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.

Q.   I'm gay and I love one of my best friends and I told them a couple of months ago. They made it clear that they aren't, but they said that they respected the fact that I'm gay. I feel awkward when ever I pass him in the halls at school and I tryed to ...

A.   20 April 2010: Based on what you said, I wouldn't say she's cheating unless you have more details. She could be waiting to call you back so she doesn't seem like such a nag because it sounds like she wants to talk to you more. If you can't see her for more than ... (read in full...)

Q.   I'm gay and I love one of my best friends and I told them a couple of months ago. They made it clear that they aren't, but they said that they respected the fact that I'm gay. I feel awkward when ever I pass him in the halls at school and I tryed to ...

A.   20 April 2010: Just like how your friends respect that you're gay, you also need to respect that they're straight and nothing is going to happen. Just come to terms that they are only friends and people that you cannot be romantically involved with. If you have ... (read in full...)

A.   20 April 2010: If he's not going to do it, then get someone else who will! I don't mean another man, but if he can't do simple chores around the house, then get someone to come to the house once a week or every other week to clean. It's usually not that ... (read in full...)

My boyfriend says he doesn't want to marry until until I get a better job

Q.   My boyfriend of four years hasn't proposed yet and doesn't know when he will. We had a discussion last night about it because I'm tired of waiting. Basically he's told me that he can't marry me unless I get a different job that pays more and is m...

A.   20 April 2010: I don't know if I would consider not being married to him a form of punishment. But, I also think it's an excuse he's using. Most men don't really care what you do for a living as long as it's a respectable job and you have some sort of goals for ... (read in full...)

I text like there's no tomorrow, and my parents get really mad!

Q.   So I've gone over my texting limit before, and my parents always get REALLY mad. I think last month I went over by 100 (not even) this time I went over by like 1,600. :( Is there a way to fix this issue?! I don't even wanna know how much it's gonna ...

A.   20 April 2010: First, get a hobby. Second, talk on the phone and text less especially if it's an entire conversation. Third, I agree with the prepaid phone, when you go over your texts, you're done and if you want more you'll have to pay for more. Otherwise, ... (read in full...)

A.   18 April 2010: You don't even know if you're gay half the time, how do you think you'd be able to spot another? At your age, it may not be as easy to tell. But I've known men from elementary school that grew up to be gay, and from the time I knew what gay was, I ... (read in full...)

A.   14 April 2010: Haha!!! You're seriously considering running away because of a phone? Believe it or not, back in my day, I didn't get a cell phone until I was 17 and back then that was young to have one. Don't you have at least a house phone? And what's this ... (read in full...)

Is sex something bonding for women?

Q.   Do women become more attached to men they've had sex with? I've had a drawn-out flirtation with a woman. We are never single at the same time. I sometimes wonder if she thinks about me (we were pretty inappropriate for a while at one point when I ...

A.   14 April 2010: Yeah, for the most part it's true. I guess for very few women it's just to "get off." But I kind of think they're full of you-know-what. If it's sex just once, then maybe not. However, there are girls that do have sex with a guy once and they ... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2010: Okay, here's another thing you should not tolerate: a guy who ignores you. If your boyfriend ignores you and gives you the silent treatment for days because he's "mad," in my opinion, is passive aggressive behavior and borderline abusive. Nothing ... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2010: He didn't fall out of love with you overnight. It sounds like you two did have a good relationship so he probably had to do something thinking before actually ending the relationship. What he is saying is true, he think you're beautiful, smart, ... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2010: If you're exclusive, then no, it's not cheating. So what if you had a one-night-stand one time and you used protection? You're an adult woman and you have your needs. Don't feel bad about it. And honestly, if any sort of relationship were to ... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2010: Umm forget the whole you don't have a chance scenario. Unless you want him to get put into jail for being a pedifile, then back off. If you're 13-15 and he's 23-25, he shouldn't be dating you anyway. Find someone closer to your age.... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2010: Sounds like unless he's in the hospital in a coma, he lost interest or another girl came along. Don't waste a text message on him, if he can't be bothered by you why should you be bothered by him?... (read in full...)

A.   12 April 2010: Hmm...well in my opinion, a guy doesn't really want to be your friend (or even your best friend for that matter) if he doesn't have at least some feelings for you. I think once you're done with school you can contact him. Be careful not to bombard ... (read in full...)

A.   11 April 2010: Unless he's THAT afraid of being hurt and just drops the relationship because of that, then I guess it's a possibility. But, I think that's a lame excuse and he's using that to hide his real reasons. He just might not be ready for a relationship ... (read in full...)

A.   5 April 2010: Usually it has to do with size...small penises usually have that problem. But if he isn't on the smaller side, I agree, it has to do with angle. If you're on top and you're sitting to far back or too high, it can happen. Same with not being fully ... (read in full...)

A.   4 April 2010: Your mother is just over protective. My parents were the same way. There's really probably nothing you can do, believe me, I tried it all back then. Just deal with it, you're a child and unfortunately, your mother has a say in your social life. ... (read in full...)

A.   4 April 2010: That's a better question for a therapist. But since you've been having this so-called emotional affair for the past 13-years while you've been married and he's engaged, sounds to me like you two deserve one another. Maybe when you're together you ... (read in full...)

A.   4 April 2010: So it kind of sounds to me that you're settling with her so you won't be alone again. If you're with the right person, you shouldn't feel that way. So I think you have a decision to make; stay with her and continue feeling the way that you do, or ... (read in full...)
