Should I tell my b/f I don't like his haircut?

Q.   My boyfriend got a TERRIBLE haircut, it looks ridiculous and I'm not tying to be mean but it's the worst haircut I've ever seen. I didn't tell him I think that either. He doesn't really like it either but he's trying to grow a man bun, and I ...

A.   18 March 2016: There would be no harm in texting him a 'Goodbye', it's good manners if nothing else. You are obviously still thinking of him & a month afterwards isn't too long to wait to say it properly. The only thing is, if you only dated for a month, he prob... (read in full...)

What can I say to my long term partner who has given me Gonorrhea?

Q.   My long standing partner has given me gonorhhea as far as im aware and i can suspect where it came from! It makes me sad rather than angry and i realise he has been directing a lot of anger towards me lately. I dont want to see him now anyway becau...

A.   3 October 2015: If he is your long term partner - how come he was sleeping around without you suspecting? At your age (or any age really) you should never enter into sex until you are sure of your partner's full commitment to you & until you are sure - you should ... (read in full...)

A.   25 September 2015: It sounds odd this has happened - especially seeing that you were getting on so well - & seeing he was treating you like a lady. Could he be ill at all or busy with work? The only disturbing thing I can think of here is that he was treating you well... (read in full...)

A.   23 May 2015: I don't think he used you. I think it did sound like he really cared for you in the beginning. The fact is - he has a new job in a new area - anything could've happened. He might be overly stressed with work, he might be out enjoying the sights or h... (read in full...)

A.   9 May 2015: She sounds like she has low self esteem - so try to reassure her that she won't be dumped! Maybe there are religious reasons too why she is unwilling - so maybe chat to her a bit more & see. At least you are concerned enough to care. Good luc... (read in full...)

Why show he was really interested in person, and now, the silent treatment? Is he playing hard to get?

A.   7 January 2015: I agree with the person at the bottom - if he has recently broke up with a girl, he probably is just looking for affection & needs his ego boosting. I just had a guy who had broke up with his girlfriend & he was chatting up all sorts of women look... (read in full...)
