A.   8 February 2008: You have been given lots of good advice, try taking it. Why go with a married man?, even if you end up with him eventually it won't be long before he is up to his old tricks. This time you will be the victim, the woman left at home while he goes off ... (read in full...)

A.   27 January 2008: It does seem unfair that you are not allowed around there with your b/f, especially as it coincides with plans you have made. Why do you not get on with his mother?, you may find you have to resolve things with her as you could end up marrying her ... (read in full...)

A.   27 January 2008: Your marriage sounds as though it is going downhill. I don't know of anyone that would be ok seeing their wife/husband having sex with someone else. You need to speak to your wife (not about you watching) but about your marriage in general, she must ... (read in full...)

Can birth control pills impede breast development

Q.   Hiya i'm 16. Kind of an embarrassing question but would the pill have stopped my breats from growing. I'm not very big, a 32A and although they aren't totally flat theres nothing on top so they r moe pointy. Thing is i was on the pill at the age of ...

A.   27 January 2008: I wouldn't have thought the pill would make any difference, it is probably to do with your genes. As far as breast size goes i think we tend to follow our mother's. If your mother has a small bust, chances are you will too and vice versa. ... (read in full...)

A.   27 January 2008: You can't go on like this, him staying out all night without letting you know his plans, especially with his past history. I can't believe he has not contacted you, you gave him a second chance, he has now blown it. You need to get on with your own ... (read in full...)

A.   26 January 2008: I'm sorry but your post did sound funny. I think you over reacted a little as to me personally finding a sex toy is no real issue. I think you should talk to him and have a laugh about it. It could have been a lot worse. I think the fact that you ... (read in full...)

A.   22 January 2008: Surely you are better off without this man, as he has not behaved well. Better to count yourself lucky. As for telling his wife, well if he is as good at lying as you say he is he is sure to wiggle out of it and you will look like some tart that was ... (read in full...)

A.   22 January 2008: I don't think there is anything wrong in you contacting this man and seeing how he is. As you say you like him, he likes you too. If for some reason he is not interested then at least you know, and that has to be better than waiting around for him ... (read in full...)
