A.   22 February 2012: I don't think you're being silly or unreasonable. It seems as though all of this stress may be taking a toll on him, and maybe your relationship has just temporarily been put on the back burner. I wouldn't take it as him being uninterested. I wou... (read in full...)

A.   22 February 2012: Many people go through a questioning or experimental stage. It's perfectly normal. You could be gay, as about 10% of the population is, but this particular incident does not necessarily mean that you are. You could also be bisexual. I'm bisexual, ... (read in full...)

A.   17 February 2012: If a woman is taken, you have to let her go. That's a can or worms you don't want to open up. As for finding someone, try going out where there will be women that you can casually flirt with. Maybe have a friend set you up, or go on a group date. ... (read in full...)

A.   16 February 2012: It sounds as though both of you are pretty insecure. Neither of you can handle your partner hanging around with the opposite sex, but yet you both want to do it yourselves. You absolutely have to hold yourself to the same standard that you hold your ... (read in full...)

A.   16 February 2012: Doggy is a position that many women find painful because the angle is a bit different and he may often hit your cervix if he is long enough. The positioning of your legs also does not allow for easy penetration. If you don't enjoy this position... (read in full...)

A.   16 February 2012: I don't think your parents understand that telling a teenager to do something will usually backfire. I don't think that it's fair of your parents to try to control your relationship. You are growing into an adult,and you must learn to make your own ... (read in full...)

A.   16 February 2012: If she is a beautiful person that you seem to want to spend your life with, then I wouldn't let her go. A deep and meaningful relationship extends past physical attraction. That is usually part of it, but the most important thing is personality ... (read in full...)

A.   11 February 2012: It seems as though you have a very negative perspective on sex. It is true that many people are not virgins by the time that they are in your age group, but they do exist. More important than finding a girl who is a virgin is finding a girl who... (read in full...)

What can I do to avoid or discourage this teacher's creepy actions?

Q.   There is this teacher in my school who is new this year. I do not have him as my teacher so I don't understand why he constantly tries to talk to me all the time especially in the hallways. Half the time he ends up walking into school around the ...

A.   11 February 2012: Sounds a little creepy, you're right. First off, if he is making you feel unsafe or uncomfortable, you should talk to your principal or school counselor. Tell them that they need to keep an eye on this guy, and that he is showing an abnormal ... (read in full...)

A.   3 February 2012: Just because you leave him, doesn't mean that he can't be involved in the child's life. If he is good with children then there is no real reason to exclude him from the child's upbringing, and would even be a disservice to your child. If you are ... (read in full...)

A.   30 January 2012: It's incredibly inconsiderate for him to blow you off and not be emotionally supportive like that, but he is also going through stresses just like you are. Women are generally happier about pregnancy than men are, they get that nesting instinct, ... (read in full...)

A.   27 January 2012: In my opinion, this doesn't really sound like an issue of sex addiction, but maybe it is. Only your doctor/psychologist can say. I think that you temporarily lost your self control. The one night stands and hookers of your twenties seem to have been ... (read in full...)

A.   26 January 2012: I understand where you're coming from, I think. Not many women enjoy knowing that their guy is getting his rocks off by looking at other women, especially if you're sexually available and willing. Why does he need porn if he is attracted to you? T... (read in full...)
