I can't bear the thought of him kissing another girl!

Q.   Do you think that kissing is cheating? When I was with my ex, I would have firmly said no - I really didn't think kisses meant that much and weren't personal, I kissed other people and he did too, it was never sober or with the same person more...

A.   23 December 2013: I consider kissing cheating IF you are in a relationship where either ONE: the two of you have NOT yet established what "cheating" means in regards to your specific relationship or TWO: You kiss another person despite knowing your significant other ... (read in full...)

Is my boyfriend trying to punish me?

Q.   Hi, I was with my exboyfriend around 10 months. In this time we broke up 3 times. Firstly he broke up with me after 4 months because I couldn't go to the cinema (i have a one year old and my parents couldn't baby sit) but I could on the thursday but ...

A.   12 February 2013: iAmHereToHelpYou said everything that needed to be said and more, but I'd still like to add my bit: This man sounds like he is controlling and thus abusive. Breaking up with someone because they can't go to the movies is absolutely ridic... (read in full...)

Tormented by jealous thoughts - please help

Q.   I'm really struggling to deal with my paranoid and jealous thoughts at the moment. I've been with my partner for over 3 years now and we got engaged in November, but for some reason I just can't stop thinking that he is cheating on me or up to no ...

A.   11 February 2013: You need to really think about this long and hard before you tie the knot. If you can't trust him, all this is going to do is push him away and continue to make you feel paranoid. What kind of a life is that? There is a chance he is cheating, as ... (read in full...)

A.   11 February 2013: I went through a terrible breakup from a man I was with for 3 years. It took me a long time to get over him but when I did I felt renewed, and fresh. I felt like all the pain I went through mourning my loss had not been in vain because I was ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi All In June i found out my boyfriend of 15 months had been having an affair... or infact i should say up until febuary he was leading a double life and i infact was his mistress. He had a girlfriend when he met me and managed to hide it until...

A.   16 September 2012: I think it is very sad that you have decided to continue the relationship with this filth. Do you think he will never cheat on you? Do you think you are the special one who made him change? You should have dumped him when you found out what he ... (read in full...)

I'm having a hard time with using Twitter as a way of communicating with my boyfriend.

Q.   I'm have a hard time with using Twitter as a way of communicating with my boyfriend. We see each other often, text, call and email, but also use Twitter as the majority of our circle of friends use it. Most of the time I really enjoy using it, ...

A.   16 September 2012: If you can't trust him then why are you with him? If your answer to this question is: "But I do trust him", Then: If you know he is faithful and he's never done anything to make you feel like you can't trust him, then why stress yourself out and ... (read in full...)

A.   16 September 2012: Your post is very confusing. So he is afraid of continuing the relationship because of the distance? He's afraid to invest a bunch of money for your relationships' future? Is it because he was buying everything for you guys and doesn't want to ... (read in full...)

A.   16 September 2012: You should move on. You will meet more boys in your future. You will probably date several of them, have long-term relationships with others and eventually marry someone many years from now. You are young. DON'T waste your teenage years in a serious ... (read in full...)

Girls have you ever approached a guy and had him reject you?

Q.   Girls have you ever approached a guy and had him reject you? I am not talking about being dumped. I am talking about when you first meet a guy, you put yourself out there and ask him out and he shoots you down. I have this theory. Most girls se...

A.   16 September 2012: You are right when you say that women do not typically have this kind of experience when they are growing up. Although there are some girls who approach guys they don't know and ask them out, I was not one of these girls and I didn't know very many ... (read in full...)

How can I show her that she means more to me than a simple, meaningless fling?

Q.   I'm a scorpio male, late twenties. and for the past year i've been infatuated with a taurus woman i work with. Everything she does is simply fascinating to me. I find myself watching her and trying to read her and understand her, but there is ...

A.   16 September 2012: If I were you I would SLOW down. She is obviously NOT in the right mindset/time in her life to begin a serious relationship. Whether she has been "brain-washed" by her family or not, you need to respect her boundaries. I don't blame her for being so ... (read in full...)

Q.   so yesterday i found out my boyfriend did coke.... i had heard this from my friend and literally fought with her because i didnt believe it. then i asked my boyfriend and he told me that it was true but he would never do it again. i got very angry. ...

A.   16 September 2012: If it bothers you that he is doing drugs then break up with him. I know you care about him (when I was your age I was in a 3-year relationship with my "high school sweet heart" which ended and now I realize he wasn't right for me), but he most like... (read in full...)

I need her back!! But her Tumblr account scares me..

Q.   I miss her so much and I know she misses me. She texts me all the time and I dont answer. She calls me occasionally at night and I ignore it. I dont know what to say to get her back. I feel if I talk to her I am just comforting her. That she will be ...

A.   20 October 2011: Well sorry I didn't come back and read this sooner (same girl as before). To tell the absolute honest truth: You probably lost her forever. And also, I would have broken up with you too =/ I didn't realize YOU were the bad guy in this. And... (read in full...)

A.   4 October 2011: I need more information than this! Like, what happened to make you both break up? Who dumped who? If you know she still loves you, and you love her, then ask her if she wants to meet up with you for lunch or something. Try to talk everything out. ... (read in full...)

Girlfriend uses emotional blackmail and I'm not sure how to deal with it anymore

Q.   We’ve been dating for about 15 months. I am 27. My gf is 26. We attended my friends’ wedding. I know both the groom and bride. My gf came along as my guest, but she didn’t know neither of them. The wedding was ending since other guests were ...

A.   4 October 2011: To be quite frank you should dump her now. She is trying to have complete control over you. She controlled when you left YOUR friends' wedding when she was merely a guest, she controlled the heat in the car, knowing it made you uncomfortable, and ... (read in full...)

Girfriend acting distant

Q.   Hello, My girlfriend and I have been together for over a year. Everything has been fine pretty much the whole time. But she has been acting a little weird/distant for the past week. This is the third time she has been this way in the past 4 months. ...

A.   15 September 2011: I understand how you feel. You feel neglected and ignored and it's not fair. And you're completely right. She can't expect you to be okay with her behavior. It sounds to me that she expects you to be there when it's convenient for HER, disregarding ... (read in full...)

Feeling guilty about masturbating to girls I know?

Q.   I'm 13, and I've been masturbating for a bit now, and I've decided to be ethical about it, and not use porn. So I've been imagining girls I know. It works, well! But afterword I feel guilty about it. 'Cuz one is someone I've known for a while. I ...

A.   15 September 2011: It's completely normal to do this. I'm sure EVERY guy and many girls have. Don't feel bad for just being human. But yeah like the other girl said, don't tell her or anybody you do this. Might start fights or you might lose her as a friend f... (read in full...)

I'm a reformed player and I'm completely in love with my ex, who has moved on with her life..

Q.   I am absolutely still in love with my ex girlfriend. We have been broken up for a year and 9 months. We havent spoken in about 4 months and our last conversation (by email) was civil at the begining, but grew very tense very quickly. This will pr...

A.   15 September 2011: It makes sense to why she wants nothing to do with you. She had to pay a big price(dealing with being CHEATED ON)before you genuinely fell for her, and finally changed your ways and became a man someone can trust. But how would she know this now? In ... (read in full...)

Traveling girlfriend's lazy communication is making me nervous!

Q.   My girlfriend has gone traveling for 6 weeks to central America.We have been seeing each other for 4 months in what has been a whirlwind romance, we have both declared our love and said that we would be faithful. All was well sending emails, ...

A.   29 August 2011: Well I personally would have emailed you back by now. I'm the kind of girl who would NEVER make my boyfriend wait more than a few days to get a personal email from me saying "I love you and miss you". Or a phone call. Although she is probably... (read in full...)

Met him while on vacation -- should I try to contact him?

Q.   So I just got back from a vacation and I don't know what my next move should be. I'm going to try and keep this short but this is all the relevant information. I met this guy the second day I was there (I was there for a week). He was really n...

A.   29 August 2011: Well seeing as you're only 15, I don't think you should even bother. You're going to meet a lot of guys in your life who will impress you. My best advice to you, having been 15 and completely understanding how you feel at that age, would be to... (read in full...)

I've realized I have feelings for him -- is it too late?

Q.   I need some advice about my best guy friend. lets say his name is frank. I have known frank for about 10 years and we have been best friends we always go to each other about advice about everything. We went off to different colleges last year and ...

A.   29 August 2011: All you can do in this situation is allow him to come to you if he wants. You've messed with his heart by pulling him back and forth. Perhaps he's had enough of your indecisiveness, and is trying to move on. I would suggest that you send him a l... (read in full...)

I let him in, and now I'm wondering if he's run away

Q.   I've been reflecting upon past relationships after things with my current interest seem to be going awry. I'm completely confused. I've been told that I give myself too easily and quickly and let's face it once sex comes into the equation, it's easy ...

A.   29 August 2011: I think there are two possible explanations. Either 1. He is very busy or lost his phone or something that would interfere with him getting in contact with you. Or 2. He's just not that into you. Honestly, he might be using you. Or perhaps he thoug... (read in full...)
