo anymore?&#8217; The girls says, &#8216;Well, I just think it is better if you only have the Big Mac and the Coke from here on out.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>At this point, a lot of guys are going to go to Wendy\u2019s or BK and see if they can get fries with their combo at that drivethrough window. But there are some guys who REALLY like McDonalds Big Macs and they might think, &#8216;If I keep coming here and ordering the Big Mac and Coke, maybe she\u2019ll change her mind and give me some fries with that later.&#8217; So they will keep on getting the combo without the fries until the deal breaker happens: One day that guy is going to order the Big Mac and Coke and then he\u2019s going to pull up a little bit to pay, and someone else is going to pull up to the drivethrough speaker and order the &#8216;Big Mac Combo&#8217; and he is going to hear the girl say, &#8216;Would you like fries with that?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why guys don\u2019t like to be friends with a girl who breaks up with them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I&#8217;d rather get In N&#8217; Out. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onlinebootycall.com\">OnlineBootyCall.com<\/a><\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-876\" data-postid=\"876\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-876 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s another good reason to stay single?
