A.   12 March 2008: I don't think you did anything wrong other falling for a loser. think about he talks to you about maturity and yet he is the one in the middle of two strange relationships. You say that he is cold to you when you are apart but somewhat romantic when ... (read in full...)

It's not you... It's me?!

Q.   After dating a guy for a month, having a blast together and talking about future dates and fun plans together... I had a "bad day" at work and was really quiet while spending time with him that evening and it upset him in the long run - ...

A.   12 March 2008: You totally correct. Everyone has their bad days and would have to guess he does as well. He should have appreciated the way you handled it rather than compare you to his ex. That was inconsiderate and disrespectful to you. Perhaps one of the only ... (read in full...)

Should I still pursue this guy as I had a REALLY good time or just leave him alone?

Q.   I've been flirting with a guy for several months and we finally were able to meet for sex. We have both been eager but nervous to get together, as we are both sort of shy and reserved. It ended up that he could not get it up, but gave me some ...

A.   12 March 2008: This has to be one of the worst things that can happen to a guy and yes I have been there. The wierd thing is that it never happened to me with a girl I wasn't that interested in. It only happened when I really liked her and was most concerned about ... (read in full...)

A.   12 March 2008: I suspect the real question is why he doesn't want to re-marry and if the real issue is not that he doesn't want to get married but that he doesn't want to get married now. Maybe all he needs is a little more time. He just may have the fear that ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi... I was seeing this guy over the summer who is at an Ivy league business school and I'm in art school so we're opposites. Anyway over the summer he took me out to some really nice dinners but I didn't act too interested. Then I realized I ...

A.   11 March 2008: Don't appologise and yes it is probably a lost cause. The only reason you even thinking about appologising is to maybe start the communication again and it won't work. You already knew it wasn't going anywhere but you thought you could push it along ... (read in full...)

I realy like this new guy I'm seeing but I think he might be having an affair with his friend's wife.

Q.   I realy like this new guy I'm seeing but I think he might be having an affair with his friend's wife. He talks to her and emails her more than he talks to me and when he says he is going to thier house he says her name not her husbands who he knew ...

A.   11 March 2008: Anyone here telling you they are having an affair would just be guessing. The fact that they are as open about it as they are would lead me to believe they are just very close friends. Could that get out of control someday, perhaps but that would ... (read in full...)

Q.   My boyfriend likes to choke me during sex. I told my female friend this and she said "thats hot" Is this normal? Why do people like this?...

A.   11 March 2008: Whats normal to one person is not always normal to another. If you like it keep doing it but be careful I have heard of this getting out of control and going too far which could result in permanent damage or death. If you get a chance watch the ... (read in full...)

How can I tell him to keep his comments to himself without being nasty?

Q.   I get along with my new boyfriend ok but he is not religious. He says there is no point and that I have no freedom. This upsets me that he has no faith but I try to ignore the comments. He believes we came from monkeys I do not. He believes in stem ...

A.   11 March 2008: You say you get along ok but obviously you don't. The fact that he has his beliefs and you have yours is not the basis for a breakup. However, the fact that he ridicules you for yours is. This is an issue of respect. Many couples live together quite ... (read in full...)

Q.   I can't help but feel bad that I broke up with my ex fiance. I don't ever want to be with him again because he was emotionally abusive, but the part I can't seem to forgive myself for is that I knew he wasn't a Christian from the beginning and that ...

A.   11 March 2008: You seem to be a very confused person. Why you would feel bad about breaking up with someone who didn't repsect you and abused you is bizarre. Anyone, male or female who physically or mentally abuses their mate is an asshole and should be dumped ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have been dating my boyfriend for over a year, and we have had sex. I have given oral but not received it, which was more of my choice because of me being worried about smelling bad (even though I don't think I do). Lately, I've noticed that after ...

I love my friend but her husband is dying so it would be the most inadequate moment to confess my lesbian feelings now. How can I control myself?

Q.   I'm not really sure if this is a question, i just need some advice on what i should do. I'd appreciate your input. I'm a lesbian it's something I've never hidden about my self, i'm feminine and a flirt and some times it gets misconstrued. I'...

A.   11 March 2008: It's too bad that so many people are so judgemental. To me I don't really understand gay life but I do appreciate that everyone has the right to feel as they do. As I read your posting it didn't appear to me as though you were looking for ... (read in full...)

A.   11 March 2008: Slow done lady. It's so easy for people to judge one another isn't it. Did you make mistakes, perhaps but if you had separated from your current partner I would suspect he would imagine you may have had another relationship while you were apart. The ... (read in full...)

Does she love to hate me or does she really care?

Q.   Hello all. Just needed a little advice about my ex. We were together a year and had some right ups and downs mainly because of her moods, which in turn made me moody. It wasn't very conventional as she is very independent and a little selfish, as am ...

A.   9 March 2008: I suggest you politely tell him how you feel and move on. From the sounds of it you will be doing him a favor. Think about it, you said he had been your "rock through troubled times" and yet you have never had the decency to share your feelings long ... (read in full...)

My live-in partner has cybersex and watches porn. I want to leave but he always convinces me to give him another chance!

A.   8 March 2008: Being his mistress has nothing to do with the real problem. Lots of people have relationship outside the marriage and wind up in new ones that are long and lasting every situation is different. By bringing that up you only cloud the real issue and ... (read in full...)

A.   8 March 2008: It all depends on the relationship. I think text messages are great and I answer mine as quickly as I can especially if I like the sender. Waiting days to respond makes no sense to me at all. Remember, sometimes text messages don't come through ... (read in full...)

A.   8 March 2008: To begin with a man should never hit a woman. Regarding verbal abuse, other than the visable scars from physical abuse there really isn't much difference. Actually most bruses go away after a short time but emotional abuse typically lasts a long ... (read in full...)
