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

Q.   Hello! Somebody please help me. I started work here a year ago and I've got to know a guy really well... lets call him J. We've spent a lot of time together, lunch breaks, nights out at weekends, etc etc. He says i mean the world to him, th...

A.   16 May 2007: Well is he like that with other women? I'm sure you've seen him with other women if you've known him for a year. Of course the easiest course of action is just to ask him out. Who cares if he says no? There's a couple of seconds of awkwardness and ... (read in full...)

Should i be right to think that this is maybe an easy way out as surely she could of said on the phone rather than letting me believe we were still meeting up.

Q.   Hi, ive recently met a girl (19) and im (21). On our first date we just clicked and we didnt look back. There was something about her we would just lay there staring into each others eyes whilst exchanging the occasional smooch. Normally i would of ...

A.   16 May 2007: You know what? I feel the same as her. I read your opening paragraph and then read two weeks and gasped. She's not dumping you, she's just worried you're going to talk her out of taking things slow. Write her an email and tell her you agree that ... (read in full...)

My husband told me that he wants a penis enlargement

Q.   My husband told me that he wants a penis enlargement. He said it will make our sex life hotter and better - even though our sex life, is, on the whole - reasonably good. I'd never have a breast enlargement because it'd mean I'd have to buy expe...

A.   16 May 2007: Ultimately it's his body and it's up to him what he does with it although I understand you being concerned that your opinion doesn't count. Support him, tell him it's not necessary etc and research any risks on the internet so that you're aware of ... (read in full...)

I can't help but feel that there was someone else

Q.   Hi, i have recently moved back in with my husband after he decided after 7 months of marriage he did not want to be committed and was not sure what he wanted. After giving him this time he wanted me back, he said he is sure he will not do this ...

A.   16 May 2007: My first thought is that he wouldn't have asked you to come back if he was seeing someone else. My second is that you deserve to feel hurt and betrayed and all those other things when you think of him. My third is that you really need to d... (read in full...)

A.   16 May 2007: Okay, this will sound harsh but think about it and you'll know it's true. It's not that you can't get rid of him, it's that you don't want to. There's nothing physical holding you back from telling him to get lost and then sticking to your guns but ... (read in full...)

He said he's not ready to get involved but has asked me over to stay tomorrow night but I'm scared to because of the way I feel about him...

Q.   hi guys, i'm a bit worried. I was seeing this guy for about 2 months, but he wasn't ready to get into a relationship so it never worked out. Since then it hasn't been awkward, and we've became really good friends. Though i get the impressio...

A.   16 May 2007: It's possible tht he's relaxed at the thought of you staying over but my instinct when reading your post is that he will use your vulnerability with liking him and needing a place to stay to force you into doing things you don't want to do outside ... (read in full...)

I don't want him to just "use me" as he has done this before in past relationships.

Q.   I really like this guy, i used 2 go out with him but we broke up because he didnt treat me very well, and if i go out with him my friends will go against me because they all hate him and think i do as well. i think he likes me a little bit more than ...

A.   16 May 2007: Friends will last infinitely longer than boyfriends, especially at your age. There doesn't seem to be any reasons in favour of going out with him except your attraction to him. I'm sure if you give yourself a chance you will be attracted to other ... (read in full...)

A.   16 May 2007: If you've just come out of a relationship it strikes me that this man is probably your rebound guy. Perhaps he represents everything you want? A stable relationship with kids etc... I know how hard unrequited love, even rebound love can be to get ... (read in full...)

A.   16 May 2007: Probably nobody would employ you anyway because you need to have a national insurance number to get any job that doesn't pay cash in hand. Why not shop for clothes in charity shops? It's not all old lady clothes... or see if there are things you can ... (read in full...)

Is he over her or hanging on? Is he still thinking about her?

Q.   My boyfriend and I started dating about eight months ago. He ended a 4-year relationship last spring. He moved to our area about 3-4 months after ending his last relationship, but last week when I was looking for a paper in his desk, I came across ...

A.   15 May 2007: Don't you keep pictures of you and your exes? I know I do, even though I haven't thought about most of them in ages before I answered your post. I really wouldn't worry about this. It's natural to feel insecure about those who have gone before us ... (read in full...)

A.   15 May 2007: It all depends on your perceptions and morals. As a virgin I would be especially careful about giving yourself after a month. Although most people regret their first time it seems that after waiting so long that you deserve a great first time. If ... (read in full...)

A.   15 May 2007: Okay, this is why I think his mum is upset about the two of you dating. He's scared that you're going to have sex, which at your age is illegal and possibly also scared that you're going to end up pregnant. Your boyfriend needs to talk to his mum ... (read in full...)

A.   15 May 2007: I think you have to date other people. Do you think someone who really loved you would treat you badly, not be able to scrape together a train fare, put you through emotional hell when you were doing your finals and date other girls in the meantime? ... (read in full...)

A.   15 May 2007: Well if you can't forgive her what kind of relationship will it be? A relationship needs trust and honest to survive. Do you think you can get that back? Think carefully about telling the wife. My guess is that you only want to do it to make you... (read in full...)

Q.   Heres my story. Only lately I have accepted that I might be gay. I have liked a guy younger than me for the past few years. He is 15, and I am 18. One night he stayed at my house and we got rather drunk. We sat together like old mates, ...

A.   15 May 2007: Hiya, just a quick comment about one of yours. You're right that 15 year old girls often go out with older men but I think the difference here is that as a young gay man, he's perhaps a little more vulnerable than a girl. Is he sure that he's gay? I ... (read in full...)

Friend problems! Should I ditch my so called old friends and be a loner at school or carry on being un-happy?

A.   15 May 2007: I think it would be a shame to lose friends that you've had for such a long time,especially since as you said you find it difficult to make friends. Girls will be bitches and especially at your age it's a hard habit to break. This would be my ... (read in full...)

A.   15 May 2007: I'm with you, I don't think her fiance should have this degre of power over her either but the awful thing is that neither your or my opinion counts here. She needs to see that he's crowding her for herself and find a way to stick up for herself ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi. I know this woman wants me and she's said that I'm the best man she's ever met. Yet, she has a child from a previous relationship and her ex has started making more demands of her time, expecting her to take the kid to and from him for visits. ...

A.   15 May 2007: She's made the decision because it agrees with her principles and morals. In some ways I am with her. I would always advise someone to work extra hard at their relationship for the sake of their child. So many couples just think about themselves and ... (read in full...)

Q.   if i am blonde haired and my boyfriend is brown haired does this mean our children have a good chance of having ginger hair?...

A.   14 May 2007: Possibly, but not because you're mixing blonde and dark hair. For your child to be ginger they have to get one ginger gene off you and one off their dad. Hair colour genes run in pairs so if each of you has one ginger in that pair then it's ... (read in full...)

A.   14 May 2007: I guess it depends on the timing involved. I can't believe you would actually think it's ok to make her hold on indefinitely for you if you took more than a month to make a decision about how you felt. After all, if you thought there was no chance ... (read in full...)

A.   14 May 2007: I think everyone suffers from sweaty palms, it's a common side effect of nerves and I'm guessing at your age that dancing with a guy and holding hands makes you nervous, hell it even makes me nervous if I like te guy enough. Unfortunately I don't ... (read in full...)

A.   14 May 2007: Going anywhere is going too far when you're both with people. I have to ask why you're still with your current boyfriend if you haven't been happy for a while. Is it that it's better to be with someone than alone? If so can you see how that hampers ... (read in full...)

A.   13 May 2007: Sounds like Jack has decided to forgive Sarah. Although you told him what was happening with the best of intentions I strongly advise not doing stuff like this again. He could easily have told her what you'd said and she could've denied it and said ... (read in full...)

A.   13 May 2007: Yeah, normally I would advise people to tell the other person how they feel and take a risk to be happy but at fourteen I'm not sure this guy is mature enough not to let it affect your friendship. Also, he seems to have made it pretty clear that he ... (read in full...)

A.   12 May 2007: Okay, so I've never had an affair but I thought I would give you an opinion anyway which is that people who cheat with married men do so for two reasons that can exist together but only just. One is that they think they are so special that they ... (read in full...)
