*hoebe Halliwell's profile:

Hey

My real name is obviously NOT Phoebe Halliwell and no, I'm not Alyssa Milano either, though it'd be awesome if I were. I chose this name (Phoebe Halliwell) because she's a strong character and has been through some tough times in love herself, coming out stronger and still believing.

I'm young, single and live in the UK. I don't have any form of qualification, just a big heart and the occassional spare moment!

I have a pretty open mind and can relate to a lot of people. I'm the right side of 25 and have had some serious ups and downs! I'm just here to give you guys a fresh pair of eyes on a situation that seems to have no solution, sometimes that's all you need :)

Peace,

Phoebe

*NOTE* I'm going back to school for a while to try and change my career path. This means I won't be answering as quickly as I usually do but will still accept private e-mails from those seeking my advice.

A.   7 August 2010: I agree with the others. If he forced you, tell someone. It's worrying you, tell someone. If it didn't feel right, my guess is it wasn't. The fact that you've been together for a few years shouldn't be a deciding factor on what you do toge... (read in full...)

I was too controlling and she left me. Now what can I do?

Q.   Well I can't really ask what to do without first explaining my situation. My ex-girlfriend was with me for almost 2 years. One month in our relationship she left me for my best friend. A week after THAT, he broke up with her and she begged to ha...

A.   7 August 2010: hey again :) Have you tried mending bridges with your best friend? You must have been best friends for a reason and you shouldn't let a girl have come between you. Talk to him and make sure you both try to put friendship before girls next time. If... (read in full...)

Married life has become a nightmare. Please, anybody with any suggestions?

Q.   I have been with my husband since i was 16. we have been married for almost 3 years now our baby boy is about to turn 3. He told me the only reason he asked me to marry him was b/c "it was the right thing to do". I know he is not happy. He tells me...

A.   6 August 2010: Oh dear :( He sounds like a treat! Honey, it seems to me that he's taking out his fustration on you. Maybe being married so young he feels trapped and that he can't go out and enjoy himself. This is no excuse for how he's treating you. Was he... (read in full...)

Confused about sexuality. What am I really?

A.   6 August 2010: Hey :) I agree with marieclaire in that maybe you're not ready for that kind of relationship. It's ok to be confused, at 16 I wasn't sure who I was either (not in a sexuality sense but just knowing myself, what kind of person I am). Maybe instead ... (read in full...)

A.   6 August 2010: Hey :) Guys love to flirt and laugh and play around. I knew this guy who once did all that with me to see if I'd do it back so he'd feel good about himself, that he was attractive etc. I know it can be scary, but if you had such a good conn... (read in full...)

A.   5 August 2010: Hey :) It sounds to me like your friend is feeling a little threatened by you! She says she's kissed both of them, doesn't mean it's true. It sounds very suspect that she's told you all these things to warn you off this guy that she likes, and then... (read in full...)

A.   5 August 2010: hey :) To be honest, your girlfriend doesn't sound like the nicest person. She left you for your best friend? You don't treat people you care about like that. I can understand your controlling actions, not wanting to lose her. It shows that you... (read in full...)

Can you rekindle a friendship the same way you'd rekindle a romance?

Q.   Is it possible to rekindle a friendship in a similar fashion one might try to rekindle a romantic relationship? Or are the two inherently different enough that the same approach can't be used in both cases. ...

A.   5 August 2010: hey :) well, firstly, friendships and romantic relationships are different so I doubt the "same approach" can be used to re-kindle both! You have to remember the reason you were friends with this person and also why you maybe drifted apart. B... (read in full...)

A.   5 August 2010: I agree with what's been said already. College life is stressful! It'll test your relationship whether you're living together or not. I think it would be good for you to each have your own space to go to at times when you just need to think or feel ... (read in full...)

A.   9 July 2010: Hi. I agree with Denise32. You sound perfectly nice and genuine, which will set you apart from all the idiotic guys your age out there anyway, so you might end up finding yourself a girlfriend while looking for a best friend anyway! The first th... (read in full...)
