A.   31 March 2010: The fact is, you lost your trust in him and thats not something he can regain with a few contrite conversations. It can take years to rebuild trust. Even worse that it happened at a time when you needed him to be there for you and you were probably ... (read in full...)

Will texting an ex give him hope of getting back together? That is not my intention.

A.   31 March 2010: Hitting her is a weakness you have because you arent intelligent enough to figure out another way to solve the problem. She will only put up with being hurt so many times and then she will leave you. So if you want to keep her, learn how to control ... (read in full...)

A.   31 March 2010: Speak to your boyfriend and ask him if he loves you. And get him to explain what it is about you that he loves. It does sound strange that he only said it once and that was a week after you said you wouldnt have sex unless he felt the same. He may ... (read in full...)

A.   31 March 2010: He may have acted in haste by securing you with a proposal. Then when he went home, he lost the courage to tell his family what he had done. If he loved you he would want to be with you and he would want you to meet his family. I think he may have ... (read in full...)

A.   23 March 2010: Im not sure why you feel a fool. I think its human nature to ask a partner if they find others attractive. Most, if being honest, will say they find atleast some other women or men attractive. Your partners reaction sounds over the top though. But ... (read in full...)

A.   3 February 2010: You will probably leap to his defence but i get the feeling, reading between the lines. That your bf might not be as romantic as you would wish. Hence Valentines Day being a biggy for you. Thats understandable. In most relationships if they are good ... (read in full...)
