I'm 29 and born and raised in California.

I've gone through quite a few relationships! Some were great and some were down right terrible!

I really enjoy trying to help people get through relationship woes. Sometimes they can be life consuming and everyone can use a little help from time-to-time.

She's on birth control, but the condom slipped... Should we be worried?

Q.   My fiance and I were having sex yesterday. We used a condom, but when I came, it started to slide off. It had slid almost halfway off by the time I pulled out. We're worried that some may have come out of the top and gotten inside her. She takes ...

A.   23 December 2011: No, if she takes BC everyday like she's supposed to, you shouldn't worry. In very rare cases, some women still conceive. I've always taken BC correctly and have never become pregnant, and that was while not being careful at all.... (read in full...)

I fell asleep while talking to the guy, do I contact him or wait for him to contact me?

A.   18 December 2011: Yeah, text him and apologize for falling asleep. If someone (guy, girl, or whatever) fell asleep on the phone while I was talking to them, I wouldn't go out of my way to call them back.... (read in full...)

My ex didn't wish me a happy birthday and it really hurts me!

Q.   Why do I feel so upset about this? am I overreacting? So is my birthday today and my ex boyfriend didn't even wish me a happy birthday. He dumped me saying he didn't want a relationship. But I found out he lied and cheated on me. On ...

A.   18 December 2011: Umm you told him you didn't want to have a friendship with him--so that's probably why he didn't bother to wish you a happy birthday. I'm assuming you two broke up fairly recently? He didn't have enough respect for you before and cheated on you, ... (read in full...)

Q.   my good friend and my ex are getting friendly..... and hiding it, i know about and confronted them and they say they are just mates at the moment. my friends tell me that if our friendship is going to get awkward then mates is all they will stay. ...

A.   18 December 2011: I don't know what kind of friends you have...but normally, your friend's ex is off limits. I think you should drop him and tell your friend that you've still been sleeping with him and drop her too. Then they can go on with their lives and you ... (read in full...)

BF broke up blaming his job and family stress. Can or should I get him back?

Q.   My boyfriend and I were doing well for about a year (anniversary would have been Thurs). We had made plans that he intiated for the holidays, had talked about the future, etc. frequently. Last Saturday, after a Christmas party he said he didn't ...

A.   17 December 2011: I would stay away from the "you seem depressed and should get some help" message. Personally, I think you should just give him some space for now, there's no need to start any sort of overwhelming diaglogue with someone who's already overwhelmed. ... (read in full...)

I know I am using her, how do I get out of this?

Q.   I'm in a very difficult situation right now. I've been dating a girl now for 3 months, she's more of a rebound gf since I just got out of a long term relationship prior to meeting my new gf. The problem is I don't love her at all. I think she's a ...

A.   17 December 2011: I think you should break up with her sooner than later. She is going to be totally confused when you take her on a date and then break up with her--it's actually kind of mean if you decide to do that. Just do it now and quit leading her on.... (read in full...)

Do you know anyone who has many college degrees, but is working in a job far below his potential???

Q.   Hello all, This is a question on career options. I know...I know...this site is mainly dedicated to relationships/love/sex questions. But I am posting a career question here as my experience with this site has been good so far and I get the most s...

A.   4 December 2011: I think of it this way: experience is what counts and having a degree is an extra unless it's very particular--like an engineer. People can blame the economy but if you have no job experience, you're going to be put in an entry level position. ... (read in full...)

Tired of his games but don't want to let him go

Q.   I,m sick of my man playing stupid games with me but I love him too much to let him go. He flirts with other girls, and it only suits him when we meet. One of my friends suggested I get my own back. He said that I should Ban Sex, ignore him at times ...

A.   26 November 2011: None of that stuff worked because he doesn't care. If you refuse to leave him then you enjoy being walked all over because he won't change. Here's a strange idea, instead of playing games you could just...I don't know...talk to him.... (read in full...)

Could use a little advice on what to do after my first date...

A.   24 November 2011: Don't worry about the balding thing--you and many other guys are balding, it's pretty common. What made you think she was expecting someone else? I think it's okay to send her a text saying something like "Happy Thanksgiving." It's a holiday ... (read in full...)

Duped Wife? Or not?

Q.   I am married for a little under 4 years. I found out my husband has cheated on me from the beginning. He is one of these people who find it easier to "blame" me rather than to take any responsibility other than "I'm sick" routine. Although he ...

A.   14 November 2011: No! You're definitely not devious for not disclosing your plans to him. The marriage is basically over so now you're just preparing for what you need to do to move on with your life--nothing wrong with that. You're nice enough already not having ... (read in full...)

He's really slow at taking the hint

Q.   Ok I'll get right to it! My boyfriend is the shy, quiet, reserved, sweet, tall, mysterious, handsome type of guy. We've been good friends for a year and started *officially dating a month ago. Thing is I'm his first girlfriend and he knows I've had ...

A.   14 November 2011: Instead of hinting you need to have a conversation with him. It's better that you learn sooner or later, that men especially don't take hints--you need to tell them. Tell him what's on your mind and what you told us. You understand that he'... (read in full...)

A.   14 November 2011: You're afraid he told someone you have Asperger's? He may or may not have--but it's really NOT a big deal. If that is what you disclosed to him in your email, just to make yourself feel better, write him again and explain that what you wrote to ... (read in full...)

Is being loud a bad thing?

Q.   Is there a problem with being too loud during sex? My boyfriend and I don't have sex like we used to because he said I'm too loud and his roomates are home and we all live together. ...

A.   14 November 2011: Well it usually makes everyone in the house uncomfortable and probably leads to them teasing him about it--which they are probably disrespecting you in a way if they're making fun of him about it. I had a roommate who started dating a guy and ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have had a boyfriend for 16 months and it had a rocky start (never having had "i love you" from parents, grandparents, siblings or past boyfriend). His ex-boyfriend from 2 years ago has non-stop been a real pain in the @$$. Constantly texting ...

A.   13 November 2011: Your boyfriend should document every time he calls/texts whatever it may be--he needs to make clear in his phone calls/texts that he does not want him to contact him anymore and to leave him alone. Unfortunately, I don't think you can even get... (read in full...)

A.   11 November 2011: Honestly, the first part you tried to explain about when you started your pill--way too hard to follow and I'm really not even sure if it's relevant. But you might want to try to explain again when you took your pill. There are usually only two ... (read in full...)

A.   30 October 2011: Maybe it's time to give him an ultimatum--he gets help or you're leaving him. I understand you love him, but you can only take so much. He has a serious problem obviously, so if you do love him, you'll help him seek help. There's plenty o... (read in full...)
