Hi! My name is Devin, but my friends call me DV1. I currently live in Pennsylvania, USA. I'm currently in a serious relationship, and I've found that special someone... I've been in and out of relationships for many years. I've been lied to, cheated on, and lost friendships over relationships. I've found that I've taken many lessons from my experiences, and I want to use those experiences to help others. I'm just your average, run-of-the-mill guy, who sees himself as a hopeless romantic of sorts. I'm just lucky that I've found that special someone who doesn't get involved in drama, and just wants me for me. I want to help others find someone, or stay with someone who makes them feel appreciated. If I can cause at least one person on this planet to find or hold onto happiness, then my job here is done.

Best wishes,

DV1

A.   24 July 2008: You guys both cheated on each other. If you really loved each other, you guys would have been dedicated to each other, no matter how far apart you were. I don't see my girlfriend as much as I would like, but when we're together, we make the best of ... (read in full...)

Do I tell my date that I may not be ready to date him just yet?

Q.   I have a date this weekend with a great guy (an acquaintance, not a friend), but I realize that I may not be quite ready to date anyone after ending a very serious relationship that lasted 5 years (my ex and I were both civilized about it, but there ...

A.   24 July 2008: Tell him that you're still getting over your last relationship. I might still suggest going on the date, because you never know if he could be that person that might turn your whole world around. The last relationship might have been God's way of ... (read in full...)

Q.   hey my long distance boyfriend will be coming to visit me soon but i dont know how to go about when he gets here..as in what do i do,i want him to have the best time ever.....

A.   23 July 2008: It's about compromise. Know how much time you've got to work with. I'm not in a long distance relationship, but both of us work a lot. We make a few days a week for each other, whether it's a few minutes, a few hours, or a few days. Figure out a ... (read in full...)

I said I love you, and he bolted, should I keep it to myself next time?

Q.   Please tell me why it is when a woman tells a man she loves him even if its in the early stages-he then dumps her? I can understand him getting scared but who has said anyone can make him move in marry heror be exclusive etc -no one can make them ...

A.   3 July 2008: Telling someone that early on can be scary. It's something that one needs to build up to. Guys like to enjoy the new relationship for a long time before they're ready to express that kind of strong emotion. He probably felt like you were already ... (read in full...)

I kept asking, found out she had sex with another man, now I am hurting, please help?

Q.   I dated a girl for about a year. We decided to end it because we were both going to be apart from eachother because of college. About four months ago we decided to get back together. At first, it was the greatest thing that has happened to me. ...

A.   3 July 2008: The lowest thing that you can do to someone is to date their best friend. If she did that, and cheated on you, I'm sorry to say, she never respected you in the first place. The heart can only ache for so long before it forces itself to move on. Give ... (read in full...)

A.   3 July 2008: I think he may just be busy. There's also a thing guys do, though. Guys don't want girls thinking that they have to be the center of their universe. Because of that, they say that they're busy, or try to find something to do to not look needy... ... (read in full...)

I think I luv him, but he shows no interest, what should I do?

Q.   im 16 and my boyfriend is 18 im really attached to him and its like never spend time with me but only one time i really love him but i dont know what to do...

A.   3 July 2008: In the U.S., a 16 yr. old dating an 18 yr. old can be very dangerous water to tread in. I would put things on hold until you turn 18, because there's the risk that things might go to far. If you guys end up having sex, instead of landing in your ... (read in full...)

A.   9 November 2007: It's something that I fight through every day. If it really comes to it, get large rubber bands, and flick them on your wrists. It hurts, but it won't cause any permanent damage. I'm not going to feed you the crap that they tell you in counseling. ... (read in full...)

A.   4 October 2007: The first thing that you need to do is take a deep breath. The funny thing about life is that things grow and change. Think about it like this-things are changing in your life, bringing you challenges. You can either beat those challenges, or you ... (read in full...)

A.   4 October 2007: It sounds like he doesn't know what he wants. It seems like you're the definite option in his life, and he doesn't want to lose you, because the other girls might not work out. I have been in this situation, and the best thing that you can do is ... (read in full...)

A.   4 October 2007: Do you really feel that you made a mistake, or is it that you're afraid of being single? Why did you dump this person? I would take those questions into consideration. Before you consider trying to get them back, you need to look at it from their ... (read in full...)

A.   5 September 2007: I agree with the above statement. Get to know the person that you're going to be on a date with. You don't want to jump right into a relationship with someone who could or could not end up to be a Ted Bundy... Remember, looks are only one thing... ... (read in full...)

Q.   The man that I was dated the previous months now is always occupied with his work and his own matters. Although I have called him some times and seems interested to get out with me he doesn't eventually arrange a date. Sometimes he called me but I ...

A.   5 September 2007: I'm in the same boat as him. What it comes down to is lack of time. He's not trying to offend you, or drive you away. In this day and age, a lot of people get a job, not foreseeing that they could be taken advantage of by the place that they're ... (read in full...)

A.   5 September 2007: I may come out sounding a little harsh here, but I'm going to bottom line it for you. She chose you as second best to another guy. That's all you'll ever be, no matter how bad she makes him sound. She might also be playing a game also, making him ... (read in full...)

A.   5 September 2007: I wouldn't worry about it. If he's telling you about his friends, he's trying to share a part of his life with you. If he's inviting her to places where he knows you're at also, maybe he's trying to drop a hint. It seems like he wants you two to get ... (read in full...)

A.   3 September 2007: I don't think I can comprehend how cheating on one's partner is normal. It doesn't sound that way to me. Part of me wants to believe that people can change, but part of me knows that cheaters rarely change their ways. Dv1... (read in full...)

A.   3 September 2007: You definitely did the right thing. When you're going to have a baby, you've got to have a place for the baby to stay, and food to feed it, and clothes to keep it warm. It sounds like she's not thinking everything through, and there's nothing that ... (read in full...)

A.   3 September 2007: If he's not pushing you into sex, then don't worry about it. He at least waited until you were in bed to watch it, which means he respects you enough to wait. Guys have needs to, and if they're not being met, he's got his right to satisfy him in a ... (read in full...)

A.   11 August 2007: I've given the same advice I've given to you. It may sound harsh, but it's worked many a time. Take the fat that you have, and turn it into muscle. Stop picking up the phone every time she calls. Stop spending time on her, and invest that time into ... (read in full...)
