A.   28 June 2012: The term attention "whore" that Honeypie uses couldn't be more appropriate for such characters. Indeed, women can be very manipulative you have to be very careful. As you get older you will see this happening to you and other men quite often, in ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi Aunts, I'm just feeling a bit low and need some words of kindness. Where do you suggest I go? I don't feel like going to a place of worship and I have no friends who would ever help me. They'd only get me to help them. I'm nearing 30 and h...

A.   6 January 2012: Don't fall into her trap! Women like to play these silly games when they know they have the power over you. You are saying "I am lost without her..." and be 100% sure that she knows it, she sences it and she takes advantage of it! She has the power ... (read in full...)

Should I contact this girl again? Or is she just being nice?

Q.   Hello, This is kind of a pathetic story, but I would appreciate any help. When I was in college senior year I spotted this beautiful girl that would routinely eat in the cafeteria around the time I was there. I sadly could never time exa...

A.   5 January 2012: She is just being nice. I am 35, I've dated many women and trust me on this: when a woman is not interested just leave! If a girl has even the slightest interest in you then you feel it. If you are in doubt then most probably you are right, she is ... (read in full...)

A.   2 January 2012: My poor friend...that's how life is, unfortunately. Some girls that we like will not reciprocate. We have two options: 1) Being miserable thinking of them and daydream and hope that they will change their minds (99% will not change their minds) or ... (read in full...)

A.   21 November 2011: Think twice of what you will decide, only you can know the right answer to your puzzle. Two different roads and you can't travel both! You are not ready to settle down but what if, when you are, you can't find someone decent. What do you think is ... (read in full...)

Friendly flirting or more to it?
