*ostandalone's profile:

I am a 32 year old male from the US and I have alot of general life experiences. What qualifies me to help other people is the fact that I am an observer of life. I am an avid reader and majoring in mathmatics and psycology doesn't hurt. I am currently single(going through a bad break-up). I just enjoy helping people and I am very open-minded.

A.   12 September 2006: Martini. You went to the bottom of the ocean on that!!! You have to also understand that yes there are variables that determine stances on your theory. Yes, lust and love have something in common. You can have either without the other. Now to ... (read in full...)

Q.   I met and dated my wife for 3 years before we married. Everything was wonderful. She had 2 children from a previous marriage who were very young (7 months 2 1/2 years) when I came into the picture and who I adore. We do joint custody with the ...

A.   12 September 2006: You haven't given yourself time enough to heal. Now, you have moved back with the intention of making it work. Thats commendable but with that said you have to put it in the past and if you haven't then it won't work with or without a child ... (read in full...)

A.   12 September 2006: What do you mean "how should I proceed from here?" You're doing fine right now. You told her how you felt. The only thing left for you to do is stick to your guns. This behaviour of hers is totally unacceptable and should be addressed and thats ... (read in full...)

A.   12 September 2006: I agree with anon. I think that people who try to talk against your heart or what you feel have been hurt so badly that they can't advise because they can't see past their own pain. I am a child who was conceived out of an affair. My father was ... (read in full...)

A.   12 September 2006: TRUST. Until you have reason not to. You're worrying yourself over unknowns and you are only hurting yourself. Every man doesn't cheat or gets some just because he can. Some of us actually have enough gall to love who we are with. Forget it and ... (read in full...)

Q.   Can a man be in love with his mistress and his wife at the same time? But is torn between the two....

A.   12 September 2006: I don't think so. I feel like a man who has love for his wife wouldn't have a mistress. Have an affair and still love I can see because there could be something missing at home at some point. That doesn't mean he doesn't love his wife. I think ... (read in full...)

A.   11 September 2006: OMG!!!! No you can't get pregnant this way. There has to be sperm and an egg combination. A finger I'm afraid just doesn't cut it. How old are you anyway? I'm curious. Be aware of these things before you get into them. You will end up hurting ... (read in full...)

A.   11 September 2006: Personally, I just thinks he wants his cake and eat it too. He can date anyone he wants and still have you too. I know you love him but have some self-respect. Tell him it is or it isn't. If he can't just be friends than maybe you shouldn't ... (read in full...)
