Hi,

I've been replying to problems for quite a while now and hope Ive helped make a difference in some way. Mostly I prefer answering questions relating to health and sex, as I feel these are the most important and I have a bit of background knowledge that I hope will be useful to others.

I tend not to answer questions I feel I'm not qualified to answer and put most of my energy into the ones I feel I am.

Anyways, If you'd like to ask me any questions then just message me :)

Bye!

He uses a wedding ring... is he married?

Q.   Started seeing a guy lately and whilst we have been flirting with each other I have noticed he has a wedding ring. I asked him if he was married, and he said he was separated - why then would still wear a ring?...

A.   10 May 2008: Firstly, the fact he did this to you whilst he thought you were asleep is slightly disturbing. It sounds as if he is in denial of what happened and is scared you'll bring this up. If you enjoyed this experience, it doesnt mean you're neccessar... (read in full...)
