A.   27 October 2012: It sounds to me as if you know you are vulnerable at the present time hence why you told yourself not to get involved. He could be a player or just someone who gets in too deep too quick. Perhaps you should consider just being friendly but allowing ... (read in full...)

A.   3 March 2007: Even if the female doctor did touch his penis and smile it doesn't mean she was being inappropriate. She may have just been trying to keep him at ease and being a man he looked for more into it?... (read in full...)

A.   3 March 2007: I think chronological age is irrelevant. Yes, I think life experience counts but it is how a person learns and responds to those experiences that matter. I remember thinking at about age 16, as a cadet nurse, that wisdom does not come with age but ... (read in full...)

A.   22 January 2007: If you genuinely are not attracted to her as a long term mate then just be firm and sensitive. Gently disregard her advances with a smile and keep a sensible distance. If it is just the age putting you off, keep friends with her for a year and see ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi. I am 21, and have been married nearly a year now to the first love of my life, whom I met when I was 15! I have always had eyes for her and only her - until three months ago my mind told me that I was too young and missing out! I have me...

A.   21 January 2007: This sounds so familiar and it destroyed my first marriage because my husband made me feel so insecure he had married too young. We are still in touch 30 years later and regret our divorce and he has married 3 more times since! Now he has had plen... (read in full...)

A.   21 January 2007: I agree with Dr Pete. It would be interesting to know what her blood pressure is, as when she gets aroused it could be going up too high. If she is too embarrassed to say when it happens she could at least go and have her blood pressure and ... (read in full...)

A.   21 January 2007: You need to ask your GP or midwife for social services to assess you urgently, maybe to go to a safe house such as a hostel. It isn't ideal, but that way you would be safe from physical abuse whilst you get your thoughts together and have access to ... (read in full...)

Ready for divorce?

Q.   How do you know when your ready for DIVORCE? Both financially and emotionally?...

A.   21 January 2007: It is too much of a bland question as although I appreciate there has to be some financial ability to make the break, I would say there is that time when you know for certain that you cannot stay with that person to whom you are married for ever. As ... (read in full...)

A.   13 January 2007: I like the 'go with the flow' idea. What have you got to lose? But I agree not to sound too keen by acting as if you were just waiting for his call. Just bear in mind that you may become even more attached to him and he may be someone who has a girl ... (read in full...)

A.   12 January 2007: Ponoangalub, Sorry, cannot find the source of the circumcision thing. It was a different article and the reason it gave was that that some men who are circumcised needed a lubricant in the absence of a foreskin. Anyway, it isn't supported anywhere... (read in full...)

A.   12 January 2007: He said "You are my real wife". To me that implies he has an 'unreal' wife. I suspect his divorce was a lie or he has found someone else who he maybe spending his free time with and he didn't know how to let you down. Hard as it sounds, you are ... (read in full...)

A.   7 January 2007: It sounds like a bit of a generation gap view on expectations of life. I think you 'settle down' if you have a desire to be a mother and wife, but not everyone sees that as their lot in life these days. Anyway, who says you have to settle down even ... (read in full...)

A.   6 January 2007: I can see how the possible preganancy may be scary and and your parents will probably be the ones to help you if it turns out to be true. The relationship is questionable in respect that the potential father may not have been at least a loving ... (read in full...)

Q.   Whats the difference between infatuation and love?...

A.   1 January 2007: I think that infatuation is a short-term obsession probably based on lust, desire, but without knowing that person to any great depth. There is an attachment that feels like 'love' but infatuation can be overwhelming and destructive as it may be to ... (read in full...)

A.   31 December 2006: I think your new boyfriend is being disrepectful to your requests and it is a bad sign that he is not taking you seriously. It is reasonable to get to know someone well before such advances are acceptable. It is a form of sexual harrassment and no ... (read in full...)

Q.   I am a 48 year old male in good health. For the last several years I have had trouble achieving orgasm. It just gets harder and harder to climax and sometimes I just give up. The only way I can orgasm is by tensing up my body and stiffening my ...

A.   31 December 2006: Perhaps you are trying too hard. It may help if you abstain for a week then your body may respond more urgently. If you are using porn to orgasm this is also showing to have the effect you are talking about. You can end up in a vicious circle where ... (read in full...)

Q.   Is there anything I can do? My boyfriend of 6 years broke up with me 8 months ago and as you can probably guess I've had a tough, very depressed time trying to get on with my life. I thought he was the man I would spend the rest of my life with but ...

A.   31 December 2006: From what you describe I would tell him. You have been close enough to him for all those years and perhaps he needed to see if you gave up easily. If you are right and he is depressed and feeling unworthy then you would have done the right thing. If ... (read in full...)

A.   30 December 2006: If you are sure he didn't go near you 'down below' and he only touched your back and under your bra then no, you cannot be pregnant. However if there is ANY uncertainty, get a pregnancy test. Also consider getting some contraception by attending ... (read in full...)

A.   24 December 2006: It is a sob story, but that doesn't mean it is justified. You are just being honest about how you feel and that is where sites like these really help you vent your feelings. Yes, there are always people much worse off than ourselves but that doesn't ... (read in full...)

A.   23 December 2006: I am really sorry you feel so bad, but anti-depressents do not resolve life's problems. On the other hand, the ones currently in use are not like the old ones of a few years ago and they can help when we are struggling to cope. The old ones used to ... (read in full...)

A.   23 December 2006: It is too soon to know about being 'friends with your ex'. Things are way too confusing right now for both of you. In my experience, which is probably not everyone's view, is that you have to sort out the baggage first. You said you both had issues ... (read in full...)
