Hi, my name is Cat and I'm 22 years old. I live in various cities in the UK since the city where I study and where my family live are different. I'm currently just out of a relationship and enjoying the single life for a while. I don't know that I am qualified to help people but I'd like to try. I've had a lot of experiences in my life and despite being quite young I'm always helping my friends with their problems. I'd like the chance to help all of you too. Feel free to private message me anytime.If you do however, please include some details of your problem as I answer a lot here and can't always remember specific problems. With big hugs, Cat xx

I seem to date guys for a week or so then get bored. Why does this keep happening?

Q.   In the past month or so I have gotten in a routine of dating guys for only a week. This is my fourth boyfriend in the past two months. They weren't meant for me but I really like the guy I'm with now. The only problem is it's been a week and I ...

A.   1 May 2007: There's nothing wrong with this, you're just not ready to commit or not meeting the right guys yet. This will correct itself as you get older. CD... (read in full...)

Is there any other way of finding out if he likes me than just asking him?

Q.   I really like this guy who is a year younger than me, one of my friends(not close but still a friend) likes him too but doesn't know i also like him and my best friend previously liked him but thinks it's great that i like him as she is totally over ...

A.   1 May 2007: Well there are long and involved patterns of speech that might take you until you're 30 to find out if he likes you or not. Best and quickest bet is to ask him. If he says he doesn't feel the same the worst thing will be a few seconds of ... (read in full...)

What on earth did my dream mean???

Q.   HELP! I had a dream that I was in the mall with my ex, and I kissed her! I honestly have no feelings for her whatsoever, and I have been seeing my current girlfriend for almost a year! What the heck did that dream mean?...

A.   1 May 2007: Probably about the same as it meant when I had a dream my grandmother was a witch and wanted to eat me in a soup.... dreams rarely mean anything. You say you have no feelings for her so maybe it was a flashback or something reminded you of her. I ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have recently had a massive break up with my girlfriend which has resorted in violence, We have both seen that there is a way through this and are willing to try but we dont know how to repair the damage that I have caused with her father, which ...

A.   1 May 2007: You can't regain someone's trust in a moment. It takes a lot of hard work and gestures that show you've changed. Remember that words are easy. He won't be convinced if the best you can do is tell him that it won't happen again. You need to spend ... (read in full...)

He threw a couple of cushions at me and now my friends are saying he is violent and I should leave him.

Q.   Hi...... This weekend my boyfriend of over 1 year and me fell out. I know this happens all the time but we're currently buying a house together (i know it sounds soon but i've known him a lot longer) which is very stressful. His previous re...

A.   1 May 2007: Well.... I think that both of you knew that throwing cushions wouldn't properly hurt you but I guess I'd be worried about the way in which he did it. You say he was angry at the time. Were they thrown in a violent way or just a frustrated way? Your ... (read in full...)

I don't want my mum to be alone.........

Q.   You may all think Im mad or that my Mum is but here goes, I'll explain a little before I tell you the problem. My Mum's been through tough times for example violent partners and Alcohol and Drug abuse. Maybe she thought that that was her only esc...

A.   1 May 2007: Your mum has had a lot of problems and naturally you worry about her but our parents have us, we don't have them. It might sound like a selfish attitude from someone who doesn't understand how hard your situation is and that's true, if I tried to ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have a lover that is about 28 years old. I love him so dearly that I can't do without him. We have been dating for 2 years now. The problem is that he has a son of 7 who lives with the mother and he is proposing to marry her. Please help me. I ...

A.   30 April 2007: Me and India always seem to agree when it comes to giving advice and as usual she is spot on. It's hard but he's doing the right thing for himself and for his son. You will find someone in time who is completely focused on you and it will be ... (read in full...)

Q.   ever told a friend how u feel thinking they feel the same way (as they said they had) just for them to suddenly say they just want to be friends for no obvious reason? i feel so stupid and cant think what ive done. has this happened to anyo...

A.   30 April 2007: Remember how you felt before you said anything, how agonising it was not to know how she felt. At least now you do. In a way it's worse because there's little hope b ut it's better than the endless wondering. CD... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: Hm my suggestion would be... on prom night tell her you miss being together this way and gauge her reaction. My guess is she wouldn't be going to prom with you if she didn't have some feelings but if she says me too then you have it confirmed and ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: Don't do anything until you've made a clear cut decision. You're right that it isn't okay to start messing with his feelings. Personally (and this is just one person's opinion) I think you've done the right thing. It's a bad move to get involved ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: You can only legally move out of home before you're 16 with your parents permission so you need to tell them you're moving out. They're blatantly going to find out you're pregnant everntually too so you might as well tell them and deal with the ... (read in full...)

Q.   My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 months and we have sex 5 to 6 times a week sometimes more. We most always use a condom and I am on birth control, but he is so scared that he is going to get me pregnant. What can I do to make him see that ...

A.   30 April 2007: Condoms are 99% effective, the pill is 99% effective. That means that your chance of getting pregnant is 1 in 9801. You can't get much safer than that! CD... (read in full...)

My first cousin and I are in love, is this so wrong?

Q.   About two months ago I admitted my feelings toward a first cousin (after a few drinks, son of my aunt, we are both 42). He confirmed that he felt the same way. we have since been talking and admitted that we have both felt like this for as long as ...

A.   30 April 2007: There's nothing legally or morally wrong about dating your cousin. My major concern would be if you were to split up because you're family and would have to continue seeing each other at family social events etc but if you're prepared for that then ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: It's not surprising you're insecure about relationships ending after two marriages failing. I think everyone gets a little insecure about relationships and there's no magic quick fix. The most important thing to remember is that insecurity could ... (read in full...)

Do you believe it is possible to be 'just' friends with your ex without any feelings of jealousy when either of you move on?

Q.   OK, here are a few questions for you all about ex's. 1. Do you believe it is possible to be 'just' friends with your ex without any feelings of jealousy when either of you move > 2. Should you both just make a complete fresh start from ea...

A.   30 April 2007: 1. Over the years I have managed to stay friends with only one of my exes, so I would say it's possible but difficult. I occassionally get jealous when he's with someone if I'm single but its got easier as time goes on. At first I would cry from ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: I think maybe he feels a bit like you've led him on by flirting with him when you were with his friend. Maybe he thought that if he stayed close to you that you might change your mind and be with him. Obviously you're in love with your fiance and ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: In my experience if it's love you don't need to question it, you just know. I wasn't sure if I was in love with the guy I dated when I was 16 but a few years later I knew it was love. Sounds like your relationship is quite difficult and that might ... (read in full...)

Q.   im 25 years old me and my boyfriend have been dating 3 years and living together for 2 of those years. Im currently in school to be a Physicians assistant because this is a masters program I still have quite a few years to go. The problem I'm having ...

A.   30 April 2007: I don't see any point in giving him an ultimatum. Pushing him could end up badly for you and you said yourself all you want to know is if there will be a commitment some day. You can just as easily find this out by asking him about the future... ... (read in full...)

Q.   My friend found out I kissed another guy 4 years ago while I was dating my current boyfriend, he confronted me and then said he wouldn't tell him. However he did in the worst way, and my boyfriend broke up with me. Since then we have gotten back ...

A.   30 April 2007: I don't know that there is anything you can do except accept it. Your boyfriend feels he can trust this guy to tell him the truth and maybe feels he owes him one for telling him the truth that one time. It's fine if you don't want to be friends with ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: Your biggest problem with this guy isn't your age, it's the fact that you lied to him about your age. Try telling him the truth and see if he's still interested. That's your test. CD... (read in full...)

Q.   hi im 17, nearly 18 and i've been seeing this girl since we were 13, she is the same age as me. recently she has been dropping hints about children. We have been having sex since we were 13, i have always used a condom until she was 16 wen she ...

A.   30 April 2007: You have to tell her and this is why.... you might not want to break up but neither do you want children. If she isn't taking your pill in order to trap you into having kids then she obviously is only thinking of herself and doesn't love you as much ... (read in full...)

A.   30 April 2007: It's natural that as the relationship goes on you'll have sex less. Also, the kids are quite likely wearing you both out so that he doesn't feel like it when you finally get to bed. Can someone else look after your kids one night so you can have the ... (read in full...)

Can a girl get pregnant whilst on her period ?

Q.   I know this might sound gross to some, but I still need to ask. Is it possible for a girl to become pregnant while menstruating? Also, is it wrong to have sex during a menstruation period if you wear a condom? My girlfriend is horniest during ...

A.   30 April 2007: It's not dangerous to have sex during a girl's period. Like you said, the main issue is that most guys just don't like it. However, a girl can get pregnant at any stage during her cycle so keep it safe. CD... (read in full...)

Seeing each other for a few weeks... about 6 times, does this mean we are officially dating ?

Q.   I've been "seeing" a guy for a few weeks (seen each other 6 times, which amounts 1-2 times a week). We're both in our late 20s. We speak virtually every night on the phone. The problem is this: while I feel like we have a great time when we are...

A.   30 April 2007: Haha I miss being twelve when you could just turn around and say "So, are we going out then?" Those days were so much less complicated. My guess is that if things feel awkward when you're saying goodbye then there's something there. Feel the way ... (read in full...)

We argued and he didn't come after me! Should I forgive him, or just let it go?

Q.   I've been with my boyfriend for almost 2 years, and I've always been there by his side through the good and bad. We had an argument at one of his friends houses, something we could have worked out like we always do, but he walked away from me and ...

A.   29 April 2007: He didn't come after you but you didn't turn back and go to him either. You were both equally in the wrong. It shouldn't always have to be him making the first move. He's confirmed he loves you and cares for you but you don't believe it and it seems ... (read in full...)

Q.   I am 16, my boyfriend is 22. his ex is having his baby in a months time, and my parents know this.. we started seeing each other only 3 months ago, he is getting a lot of crap from people about my age and a lot of drama is caused.. the situatio...

A.   29 April 2007: I think it's natural for your dad to be worried, not so much because of his age but more because his life is so complicated. Are you prepared for the effects this baby is going to have on his life? His first responsibility will always be to the baby ... (read in full...)

A.   29 April 2007: It sounds as if your husband is trying to blackmail you to stay by saying there will be no money. If you own half the business then half of the money belongs to you and even if he has to sell the business to give you your share then he is legally ... (read in full...)

A.   29 April 2007: Have you asked your friend why she hates this guy? It seems to me that it'll be one of two reasons.... either that she's jealous that you have a boyfriend and she doesn't or that she knows something about your boyfriend that she can't tell you ... (read in full...)

A.   29 April 2007: I understand both sides of your situation. On one hand you're worried that you're going to carry on like this forever and it's going to end up being your joint money rather than his being given to his family. However, I think maybe the fact that ... (read in full...)

A.   29 April 2007: The salsa is a great idea for trying to get your life back. Finding yourself single must be such a shock after years of marriage and in time you'll feel ready to get out there and meet people again, although it might still be too soon for you. ... (read in full...)

A.   29 April 2007: It's not morally wrong to sleep with each other when you've broken up. It comes down to a question of choice. Do you think you can separate your feelings for him enough to be able to have sex but not expect to get back together? Personally I ... (read in full...)

A.   28 April 2007: I don't think you should tell him if he's with someone else. It'll only confuse him and jeopardise a relationship which likely makes him very happy. If you were both single I'd tell you to tell him asap but if you were to tell him it'd be a selfish ... (read in full...)

A.   28 April 2007: Okay... my advice. There's not enough room in any relationship for two people who are insecure. They inevitably fall apart for truly stupid reasons and it would be a shame to see that happen to you. When you're watching a video you're watching what ... (read in full...)

A.   28 April 2007: I think that, as a matter of courtesy he should walk you home anyway, especially if you're leaving his when it's dark. However this isn't compulsory and it doesn't make him a bad boyfriend if he doesn't, just inconsiderate. He's trying to blackmail ... (read in full...)
