Q.   Q. My boyfriend and i have been together for almost five years and although i enjoy the sex it always seems to be the same and everytime we try different positions they dont seem to work out right or i dont orgasm. So i was wondering if anyone had ...

A.   11 January 2011: First Q - there are a lot of ways to spice things up, and every couple is different in what works for them. You could role play, introduce food like whipped cream and chocolate, try adding some toys into the mix, use a lube to change the experience ... (read in full...)

Does she cheat on me?

Q.   I had a difficult relationship for one year. she was always being very rude to me. And she was always with a guy that was her colleague. Then, she broke up with me and went to work in a new school where her colleague was going to work also. A fe...

A.   11 January 2011: This girl is bad, bad news. She sounds a lot like my ex-wife, who was also screwing everything in sight behind my back. Show her the door!... (read in full...)

I want to date my co-worker.

Q.   I want to ask out one of my male coworkers, but I'm not sure if it is a good idea. We talk and joke around a lot and he seems genuinely interested in me, but I don't want to make it awkward if he doesn't like me. How should I go forth in this ...

A.   11 January 2011: I'll echo the advice to go slowly, but think it is perfectly fine to date coworkers as long as there is no company policy against it. I met my ex-wife through work, and that relationship lasted for 10 years (though I quit and found a new job when ... (read in full...)

Should we still have sex anyway?

Q.   I have been married to my husband for almost 3 yrs, it fell apart because I treated him like a nobody and wasnt very greatful for the things he did for me and our son. And now that I saw my mistakes he chose not to be with me anymore and I ...

A.   11 January 2011: While going through a divorce, I had to live with my ex-wife for several months. We did not continue to have sex during that time and I feel that it was the right decision. Divorce is a very emotional time, particularly with a child involved. It is ... (read in full...)

Can a relationship recover after cheating by a partner?

Q.   I'm very curious about this because I have been cheated on. I would reallly like to move past it, and still be in a relationship with this man. He has done everything he can to earn my trust back and I do completely trust him again. I don't think he ...

A.   10 January 2011: I know a few different couples whose relationships survived through cheating, so it is possible. Personally I don't know how they do it, though. My ex-wife cheated on me, and the only thing that finally got me over the resentment and pain was when I ... (read in full...)

My BF and I are in our 40s', but is it ok for us to spend the night together, at the risk of setting a bad example to our kids?

Q.   my boyfriend and I met 8 months ago and we are in our 40's. the problem is he has 2 daughters 20,22 and I have one son 7 years old. We don't live near eachother so we don't get much time alone. When we are together we can't be alone in our rooms ...

A.   8 January 2011: I think if you want to make things "legit", then engaged isn't enough. If you want to put all of the questioning to rest, then marriage is required. As far as the two daughters, it sounds like they run their dad or he's using that as an excuse t... (read in full...)

Why can't I get past a 3rd date?

Q.   I have been trying to date for a good 6 years now and no one has ever showed an interest in staying with me past a third date or so. I am 28 years old and have been rated an "8" on a looks scale from 1-10. I make close to 6 figures in a good ...

A.   8 January 2011: It's all about confidence and attitude. You have to project that you enjoy life to its fullest and that you will have your fun with or without the woman you're on a date with, so it is her loss if she chooses not to come along. You also can't come ... (read in full...)

Q.   I'm an older woman dating a much younger man. I am in my 40's and he's in his 20's. Actually he is 27. We met online about five months ago. We met face to face about 2 months ago. I like him a lot and he tells me that he likes me too. Most of the ...

A.   8 January 2011: He might still have something going on with one of his baby mamas, but it is also possible that he's telling the truth and he just wants to be around his kids for the holidays. He did introduce you to his family which is a good sign.... (read in full...)

My BF and I are in our 40s', but is it ok for us to spend the night together, at the risk of setting a bad example to our kids?

Q.   my boyfriend and I met 8 months ago and we are in our 40's. the problem is he has 2 daughters 20,22 and I have one son 7 years old. We don't live near eachother so we don't get much time alone. When we are together we can't be alone in our rooms ...

A.   8 January 2011: Fabulosa is correct, and Cerberus is wrong. The two daughters are adults. They are having sex themselves. So, there's no damage to be done to them if you and your boyfriend are spending the night together. However, the 7 year old is very impressi... (read in full...)

How long is long enough to expect commitment when you are sleeping with a guy??

Q.   I began dating this guy about 2.5 months ago. I had just gotten out of a short term relationship, and before that had a baby and was in a long term before that. He had just gotten out of a divorce a year ago, and the night we first "hooked up...

A.   8 January 2011: I completely agree with Odds, except I have a suspicion that the FWB arrangement wasn't exclusive on his end. I've known all too many women who thought their casual hookups were exclusive only to later find out the guy they were sleeping with had ... (read in full...)

I want more from him than he can give me right now

Q.   I'm hoping someone can help me. Here's my story. I'm seeing a man who lives over an hour from me and is going through a divorce. He has not moved out yet, however. He is still living with his wife/to be ex and kids while saving money to set-up ...

A.   8 January 2011: As a man who went through a divorce, my concern is that he probably started this relationship with you while he was still healing & getting over his failed marriage. So there's a definite risk you could be a rebound. There are different stages one ... (read in full...)

A.   8 January 2011: You cheated, so she doesn't trust you anymore. The harsh reality is you've probably blown this opportunity forever. That's what happens to "players" when they find someone they later realize they wanted something real with.... (read in full...)

A.   7 January 2011: First of all, your own suggestion of seeking counseling is a very good one. A professional can be the unbiased buffer between you two to work this out. That said, it is my firm belief that if either half of a couple does not absolutely want a c... (read in full...)

Ruined my chances?

Q.   A few days ago I saw the girl I like in the hall. She said hi and smiled (because she liked me too), but I think I ruined my chances. We had gone out once before (but without any sort of action..close to our second date even..) And this is very ...

A.   7 January 2011: It is my belief that girls form an opinion of a guy pretty quickly in terms of whether he's someone they're willing to date or not. Since you had already established a baseline with this girl, I therefore doubt a small misstep like the one you ... (read in full...)

How much is too much when it comes to complimenting girls?

Q.   I've had two very serious relationships in my life (they lasted one and five years respectively, and I was going to move in with the last one) and I see a common pattern between them. Okay, two relationships may not be statistically significant, but ...

A.   7 January 2011: In my experience, it is often the girls who have confidence and self esteem issues that will eventually cheat. Here's how it goes - they don't have a good self image, so when you come along and compliment them it makes them feel good. Like they're ... (read in full...)

Can I trust a woman who had an affair with her best friend's husband?

Q.   Can i trust a woman who has had a 3 year affair with her best friends husband? My previous post explained that my GF was off to Mexico with friends for Xmas. My concerns were that on the night before her departure she called me by another guy's na...

A.   7 January 2011: In a word - no. My experience tells me that cheaters cannot be trusted. In this case there are additional red flags, those being that the guy was married, and married to her best friend no less. Avoid!... (read in full...)

A.   7 January 2011: I'm 34 and have dated women as young as 22 in the past few months, and the gap was not a problem. As long as you both are on the same page in terms of what type of relationship you're seeking then it won't be a barrier. So I say go for it!... (read in full...)

Q.   Hello Can you ever get together with someone after a one night stand or have you completely blown it?? Any opinions?? Anyone ever got with anyone after this?? ...

A.   5 January 2011: I agree with eyeswideopen. A one night stand can turn into an ongoing casual or FWB relationship, but it is unlikely to turn into anything enduring and serious. It is not a good way to start a "real" relationship.... (read in full...)

Q.   I don't suppose this is relationship per se but it's just something I've been pondering and can't answer it myself! Well I have been seeing this guy for a while now and we've been making out and stuff but things are starting to get a bit more h...

A.   5 January 2011: In my area at least, with girls in their early 20's the norm is either completely shaven, or mostly shaven with some remaining hair up above which is typically trimmed. Leaving it in a natural, completely untrimmed state would definitely be against ... (read in full...)

Q.   well theres this girl that i graduated with a few years ago and i saw her at a restaurant the other night along with my friend who happened to be her friend as well, so we talked a lil bit and im pretty attracted to her but we dont know each other ...

A.   5 January 2011: Yes, you should start by talking to your mutual friend. Maybe see if your friend knows if she'll be somewhere you could happen to run into her, or if you could get her phone number so you can ask her out.... (read in full...)

A.   4 January 2011: This is quite similar to the situation I was in with my ex-wife. She was 26 and I was 21 when we first met. My experience says that you can enjoy this relationship and have some fun for a while, but it is unlikely to last in the long run. An older ... (read in full...)

Q.   I need help LADIES please answer this one, as you're the only ones that can... So I've been dating this girl, who is conflicted about her ex, but since I was so persistent, I guess she gave me a chance perhaps as a payback to her ex. My question is ...

A.   4 January 2011: I have to agree with Jmtmj. She's using you when it is convenient for her, nothing more. You are her doormat. Time to cut her loose and look for someone who has it together.... (read in full...)

A.   4 January 2011: I would give it a couple more days and then text or email him. If he's interested you'll still be on his mind and he'll respond to you, assuming he doesn't contact you before then. If a girl comes across as very eager, I'll play it cool even if I'm ... (read in full...)

Q.   So here goes, I met this girl and we talked on the phone last night. We talked for about 30 min and I thought everything went really well. Out of the blue she was like " I have to take this call, can I call you back." Of course I said yes. She said ...

A.   4 January 2011: That's a lot of contact attempts with a girl you just met. I would not send any more texts or make any more calls until you hear from her. The ball is in her court, she said she'd call back. If you don't hear from her then you know.... (read in full...)

Do women's sex drives fall off in their mid 30s?
