A.   28 March 2011: It doesn't sound to me that you have positive feelings about your current relationship. I personally think that if you have such strong feelings of distrust that your boyfriend would not "understand" you, your feelings, and the circumstance you got ... (read in full...)

A.   28 March 2011: You are likely going to feel awful for a while. No matter how bad a relationship actually is, break ups are hard! Our hearts and our brains are not always on the same page. It definitely sounds like you did the right thing for yourself in the long ... (read in full...)

A.   23 March 2011: First of all, congratulations! I can imagine how difficult the betrayal has been to you, especially when faced with a pregnancy and motherhood. All wonderful, but of course, stressful enough, without the added stress of going through the pain of ... (read in full...)

A.   23 March 2011: I think you are absolutely right when you say there is "no guarantee!" You can marry someone who has all the money in the world, and the day after your wedding, he could go completely bankrupt. If you truly love someone, and you have kids with ... (read in full...)

A.   21 March 2011: It will happen for you when the time is right! No need to rush into anything and I don't recommend losing your virginity to an escort! It is silly to think that there is an age that you "have" to lose your virginity, or there is something wrong ... (read in full...)

A.   21 March 2011: I really think that it will be much better for you to break up with him and move on. I understand feeling attached to him and wanting it all to work out, but his behaviors are not something that you want to condone, ignore, or put up with a in a ... (read in full...)

A.   18 March 2011: I hate to say it, but my gut response based on what you've stated is to suggest that you move on..."long term lying and cheating" is not something to be taken lightly, and I'm afraid that there is a strong possibility that you will always have those ... (read in full...)

A.   18 March 2011: His behavior is extremely frustrating and totally inconsiderate of you! If he has been doing this since you were newlyweds, my bets on the fact that he has never been fully committed to being emotionally engaged with you, and/or he has a problem ... (read in full...)

Do people put too much weight on the institution of marriage, and too little value on the PERSON they marry?

Q.   I hate having sex with my husband,but I still love him even after 13 years of relationship. He was my first and only sex partner...Is that normal? What should I do?...

A.   16 March 2011: What do you mean by "consented rape?". Is he forcing you to have sex against your will? Your descriptions definitely are bordering on that possibility and that is unacceptable! My heart broke when I read your post, because you sound so frustrated ... (read in full...)
